The Scale of Medicines is a book written by Thomas Spencer Wells in 1861. The book was written by command of the Privy Council for Trade and was intended to provide a comprehensive list of medicines that merchant vessels should be equipped with. The book outlines the various medicines that should be carried on board, including those for treating common illnesses and injuries such as fever, dysentery, and wounds. It also includes information on the proper storage and use of these medicines, as well as instructions on how to administer them. The Scale of Medicines was an important resource for merchant ships traveling long distances, as it ensured that they had the necessary medical supplies to treat their crew and passengers in case of illness or injury. The book is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the medical practices of the 19th century and the challenges faced by those who traveled by sea during this time.With Observations On The Means Of Preserving The Health Of Seamen; Directions For The Use Of The Medicines, And For The Treatment Of Various Accidents And Diseases.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
