Jamison was an 1878 graduate of the Medical College of Fort Wayne, and ran a practice in Manhattan. His treatments were firmly within popular American medical approaches to these problems, and included drinking lots of spring water and warm water enemas twice daily (see Hoolihan). Light soil to endpapers and to textblock edges; light edgewear to textured burgundy cloth, titled in gilt. Near fine.
