This special edition "the first cases of Indian rhinoplasties in Europe" has been privately printed from an original edition of 1816 furnished to the Publisher courtesy of the Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine. The paper was especially made for this edition by the Curtis Paper Company. The volume has been bound in genuine top grain cowhide by the Tapley-Rutter-Company, Bookbinders. Edges are gilded, and covers are brass die stamped in 22-karat gold. Cover stampings and design of the edition by Daniel B. Bianchi and Selma Ordewer. "In October, 1814 and January, 1815, Joseph Constantine Carpue (4 May 1764 - 30 January 1846) had performed the first rhinoplastic operations in Europe in modern times, using the forehead flap of the Indian method. In his book describing these operations, Carpue gives careful and detailed consideration to the Italian or Tagliacotian procedure, as well as to the Indian method and the doctrine of adhesion and the physiological processes involved. The book represents a landmark in the development of medicine, both as a record of Carpue's surgical achievement and as a classic in the history of plastic surgery. Carpue's Account was immediately translated into German, and a French edition was said to be ready for publication in 1819, although no record exists of its ever having been published. Our edition of this celebrated medical classic is distinguished, we believe, in several ways. First, it is an exact facsimile-the first ever done-of the very rare and now very expensive first English edition of 1816, which is particularly enhanced by the color engravings of the famous English mezzotint portraitist, Charles Turner. Secondly, also included is the English translation of the foreword to the German edition of Carpue's book by his contemporary, Carl F. von Graefe. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, our edition includes a new biography and evaluation of Carpue especially prepared for this edition by the leading modern authority in the history of plastic surgery, Frank McDowell, who in addition to his many professional accomplishments is the Editor-in-Chief of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery."
