An American Physician In Turkey: A Narrative Of Adventures In Peace And In War is a book written by Clarence Douglas Ussher, an American physician who lived and worked in Turkey during the early 20th century. The book is a memoir that recounts Ussher's experiences in Turkey, both during times of peace and war. Ussher's narrative is divided into two parts: the first part covers his experiences in Turkey from 1904 to 1914, during which he worked as a physician in various parts of the country, including Istanbul, Smyrna, and Adana. During this time, Ussher describes his interactions with the local people, his experiences with the Ottoman Empire's healthcare system, and his observations about the country's culture and customs.The second part of the book covers Ussher's experiences during World War I, when he served as a medical officer in the Ottoman Army. Ussher provides a detailed account of his experiences during the war, including his work treating wounded soldiers, his experiences on the front lines, and his interactions with Turkish military officials.Throughout the book, Ussher provides a unique perspective on Turkey during a time of significant political and social change. He offers insights into the country's history, culture, and politics, as well as his own personal experiences as an American physician living and working in Turkey. Overall, An American Physician In Turkey is a fascinating and informative memoir that provides a valuable glimpse into a pivotal moment in Turkish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
