This is the 25th printing of the 1929 book by Blue Ribbon Books, Inc. This book details the history of healthcare - from childbirth to surgery; from anesthesia to plagues. It’s a very fascinating history. The book doesn’t have a dust jacket. But it’s in pretty good shape with minimal shelf wear. Some fading from the golden lettering on the spine. Binding is in good condition. Slightly browning pages. A signature is present on the front page from a previous owner. No other annotations in the book
