2nd edition. Provenance: Birmingham Medical Institute (with accompanying bookplate and stamp). Very good copy in the original gilt-blocked cloth. Spine bands and panel edges somewhat rubbed and dust-toned as with age. Remains quite well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and strong. Notes; Decorated endpapers. Issued also i…n French under title: La dernière maladie de Frederic le Noble. Summary; Sir Morell Mackenzie was a British physician, one of the pioneers of laryngology in Britain. After undertaking the medical course at the London Hospital and becoming a member of the Royal College of Surgeons in 1858, he studied abroad in Paris, Vienna and Budapest where he learned the use of the newly-invented laryngoscope. Returning to London in 1862, he worked at the London Hospital and earned his degree in medicine. In 1863 he won the Jacksonian prize at the Royal College of Surgeons for an essay on the Pathology and Treatment of Diseases of the Larynx. In 1863 the Throat Hospital in King Street was founded, largely owing to his initiative, and by his work there and at the London Hospital, Morell Mackenzie rapidly became recognized throughout Europe as a leading authority, and acquired an extensive practice. So great was his reputation that in May 1887, when the crown prince of Germany was attacked by the affection of the throat of which he ultimately died, Morell Mackenzie was specially summoned to attend him. The German physicians who had attended the prince since the beginning of March had diagnosed his ailment as cancer of the throat; but Morell Mackenzie insisted that the disease was not demonstrably cancerous, that an operation for the extirpation of the larynx was unjustifiable, and that the growth might well be a benign one and therefore curable by other treatment. Morell Mackenzie's opinion was followed; the crown prince went to England, under his treatment; Morell Mackenzie was knighted in September 1887 for his services, and decorated with the Grand Cross of the Hohenzollern Order. In November, however, the German doctors were again called, and it was admitted that the disease really was cancer. The crown prince became emperor, but died in June 1888. The German doctors published an account of the illness, to which Mackenzie replied by a work, The Fatal Illness of Frederick the Noble, causing him to be censured by the Royal College of Surgeons.
