Excerpt from Atlantic City as a Winter Health Resort: Embracing Official Reports, Meteorological Tables, &C., Concerning the Climate of Atlantic City, N. J., The Testimony of Eminent Physicians as to Its Effects on Various Forms of Disease, Hygienic Hints for Invalids at the Seashore

Furthermore, in order to determine as definitely as possible the benefit to be derived from the climate by various Classes of invalids, and especially by persons afflicted with pulmonary complaints, I addressed inquiries to many eminent physicians who had been in the habit of sending patients to Atlantic City in the winter and spring as well as in the summer, asking them to report the number of cases sent here, the proportion cured or benefited, the propor tion aggravated if any, and the proportion which had remained stationary.

The replies were not in point of fullness all I had hoped to obtain, but, together with the meteorological data previously accumulated, they were given to the profession in an article first published in the Philadelphia Medical Times, for December 18th, 1880, and entitled Winter Health Resorts The climate of Atlantic City and its effects on Pulmonary Diseases.
