A Domestic Narrative Of The Life Of Samuel Bard is a biographical work written by John McVickar and published in 1822. The book tells the story of Samuel Bard, a prominent physician and founder of the first medical school in New York City. The narrative is presented as a series of letters written by Bard to his wife and children, providing an intimate look into his personal and professional life. The book covers Bard's childhood, education, and early medical career, as well as his involvement in the American Revolution and his service as a physician to George Washington. It also details his role in the establishment of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of New York, and his work as a philanthropist and advocate for public health. Throughout the book, Bard's letters reveal his deep love for his family, his dedication to his patients, and his unwavering commitment to the advancement of medicine. McVickar's narrative provides a fascinating insight into the life of a pioneering physician and his contributions to the development of medical education in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
