Wellcome. - Bigelow war Chirurg u. erhielt 1844 den Boylston Preis. - "Bigelow's speedy publication of Morton's discovery and his advocacy of ether assured its adoption throughout the civilized world. This work deals with the priority claims in general and with a defense of Morton's claim in particular " (GM 5730). "Ether and Chloroform" was initially published in the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal (April 19 and 26, 1848), while "Anaesthetic Agents" was initially published in Vol. I of the Transactions of the American Medical Association. In this joint publication, there is an added leaf after the title page, dated November 1848, in which Bigelow explains that over six months have elapsed since the publication of "Ether and Chloroform" in the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal. This joint publication has been deferred due to the delayed publication of his "Anaesthetic Agents" in the Transactions of the American Medical Association.
