Summary: Essays on the lies of doctors such as John S. "Rip" Ford, George C. Cupples, Frank Paschal and Anson Jones, during the era when epidemic diseases such as yellow fever, malaria and typhoid ravaged the populations and when people sought far more from their doctors than mere formal training and medical degrees, provide a framework for a fascinating view of Texas history.
