Item description from seller

Small quarto / large octavo in green cloth with gilded titles to spine; vii, 588 p. ill. Uncommon. Published a year after the author's death. Van Buren (1819-1883) was a distinguished American surgeon. "President Abraham Lincoln offered to make Van Buren Surgeon General at the time of the war, and on his refusal consulted him with regard to the appointment. In 1865 he published Contributions to Practical Surgery, in 1870 Lectures on Diseases of the Rectum, and in 1874, in conjunction with Dr. Edward L. Keyes, a text-book on genito-urinary surgery. His contributions to medical periodical literature were frequent. He became a Catholic early in his medical career and remained one for the rest of his life. He was consulting surgeon to many of the prominent New York City hospitals, and had been president of the Pathological Society, vice-president of the New York Academy of Medicine, and corresponding member of the Soci?t? de Chirurgie of Paris, an honour that had been conferred on only one American before him." -- Wikipedia. so.
