2nd edition. Provenance: Birmingham Medical Institute (with accompanying bookplate and stamp). Very good copy in the original gilt-blocked cloth. Spine bands and panel edges somewhat rubbed and dust-toned as with age. Remains quite well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and strong. Notes; Decorated endpapers. Issued also in French under title: La dernière maladie de Frederic le Noble. Summary; Sir Morell Mackenzie was a British physician, one of the pioneers of laryngology in Britain. After undertaking the medical course at the London Hospital and becoming a member of the Royal College of Surgeons in 1858, he studied abroad in Paris, Vienna and Budapest where he learned the use of the newly-invented laryngoscope. Returning to London in 1862, he worked at the London Hospital and earned his degree in medicine. In 1863 he won the Jacksonian prize at the Royal College of Surgeons for an essay on the Pathology and Treatment of Diseases of the Larynx. In 1863 the Throat Hospital in King Street was founded, largely owing to his initiative, and by his work there and at the London Hospital, Morell Mackenzie rapidly became recognized throughout Europe as a leading authority, and acquired an extensive practice. So great was his reputation that in May 1887, when the crown prince of Germany was attacked by the affection of the throat of which he ultimately died, Morell Mackenzie was specially summoned to attend him. The German physicians who had attended the prince since the beginning of March had diagnosed his ailment as cancer of the throat; but Morell Mackenzie insisted that the disease was not demonstrably cancerous, that an operation for the extirpation of the larynx was unjustifiable, and that the growth might well be a benign one and therefore curable by other treatment. Morell Mackenzie's opinion was followed; the crown prince went to England, under his treatment; Morell Mackenzie was knighted in September 1887 for his services, and decorated with the Grand Cross of the Hohenzollern Order. In November, however, the German doctors were again called, and it was admitted that the disease really was cancer. The crown prince became emperor, but died in June 1888. The German doctors published an account of the illness, to which Mackenzie replied by a work, The Fatal Illness of Frederick the Noble, causing him to be censured by the Royal College of Surgeons.

Manuscrit / Papier ancien
See the Oxford DNB for both Mackenzie and Haweis, who in 1893 published 'Sir Morell Mackenzie, Physician and Operator: A Memoir compiled and edited from Private Papers and Personal Reminiscences'. The background to the letter is Mackenzie's controversial treatment of Kaiser Frederick III. The Oxford DNB describes how, following the Kaiser's death, Mackenzie 'had to bear constant criticism from his medical colleagues and the world press. Mackenzie received death threats, became involved in a public quarrel with members of the German medical profession, and instigated libel actions against two newspapers which had accused him of professional incompetence. Perhaps unwisely, he sought to protect himself by publishing an angry book, The Fatal Illness of Frederick the Noble (1888), which was received unfavourably, and led to censure of him by the Royal College of Surgeons and the British Medical Association, and his resignation from the Royal College of Physicians.' From the letter it would appear that Augustus Lowell (1830-1900), trustee of the Boston educational foundation the Lowell Institute, has withdrawn an invitation to Mackenzie to lecture there, as a result of the German controversy. 3pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to reverse of second leaf. Folded twice. The letter begins: 'My dear Haweis, | Mr Lowell simply says "I much regret that circumstances compel me to withdraw the invitation I sent you to lecture at the Lowell Institute". In response Mackenzie claims: 'I do not mind it at all. I had written a letter to Lowell, in which I said "I might be able to give one or two lectures", but I did not actually accept the invitation so that the slight to me is not so great as it might have been.' When Mackenzie sees Haweis he will tell him what he thinks 'are the circumstances which has [sic] led to the collapse'. He concludes in the hope that Haweis will 'look in' on the first day he is 'in the neighbourhood'. From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.
