Excerpt from Student's Guide to the Practice of Midwifery
This Manual is written mainly for the instruction of Students, though I hope it may sometimes be found of service to Practitioners whose scant leisure may make it difficult for them to consult larger works.
My endeavor has been to present as complete a View of obstetrics as the compass of a Manual would permit.
