Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Anniversary of the Woman's Hospital: Held at Clinton Hall, Astor Place, New York, February 9th, 1856 We have met to-day to celebrate the First Anniversary of the "Woman's Hospital Association;" to review what has been done during the past year to further the objects we had in view in its formation; and, with grateful hearts for the encouragement and support we have received and the sufferings we have been blessed in relieving, to start upon the duties of another year, refreshed and strengthened by this review. This day a year ago, a few ladies met together, to discuss the possibility of organizing an association for establishing a Hospital which should be devoted to the reception and cure of women who were suffering from any disease peculiar to their sex. They knew that such a Hospital was needed, for they knew that many women were passing weary days and nights of agony, debarred by poverty from seeking medical aid, and for whom no shelter was provided; for the crowded wards of our established Hospital, even if numerous enough to receive them, were no fit places for the class of cases they wished to succor. A physician was at hand whose life had been devoted to the study of such diseases, whose labors had been blessed by success, and whose inventions and discoveries had brought relief where cure had before been deemed hopeless. The efforts made to collect funds, by those who had associated themselves together for this purpose, were so far successful, that they felt authorized, by the middle of April, to rent a house and prepare and furnish it for the reception of patients who were daily imploring admittance to the blessings it promised. On the 4th of May the Hospital was opened, having Dr. J. Marion Sims as its Resident Surgeon, and four of the most distinguished medical names in our country associated with him as Consulting Physicians and Surgeons. Two Matrons, one to attend to the domestic concerns, the other to administer, under the Physician's orders, to the sick, and a good Nurse, completed the officers of the Hospital.

This book was released on 1968-10-15 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traces the development of the sanitary and health problems of New York City from earliest Dutch times to the culmination of a nineteenth-century reform movement that produced the Metropolitan Health Act of 1866, the forerunner of the present New York City Department of Health. Professor Duffy shows the city's transition from a clean and healthy colonial settlement to an epidemic-ridden community in the eighteenth century, as the city outgrew its health and sanitation facilities. He describes the slow growth of a demand for adequate health laws in the mid-nineteenth century, leading to the establishment of the first permanent health agency in 1866.

Download or read book Creating Central Park written by Morrison H. Heckscher and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2008 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2008 marks the 150th anniversary of the design of Central Park, the first and arguably the most famous of America’s urban landscape parks. In October 1857 the new park’s board of commissioners announced a public design competition, and the following April the imaginative yet practicable "Greensward” plan submitted by Calvert Vaux and Frederick Law Olmsted was selected. This book tells the fascinating story of how an extraordinary work of public art emerged from the crucible of New York City politics. From William Cullen Bryant’s 1844 editorial calling for "a pleasure ground of shade and recreation” to the completion of construction in 1870, the history of Central Park is an urban epic--a tale not only of animosity, political intrigue, and desire but also of idealism, sacrifice, and genius.
