This article discusses the book "Humphry Sandwith: A Memoir," compiled by Thomas Humphry. Memories of Humphry Sandwith go back to two periods, either to his aid in the defense of Kars during the Crimean war or to his long-continued efforts for the oppressed nationalities of what was then European Turkey. When war began, Sandwith offered his services for the army, and was sent first to Varna and Silistria, and subsequently to Kars. Here he organized a hospital, though greatly distressed by the class of physicians, surgeons, and apothecaries who were under his orders, and by the stores, which had been supplied.
