The Doctor’s World: The Life and Times of Claver Morris, 1659 - 1727
Autor Paul Hylanden Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 noi 2022
Claver Morris was a man of many talents: immensely enterprising, knowledgeable, sociable and loving. His house was always filled with music, guests and entertainments. Yet he was often faced with disputes and troubles partly of his own making — as when he courted a bishop’s daughter, or stole some land to build his Queen Anne house.
The Doctor’s World provides a unique portrait of a physician living and working through the political and religious turmoils that beset the nation at the turn of the eighteenth century. Tales of medical treatments, clandestine marriages and self-serving priests are entwined with famous acts of treason and rebellion, and the pleasures and tragedies of daily life.
This meticulously researched book will appeal to all readers of social, political, medical and family history.
