Although this book was written over a hundred years ago by a "non-writer", it was a pleasant read. I liked that the diction was casual (for the 1800s) and clear. Each chapter was sort of like a short story... some were informative, others were heart breaking, and more than I expected were humorous. It was definitely more well-written than I anticipated. The photographs and illustrations were also a plus.

Honestly, I didn't love A.T. Still's autobiography as much as I love osteopathic medicine, but it did provide some interesting insight.

This audio biography was quite an intriguing read. It enables the reader to understand the perspective and context of how osteopathy was developed and created by Andrew Taylor Still. His audio biography was written by his own self and told through his own personal experiences. He lived through a great deal of historical happenings and was able to still create a functioning medical system and school. The writing is dated and from the 1800’s in a style of American old English. Highly recommend the read if you’re curious about the history of osteopathy from the founders excited perspective.
