Title: Medicine in Maryland
First published: 1999
Description: "In this first comprehensive history of medicine in the state of Maryland, Sewell tells the story of the people and institutions who helped shape not only the nation's health professions but also the very quality of lives Americans led.

Among the topics covered are the development of the Medical Hall in late eighteenth-century Harford County, the evolution of the teaching hospital that became the University of Maryland, and the origins of the scientific tradition established at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Medical School, and School of Public Health.

Published during the bicentennial of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland, one of the most distinguished medical associations in the United States, Medicine in Maryland will be of interest to citizens of the state, physicians, and medical historians."--BOOK JACKET.
