Dr. Garth: The Kit-Kat Poet, 1661-1718 is a biography written by Harvey Cushing. The book is a detailed account of the life of Sir Samuel Garth, a physician and poet who lived in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Garth was a member of the Kit-Kat Club, a group of influential politicians, writers, and artists who gathered in London during this time.The book explores Garth's life and career, from his early days as a medical student to his rise to prominence as a physician and poet. It delves into his personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and colleagues. The book also examines Garth's literary career, including his most famous work, The Dispensary, a satirical poem about the medical profession.Cushing's biography is based on extensive research, including Garth's own writings and correspondence, as well as historical records and other primary sources. It provides a fascinating look at the life and times of a notable figure in English literature and medicine, and offers insights into the social and cultural context of the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
