The book provides a detailed account of the West Indian Sanatorium, a healthcare facility in Barbados that was established for the treatment of tuberculosis patients during the late 19th century. The author describes the history and development of the sanatorium, including its founding, construction, and staffing. He also provides an overview of the medical treatments and procedures used to treat patients suffering from tuberculosis, as well as the daily routines and activities of patients at the sanatorium.In addition to the account of the sanatorium, the book also serves as a guide to Barbados, providing information on the island's geography, climate, history, and culture. The author includes descriptions of popular tourist destinations, such as beaches, markets, and historic landmarks, as well as practical information on transportation, accommodations, and local customs.Overall, An Account of a West Indian Sanatorium: And a Guide to Barbados offers a fascinating insight into the history of healthcare and tourism in the Caribbean during the late 19th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine or the culture and geography of Barbados.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
