My reason for doing so is that I and the other British medical men now practising in/the Eternal City know only too well the erroneous opinions generally held in English-speaking countries, not only by the laity but also by the medical profession, that Rome is a very unhealthy city, and that malaria is very prevalent there during the whole year. Perhaps in this connection I may mention that during the Six years I have been practising as a physician in Rome I have never seen a case of malaria in an English — speaking person who contracted the disease in this city or even in the surrounding Campagna. The explanation of the absence of malaria in Rome proper is given by the author in this book.
