Excerpt from Climate and Health Resorts In a few instances, when it has not been practicable to give an account of a Health Resort amongst the groups dealt with in the several chapters of which this volume is composed, a brief but sufficient account of it has been introduced in the Index. I have only to express a hope that this edition will be found to merit, in some measure, the very kind and favourable opinions which were expressed of the first.

Excerpt from American Resorts: With Notes Upon Their Climate If we, as a people, would more generally seek health in our own sanitaria, and our medical men would encourage their patients so to do, the value of these places of retreat for health would soon be appreciated and their fame become widespread. For the American, the health stations in his own land are preferable in that while he is seeking benefit in a change of climate, he is at home among his own countrymen, familiar customs, language and diet, a truly inestimable advantage in many cases of sickness.

Excerpt from The Climate of Portugal and Notes on Its Health Resorts The health resorts of Portugal consist of three great groups: the climatic, the mineral-water and the sea-bathing. Compared with the size of the country, they are very numerous.

Excerpt from The Principal Southern and Swiss Health Resorts: Their Climate and Medical Aspect ON 'my return to London, after spending three Winter seasons at Nice and six at Cannes, engaged in medical practice, it occurred to me that the experience I had acquired of the influence of southern climates on invalids might form the main subject of a book not altogether wanting in medical and public utility. A Visit to Madeira and the Canary Islands afforded me an opportunity of inquiring into the character of these stations as health resorts, While a. Long acquaintance With many of the places in Switzerland, patronised by invalide in search of health, has enabled me to include them also in the present work. The Village of Dawes, situated in one' of the highest Swiss valleys, has earned for itself a, well-deserved reputation as a winter sani teriam for the treatment of bonsumption, and an account of this station Will be found in the following pages.

Excerpt from Austrian Health Resorts: Throughout the Year Chapters XIV. and XV. in this Edition have been added in place of the Chapter in the first on "The Bitter Waters of Hungary." Thus the present Edition of this book treats exclusively of noteworthy places in the Empire of Austria, many of which are seldom visited by Englishmen or Americans, and are scarcely known to them even by repute. Yet each deserves to be visited by those who journey in quest of health or variety. An invalid requiring a course of mineral waters may go to Carlsbad, Franzensbad, Marienbad, or some other Austrian Health Resort in the spring, summer, or autumn; another, to whom the grape "cure" is prescribed, may visit Voslau or Meran in the autumn; the invalid who desires sea bathing in perfection can enjoy it for several months out of the twelve at Abbazia; while any one who is in quest of a mild and pleasant winter climate may find it at Meran, or Arco, Abbazia, or Gorizia. I may add, with confidence and perfect truth, that the geniality of the people lends an additional charm to all the Health Resorts in the Empire of Austria.

Excerpt from A Handbook of Medical Climatology: Embodying Its Principles and Therapeutic Application With Scientific Data of the Chief Health Resorts of the World The non-existence of a systematic treatise on medical climatology, and the fact that this subject has engaged the author's attention for thirty years, may be advanced as the reasons for the preparation of this volume. The time, moreover, seems ripe for such an endeavor, for there is a growing appreciation both on the part of the profession and the public at large as to the value of climate in the prevention and treatment of disease, and fortunately to answer this awakening we have now accumulated accurate and extended meteorological observations upon which to found natural laws affording trustworthy conclusions. In the endeavor to accomplish the purpose above outlined the author has collated and compared climatic observations from all parts of the world up to the present time, and has sought to systematize the work of others with his own experience. It is hardly too much to say that it is possible to prescribe a climate with as much precision as a drug, and with far greater effect in appropriate cases. If the present volume contributes to the establishment of climatology in its proper place as one of the most definite and useful of the medical sciences, its purpose will be fulfilled. European nations have long since recognized the therapeutic and financial value of their health-resorts, but Americans are only now coming to appreciate the equal resources of their own continent. The United States Government observations have been conducted with wisdom, and in connection with the special climatic studies of physicians have now covered practically the entire country.

Excerpt from The Sanative Influence of Climate: With an Account of the Best Places of Resort for Invalids, in England, the South of Europe, C If such marked effects result from a change of so limited a nature as has just been noticed, it might be expected that a complete change of climate, together with the circumstances necessarily connected with it, should produce still more important results in the improvement of health and the alleviation and cure of disease. In this expectation also we are borne out by experience. Unfortunately for the character of Climate as a remedy, it has too often been resorted to as a last resource, and not unfrequently been misapplied in cases wherein it would otherwise have been capable of yielding essential service. Patients who might derive much benefit from climate are Often sent abroad without proper directions regarding the situa tion most suited to their complaints, and altogether uninstructed respecting various circumstances, a due attention to which is necessary to give full effect to the best-selected Climate.
