Blockley Days: Memories And Impressions Of A Resident Physician, 1883-1884 is a book written by Arthur Ames Bliss and published in 1916. The book is a memoir of Bliss's experiences as a resident physician at the Blockley Almshouse Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the years 1883-1884. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Bliss's time at Blockley. The chapters cover topics such as the hospital's history, the patients and their illnesses, the medical treatments used at the time, and the daily life of a resident physician. Bliss's writing style is descriptive and engaging, providing readers with a vivid picture of what life was like at Blockley during the late 19th century. He also includes anecdotes and personal reflections that give readers a sense of his own experiences and emotions during his time at the hospital. Overall, Blockley Days is a fascinating glimpse into the history of medicine and healthcare in the United States, as well as a compelling personal memoir of one doctor's experiences in a challenging and rewarding environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
