William Brodum
A Medical Essay on the Nature, Cause, and Cure of Coughs
(London : Printed for the Author and Published by Sherwood, Neely, and Jones, 1814)

William Brodum dedicated his treatise on coughs to the Prince Regent of England, and this is a presentation copy. The English Regency was declared in 1811 when the insanity of King George III progressed beyond the point of his ability to rule effectively. The Prince Regent was crowned King George IV after his father’s death in 1820.
