Overview

Dr. Thomas Lindsley Bradford [1847-1918] was a homeopathic physician and historian of homeopathy. He graduated from the Homeopathic Medical College of Pennsylvania (the forebearer to Hahnemann Medical College) in 1869 and studied under Dr. Adolphus Lippe. Dr. Bradford practiced homeopathic medicine for nearly 30 years but is best known for his work recording the history of homeopathy. His works include The Homeopathic Biography of the United States (1892), The Pioneers of Homeopathy (1898), and The Life and Letters of Samuel Hahnemann (1895). This scrapbook contains notices, reports, and clippings chiefly concerning the American Institute of Homeopathy. Includes a section on Lachesis, a homeopathic cure derived from the venom of the Bushmaster snake.
