Excerpt from Robert Burns and the Medical Profession
In the execution of my task, the materials for which are, in many instances, difficult to find, and not always accessible, I have tried to state the case temperately and fairly for all concerned. How far I have succeeded, the reader must be the judge.
That these pages are a perfect or complete statement of the inquiry, Robert Burns and the Medical Profession, I do not for a moment contend. In my researches amid Burns bibliographies, library catalogues, and other dry-as-dust out of-the-way nooks and corners of book-shelves, it is probable that I have missed out some contribution but the statement is as complete as, with care and labour, I have been able to make it.
