Reseña del libro "Portrait of Healing: Curing in the Woods (en Inglés)"
With a new Preface by Amy Catania, Executive Director of Historic Saranac Lake
Portrait of Healing chronicles the life and work of visionary physician Edward L. Trudeau, who founded the Adirondack Cottage Sanitarium, later renamed the Trudeau Sanitarium, in Saranac Lake, New York. The Sanitarium was the first of its kind in America and became the model for the treatment and cure of of tuberculosis throughout the United States. Trudeau - who also suffered from tuberculosis - spent countless hours learning to correctly identify the tubercle bacillus. He created the first laboratory in the country to be exclusively devoted to the study of the disease, and developed unprecedented scientific evidence of the interaction between the environment and tuberculosis.
This new edition of Dr. Victoria E. Rinehart's classic book features the original Foreword by Garry Trudeau, renown cartoonist and Dr. Trudeau's grandson, as well as a new preface from Executive Director of Historic Saranac Lake Museum Amy Catania. Featuring photographs and first-hand stories by nurses and patients alike, Portrait of Healing is the definitive look at the revolutionary medical work - and the people behind it - that happened in the Adirondacks and set the standard nation-wide.
