* George Gregory was physician to the Small Pox and Vaccination Hospital in London for many years. This work contains much material on the history of smallpox and vaccination as well as its status and treatment in the mid 19th century. Other diseases considered include measles and scarlet fever. Bloomfield (p. 432) notes that Gregory gives an excellent description of measles which on three counts he distinguishes from scarlet fever. £75 |
