Calomel in America: Mercurial Panacea, War, Song and Ghosts - Paperback
Details
by Richard M. Swiderski (Author)
Formed as a word and a chemical compound in an culturally diverse Europe, calomel came to America as a solution to epidemics also imported. It grew into a primary gesture, both medical and commercial, of the healing professions. Opposition to its use, founded on experience with the effects of consuming it, took the form of song and satire that echoed faintly after the drug was forgotten.
