City of Chicago Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium: Its History and Provisions is a historical account of the tuberculosis sanitarium established by the city of Chicago in the early 1900s. Written by Theodore Bernard Sachs, a physician and public health advocate, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the sanitarium's founding, development, and operations. The book describes the challenges faced by the city in combating the tuberculosis epidemic, including the lack of adequate treatment facilities and the stigma associated with the disease. It details the efforts of public health officials and community leaders to establish a municipal sanitarium that would provide care for tuberculosis patients and help prevent the spread of the disease. The book also provides a detailed description of the sanitarium's facilities, including its wards, operating rooms, and laboratories. It discusses the medical treatments and therapies used to treat tuberculosis patients, as well as the role of nursing staff and other healthcare professionals in the care of patients. Overall, City of Chicago Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium: Its History and Provisions is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of public health and the efforts to combat tuberculosis in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
