About This Item
American Medicine, 1901 27 pages. First separate printing. In printed blue wraps. Small chip to bottom right corner of cover and first page, tape repairs to reverse side of front cover, but altogether a very good copy of a rare item. SIGNED and inscribed on the front cover: "Compliments of / M. D. Mann." Matthew D. Mann (1844-1921) was one of the physicians who attended President William McKinley after he was shot by Leon Czolgosz at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, in 1901. There were five doctors available and Mann, a gynecologist, took the lead in bringing McKinley to his house and operating on him. Mann decided to leave the bullet in the body and also did not clean the wound. From that infection, McKinley died on September 13, 1901, a week after he was shot. Later, Mann was called on to give reports of McKinley's last words. The U.S. Congress authorized the payment of $10,000 to Doctor Mann in 1902 for his efforts to save the life of the President.. Signed by Author(s). 1st Edition. Soft cover. Very Good.
