Описание: John Butter was an early nineteenth-century surgeon and physician who founded the Plymouth Royal Eye Infirmary, one of the earliest eye hospitals in Britain. In his Memoir, Butter tells about his long career in medicine, from his early training to his wide-ranging medical practice and his advanced eye treatments. He also describes his life outside medicine: his work with the South Devon Militia (including their involvement with the Luddites), his travels in France and Italy, his love of dogs and his passion for hunting. Most important of all is the light he sheds on medicine in the early nineteenth century. He arguably introduced the stethoscope to Britain and performed a huge variety of treatments, ranging from a mastectomy without anaesthetic to trepanning, blood-letting, cataract removal and other eye procedures. The Memoir is privately-owned and is now published for the first time, with an Introduction which explains the background to Butter's life and career.

Описание: Sailing north from Virginia with his family in search of Squanto and Samoset, Aleyn Jamess ship Virginia is wrecked on the outer banks of Cape Cod, where his family is welcomed to the colony of New Plymouth by newly-arrived pilgrims. Aleyn, his soon-to-be wife Acoona and their children Alan and Tara help to establish a trading post near the site of the failed Popham colony at Fort St. George and become valued members of the community-until the new lives theyve built for themselves are threatened by the looming Pequot War. In the fourth book of The Colonies series, readers will see the aging Aleyn James and Acoona Stonefire take a step back and watch their children, Alan and Tara, forge new lives for themselves in the still-wild and often-unforgiving English colonies. Exploring the time leading to King Philips War, thought to be the deadliest of the colonial wars, Noreaster not only transitions to the next generation of the James family but the next phase in the development of America.
