The Toronto General Hospital 1819-1965: A Chronicle
1975373 pages. Signed by author upon half-title page beneath this inscription - With my very best wishes. Index. Black and white photographic plates. "Dr. Cosbie traces the history of the Hospital from its founding in York, through its humble facilities on King Street, to the ornate Victorian structure on Gerrard, and finally to the great institution which today dominates the corner of College Street and University Avenue. Its early service to the victims of the War of 1812 and of the cholera epidemics of the nineteenth century, the problems of financing, the challenges of two world wars, and its relationship with the University and its medical schools are just a few of the factors governing the direction taken by the institution. Throughout this chronicle, the achievements of a distinguished body of medical staff in the fields of medical practice, research, and teaching are described in a context of contribution to the University and the city of Toronto, as well as to the international medical scene." - from dust jacket.
