Book Description
Excerpt from Portraits and Biographical Sketches of Twenty American Authors His love of natural history, which showed itself in his childish sports and made him a miniature collector, deep ened as his mind matured, and gave him so strong a bent toward university life that he persuaded his parents to post pone their design to establish him in commercial pursuit until he should first spend two additional years at the College of Lausanne. His devotion there to anatomy and kindred studies gave the slight weight that was needed to turn the scale, and at the end of his course he went to the medical school of Zurich, and thence to Heidelberg.

Book Description
Excerpt from The American Portrait Gallery, Vol. 1: With Biographical Sketches It is, however, from the combination of portrait and biography that we reap the utmost degree of utility and pleasure which can be derived from them.'
