Description: "MASSAGE FOR NURSES" by Carrie Goldsmith. 1899; The Robert Clarke Company; Cincinnati. With six original illustrations. The contents are as follows: Rules to be Observed by the Masseuse; Motions of Massage and their Effects; Movements; General Massage (The Foot, Leg, Thigh, Fingers, Hand, Arm, Neck, Chest, Stomach, Abdomen, Back). From the author's Preface: "The writer's object in compiling this little book, is to give to nurses and others studying massage, a brief and comprehensive description of the different movements of massage, their effects and mode of application. It has grown out of a need deeply felt by the author in teaching this work. The many books already existing upon this subject, are too vague and too diffuse, containing much historical and biographical matter which is of no benefit whatever to the busy nurse beginning the study of this work. I have taken as my authorities the best known writers on massage, among whom are Graham, Murrell, Hunerfauth, Schrieber, Roth, Taylor, Riebmayer and others, and have endeavored to make this book convenient in size and simple in language."
