Description
Excerpt from The Chamberlens and the Midwifery Forceps: Memorials of the Family and an Essay on the Invention of the Instrument
In the following memorials the reader will observe how largely they have been contributed by persons inimical to the projects of the Chamberlens, and whose Opposing zeal has led them to adopt language more bitter and vindictive than they might under other circumstances have used. It is necessary to remember this, and to make the requisite allowances.
As far as possible I have endeavoured, by arranging the memorials chronologically, to make them tell the whole story of the lives of the Chamberlens. Here and there a few necessary connecting links have been supplied, but, as a rule, facts alone have been given, and the reader has been left to draw his own conclusions, and make his own comments.
