Edward Burcham Lent

""Being Done Good"" is a humorous and insightful memoir written by Edward Burcham Lent, a man suffering from rheumatism in the early 1900s. The book chronicles Lent's experiences with various doctors and specialists who promised to cure him of his ailment. The author describes his encounters with these medical professionals in a lighthearted and often satirical manner, poking fun at their methods and the absurdity of some of their treatments. Along the way, Lent also shares personal anecdotes and observations about his life and the world around him. Despite the book's comedic tone, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the state of medical practice in the early 20th century, and the challenges faced by those seeking relief from chronic illnesses. Overall, ""Being Done Good"" is a charming and entertaining read that will appeal to anyone interested in medical history or the human experience of illness and healing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
