A Doctor at All Hours: the private journal of a small town doctor's varied life 1886 - 1909
by David S. Kellogg
hardcover in good used condition
"A Doctor at All Hours is a compelling memoir drawn from one physician’s long-running personal journal, capturing more than two decades of rural medical practice in Plattsburgh, New York. Dr. Kellogg—dedicated and reflective—offers candid observations on his everyday duties: delivering babies, treating injuries and disease, and responding to midnight calls (“night visit, extra $1.00”). Beyond his medical work, the journal portrays a man of varied interests—collecting Native American relics, attending symphonies, and philosophizing about life, work, and nature. His practice earned him modest income (about $2,584 a year), and his writings reveal a thoughtful country doctor, balanced between humor, empathy, and the realization that “the end of life is as marvelous as the beginning”.
