The Beloved Physician: Edward Livingston Trudeau is a biographical book written by Stephen Chalmers and published in 1916. The book tells the story of Edward Livingston Trudeau, a physician who dedicated his life to studying and treating tuberculosis, a deadly disease that was rampant in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book chronicles Trudeau's life, from his childhood in New York to his education at Columbia University and his travels to Europe to study medicine. It also details his battle with tuberculosis, which he contracted while treating patients in the Adirondack Mountains. Trudeau's determination to find a cure for tuberculosis led him to establish the first sanatorium in the United States, the Adirondack Cottage Sanitarium. The book describes how he used his own experiences as a patient to develop new treatments and therapies for the disease. The Beloved Physician also explores Trudeau's personal life, including his marriage to Katherine L. Brinckerhoff and the birth of their children. It also delves into his friendships with notable figures such as Robert Louis Stevenson and John Muir. Overall, The Beloved Physician: Edward Livingston Trudeau is a comprehensive biography of a pioneering physician who made significant contributions to the field of medicine and the fight against tuberculosis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
