Synopsis
Excerpt from Minnesota as a Home for Invalids
An actor who was about to personate Othello, remained an unusual time in the dressing-room. The audience becoming impatient and clamorous, necessitated a visit of the manager to the room of the tardy tragedian, whom he found, to his great surprise, blacking himself from head to foot.
"What does this mean?" said the manager. "It means," replied the actor, "that I cannot enter into the spirit of this piece unless I am black all over."
Thus would we account for our introductory chapters. We could not write of a climate for consumptives unless we first considered the disease, its nature, and peculiarities.
We trust that our readers will follow us through the introductory chapters, as the following chapters presuppose a knowledge of consumption as it is now understood.
Thus far but little has been written of Minnesota from a professional standpoint.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of tuberculosis, particularly its causes and the treatment of consumption in various climates. The author argues that a weakened state of health prepares the system for the development of tuberculosis, as opposed to believing it is the initial cause. The author also posits that cold and moisture are the main drivers of the disease, with consumption being more frequent in regions where these elements are prevalent. The book emphasizes the importance of selecting the right climate for those suffering from consumption, with the goal of finding a balance that assists the body in healing without causing further harm. According to the author, a climate that is too sedative can hinder progress and ultimately do more harm than good. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the causes, treatments, and climatic considerations for consumption, offering valuable insights for those seeking a deeper understanding of the disease and its management. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332247646_0
