Book Description
Excerpt from Memoir of the Late William Wright, M. D. With Extracts From His Correspondence, and a Selection of His Papers on Medical and Botanical Subjects The mind of the late Dr Wright was frequently occupied, particularly towards the close of his career, with the idea of collecting his scattered papers, on Medical and Botanical subjects, and giving them to the world in a connected form. The present publication had its origin in a desire to carry into effect the purpose which Dr Wright himself did not live to accomplish. It was afterwards thought desirable that the papers should be accompanied with some biographical account of the author; for which it appeared that his extensive correspondence would furnish the necessary materials. His earliest letters are chiefly addressed to his parents; and, from the ardent expressions of gratitude with which they are chiefly occupied, as well as from the struggles which they discover to share with them his earliest earnings, it may be inferred, that the rank to which he raised himself in society, in letters and in science, was entirely the result of his own genius and industry.
