Abstract/OtherAbstract:
1996 marked the centennial anniversary of the 1896 visit to California of William Macewen, MD, Regius Professor of Surgery of the University of Glasgow, Scotland, to give the first Lane Medical Lectures. I describe the origins of this historic lecture series and include photographic records. The progress and development of modern California medicine have been greatly influenced by the personalities who initiated and nurtured this lecture series.
