Excerpt from History of the Valley of the Mississippi "A very lucid and useful hand-book. Its popular language, and exclusion of difficult terminology are decided recommendations. Its success is good evidence of the value of the work." - N. Y. Times. "This appears to be a very successful publication. It has now reached its third edition, which is a revised and enlarged one; and we learn from the title page that eight thousand copies have been published. Various additions have been made to the Hom opathic directions, and the anatomical part of the work has been illustrated with engravings. The work has received the approbation of several of our most eminent practitioners." - Evening Post. "A nicely printed volume, and it appears to be a finished one of its kind. It embraces all possible directions for the treatment of diseases, with elaborate descriptions of symptoms, and an abridged Materia Medica." - Boston Post. "It is very comprehensive and very explicit." - N. Y. Evangelist. "Though not at present exclusively confined to the medical profession, we have been consulted, during the past year, in some fifty or sixty cases, some of which, according to the opinion of the far-sighted and sagacious, were very bad and about to die, and would die if trusted to Hom opathy, and some were hopeless, which are now a wonder unto many in the change which the hom opathic treatment alone effected. Wow what of all this? Why, just this, we have used Dr. Pulte's book for our Directory; we have tested it as a safe counselor; - and we say to our friends who have wished we would get up a book for them, just get Pulte's Domestic Physician and the remedies, and set up for yourselves." - Cattaraugus Chronicle. "I have recommended it to my patients as being - for conciseness, precision, and practical utility - unsurpassed either in my native or adopted country." - Dr. Granger of St. Louis. "The plan and execution of Pulte's Hom opathic Domestic Physician, render it in my opinion the best work of its kind extant for popular use. "I have found, upon careful perusal, 'The Domestic Physician, ' by Dr. Pulte, to be concise and comprehensive in its description of diseases, and accurate in the application of remedies; but its chief advantage over other works of the same design, appears to me, to be the facility with which it is understood by the lay practitioner. I consider it a valuable and useful book of reference in domestic practice. The professional ability and extensive practical experience of the author, are alone sufficient recommendation for its value.
