(Excerpt from Deformities After Fractures To this end, I ...)
Excerpt from Deformities After Fractures To this end, I shall draw from my hospital and private records such cases as have come under my immediate care, describing, as briefly as will be consistent with my purpose, all those circum stances connected with each fracture which might in any way modify the result, together with the plan of treatment, and finally, the precise amount and character of the imperfection, or maiming, if any, which remains. I shall not, however, confine myself to my own cases; but, so far as I am able, I shall record the cases which have been treated by other regularly qualified surgeons, and which have subsequently passed under my own observation. This is necessary not only as a vindication of my own practice and reputa tion, of which one must naturally feel jealous but more especially that my conclusions may have, what you have a right to demand for them, the weight of authority.

Frank Hamilton was born on September 10, 1813, in the now obliterated village of Wilmington, Vermont, United States, the son of Calvin Hamilton, a farmer and owner of a stage route, and his wife Lucinda.
Frank attended Union College, graduated in 1830, then registered as a pupil with Dr. John Morgan of Auburn. Later he took a course of lectures at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the Western District of New York at Fairfield, New York, and was licensed to practise in 1833. In 1835 he received the degree of M. D. from the University of Pennsylvania.
After graduation Frank Hamilton gave private instruction in anatomy and surgery at Auburn, but in 1839, at the age of twenty-six, he was made professor of surgery at the Fairfield school. The next year he took the same chair in the Geneva Medical School, where he remained until 1844. Having decided to settle in Buffalo he first spent two years in study abroad and then, with Austin Flint and others, founded the medical department of the University of Buffalo and became its first professor of surgery. After holding this chair for twelve years, he settled in Brooklyn as professor of surgery in the Long Island College Hospital.
In 1860 Hamilton published his Practical Treatise on Fractures and Dislocations, a work which went through eight editions and was translated into French and German, and in 1861 he was made professor of clinical and military surgery and fractures at the newly organized Bellevue Hospital Medical College.
Having volunteered his services at the outbreak of the Civil War Hamilton was placed in charge of the field hospital at the first battle of Bull Run and was promoted rapidly from brigade surgeon to medical inspector of the Federal army. He resigned, however, in September 1863, and settled in New York. He had already published the first edition of his Treatise on Military Surgery and Hygiene (1862). On the death of James R. Wood, Hamilton was made full professor of surgery and surgical pathology at Bellevue in 1868 and remained there until 1875. Meanwhile he edited the Surgical Memoirs of the War of the Rebellion (1870-1871) and published a treatise on The Principles and Practice of Surgery (1872).
He was consulting physician to President Garfield when the latter was assassinated and was in constant attendance until the end came. In the last few years of his life he was largely incapacitated by fibroid phthisis which led to his death in 1886.
