(Harold Clarence), 1856-1922 Composite photographs Description An account of the resource As this letter attests, Holmes was less than enchanted with his composite photograph: “I thank you for them. They are curious, interesting—and fearfully truthful. I do not think much is gained in this instance by the multiple process. I like best the single photograph. That certainly looks like me, and is not to blame for not being more attractive…. but if [Henry Pickering] Bowditch has any curiosity for one of the compound ones, you can let him have it, and welcome.” Abstract A summary of the resource.

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Oliver Wendell Holmes to John Samuel Whiting Subject The topic of the resource Correspondence Holmes, Oliver Wendell, 1809-1894 (author) Whiting, John Samuel Description An account of the resource Holmes’ extensive medical library grew by not only his own purchases but also many gifts from friends, admirers, and colleagues. In this letter to physician John Samuel Whiting (1828-1896), Holmes expresses his thanks for the copy of an early anatomy text, James Keill’s The anatomy of the human body abridg’d. Holmes writes, “I have the ‘Manuall’ of Alexander Read, published in 1638—just one hundred years earlier than this, which I am much pleased to add to my collection. I have two anatomical works which go back more than another century—to 1520. It is very interesting to examine these books in series—to see what anatomy has come to in three centuries and a half…. I thank you very cordially for adding another stepping-stone to my path backward through the centuries.” Abstract A summary of the resource.
