Take the tour of New Orleans

I have been asked by several people to organize a tour of New Orleans for sites from Dr. Mary’s Monkey. 

Here is self-guided tour which put the sites into groups with some logical progression of places.

If you take the tour, please let me know how it goes!  Click here to send email to Ed Haslam

 

Six remarkable women from Dr. Mary’s Monkey

This one page PDF focuses on six women from the pages of Dr. Mary’s Monkey who displayed remarkable courage.

They are: Bernice Eddy, Sarah Stewart, Mary Sherman, Judyth Vary Baker, Anna Lewis, and Adele Edisen.

It’s a good way to introduce this book to people interested in history, science, or women’s issues.

 

 

Enlarge the Endnotes!   And save your eyes! 

Did you have trouble reading the exquisitely small endnotes at the end of each chapter of Dr. Mary’s Monkey?  I did.

And did you get tired of flipping back and forth between the text and endnotes?  I did. 

Will there be “a test” ?  I mean, “Really”!    I just want to read!   What could I do ?    So I cheated, :  ).  

 

As the author, I had access to a PDF that I could enlarge to 200% and make those interesting, yet annoying, endnotes easily readable.  So I said, “Why can’t all the readers do the same thing?” 

Soon the answer became thunderingly obvious to me… Because the readers did not have a PDF of the endnotes.  

Guess what I did?  If you can’t figure it out yourself, click here.   Just kidding.  Please enjoy the easy-read endnotes.

 

 

The Gambit Affair

A weekly newspaper in New Orleans write a cover story about Dr. Mary’s Monkey.

Dr. Ochsner’s son complains bitterly.  Words fly.  Get the whole story right here.

 

 

The Family Jewels

CIA “Family Jewel” # 1 is still missing after 40 years.  What is the secret they continue to hide?

Does it involved a biological weapon? 

 

 

Mary Sherman’s Autopsy  <<< Content warning: this is a graphic description of a dead body. >>>

For the forensic scientists in the audience, here is the actual Autopsy Protocol from the Orleans Parish Coroner’s Office. 

Errata note: The reference to Labia Minora in the summary is inconsistent with the detail inside the document.

Therefore, it appears to be a transcription error and have been Majora.   Photos are not available.

 

 

The Early Anthrax Vaccines 

I have stated that my grandfather (Thomas P. Haslam, MD, DVD) was part of the team that helped develop one of the first anthrax vaccines.  Here is a historical document confirming that point which describes his role in that anthrax vaccine project.  But the vaccine was for cattle, not humans.  At the time (1916) he was a working at Kansas State Agricultural College as a veternarian doctor.  Anthrax, known in the cattle industry as Black Leg, was a significant problem for cattle ranchers.  Aware of the potential for misuse, my grandfather was adamant that medical knowledge should never be used as biological weapons, a perspective he passed on to my father.  He later became an M.D. and taught at SMU in Dallas.  He returned to Kansas where he lived out his life as a country doctor.
