This work compiles records and other sources to chronicle the history of the Barber-Surgeons' Company in London, shedding light on their unique position as a professional guild that integrated both barbering and surgery. It aims to document the organization’s contributions to commerce, education, and the development of surgical practices in England. The opening of the volume provides a preface by the author, who reflects on the laborious process of compiling the annals. Young describes his eight-year journey in researching historical records and charters, all penned by his own hand, to present a systematic account. He acknowledges the challenges posed by archaic writing styles and the loss of certain historical documents but expresses a keen desire to preserve the interesting aspects of this guild’s history while excluding tedious legalities. The meticulous groundwork lays a foundation for understanding the pivotal role the Barber-Surgeons played in the medical and social landscape of London. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
