Unclipped jacket with sunned spine and some chips, tears, and rubbing. THE STORY OF A HOSPITAL as renowned as the Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary is a romantic one, especially since it also parallels the social history of the town on the banks of the Nith where famous men like Robert Burns, Robert the Bruce, Paul Jones, Henry Duncan, J. M. Barrie and many more once walked and lived. Now, 200 years after its foundation in 1776 the two centuries of hospital life and work are depicted in this fascinating bicentenary chronicle, mirroring the toil and labour, lives and progress of the men, women and children of Dumfries and Galloway who had links with this historic hospital. The Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary - The First 200 Years is the result of careful research into the social registers of the period, and into the personal memoirs and memories of men and women who helped run the various hospitals by the Nith, and create the modern General Hospital that now assumes the proud name of its predecessors. The Royal visit to Open the Infirmary proved a welcome climax to two centuries of healing by many generations. All who know, remember and are proud of this historic hospital both at home in Scotland, and among the thousands of its former staff and patients overseas, will want to have The Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary - The First 200 Years as a permanent reminder and souvenir of great days of the late 18th, the 19th and 20th centuries.
