Letters On The Cholera Asphyxia, As It Has Appeared In The City Of New York (1832) is a book written by Martyn Paine that describes the outbreak of cholera in New York City in 1832. The book is a collection of letters that Paine wrote to various medical professionals and government officials during the outbreak, in which he discusses the symptoms of the disease, its causes, and possible treatments. Paine also provides a detailed account of the measures taken by the city to contain the outbreak, including the establishment of quarantine stations and the distribution of medical supplies. The book is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the medical practices and public health policies of the early 19th century, as well as the social and economic impact of a major epidemic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
