Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Bandaging
In order to make a suitable text book rather than to record any distinct advances, the tailed and handkerchief bandages were included. They are not nearly as well known as they deserve to be and it is hoped that a change for the better will soon be Observed in this respect.

Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Bandaging
The present volume is based on a previous one by the same author, issued in 1891. The illustrations, however, have all been redrawn and the manuscript rewritten, so that it is practically a new book. In describing the roller bandages an endeavor has been made to give their simplest and best mechanical construction. As a rule only the essential turns have been described and illustrated; to have done more would be simply to confuse the learner. Of recent years the prevalence of gauze bandages and their substitution for those of muslin have caused a great deterioration in their application. Many surgeons seem to wind them aimlessly around a part without the faintest idea of order or sequence.
It is hardly necessary to say that there is a right way and a wrong way to apply even a gauze bandage, and the right way is the best way. No attempt has been made to describe all peculiar bandages or turns. Every surgeon will modify the bandage according to the emergencies of the case, but the bandages and turns embodying principles have been both described and illustrated in detail. Simplicity is the main characteristic of the modern bandage. The old writers, particularly Galen, describe most intricate bandages winding in many unusual directions. Almost every newly invented turn can be found in the bandages of the ancients. Their bandages were too complex, while we on the other hand are apt to be ignorant of their proper construction and careless in their application.
Inasmuch as the book is intended for beginners and others not informed in medicine, the language used has been as simple and direct as possible, technical terms and expressions being avoided.
