[Medicine]: [Quackery]:ABAA

A BRIEF HISTORICAL SKETCH OF THE LIFE AND SUFFERINGS OF LEONARD TRASK THE WONDERFUL INVALID.

1858réf. 69147Portland ME: David Tucker 1858. .a bed full of boiled potatoes jugs of hot water and bountiful potations of gin and lobelia A curious account of the life of Leonard Trask 1805–1861 who suffered serious spinal injury and subsequent deformity following a fall from a horse: "About the year 1833 while Mr. T. was riding on horseback through a neighboring town a 'luckless hog' in the highway hearing the approach of a horseman took fright and as is often the case with that perverse animal to flee from danger took the opposite direction from a place of safety and rushed directly under the horse's feet. The affrightened horse as a matter of course stumbled and plunged throwing his rider directly over his head. Mr. T. was thrown with great force upon the ground receiving the full force of the fall upon his neck and shoulders" pp.14-15. In the years that followed his neck and spine began to curve and he began to bow forward a condition now known as ankylosing spondylitis which was exacerbated by further accidents in 1840 and 1853. Trask's condition stymied doctors and the present pamphlet details an array of torturous treatments such as blistering cupping and bleeding. "Being tired of enduring the treatment of physicians of the 'regular practice' which was only adding pain and torture to the suffering he already endured.Mr. T. had recourse to Dr. J.W. Smith alias J.W. Kittridge of the Thompsonian mode of practice." This is almost certainly a reference to the Thomsonian movement an alternative practice founded by Samuel Thomson in Vermont in the early 19th century. Thomson and his followers spoke of the dangers of bloodletting advocating instead for botanical remedies that raised the temperature and induced perspiration. Trask's Thomsonian treatment included "a bed full of boiled potatoes jugs of hot water and bountiful potations of gin and lobelia" p.20. Trask published works such as this pamphlet in order to supplement his income and it is now considered the first published work on ankylosing spondylitis a rare form of arthritis that affects the spine. Scarce in commerce. We can trace just four copies in the auction record since 1946. Original yellow wrappers featuring a wood-engraving of Leonard Trask within a decorative border. Wrappers lightly soiled chipping to extremities corners bumped old folds. Occasional spotting to contents. Overall very good. Not in SABIN. unknown books
