The Man Who Chased Away Pain

By Michael Webster

On October 16, 1846, a young dentist named William T. G. Morton performed a public miracle: he used a strange vapor to render a patient unconscious for surgery, forever banishing the agony of the knife. He was hailed as a hero, but his triumph soon turned to tragedy.

The Man Who Chased Away Pain tells the gripping, untold story of Morton's life-a tale of genius, ambition, and betrayal. As he battled former partners and the medical establishment for credit and profit, he was thrust into a controversy that would consume his life, destroy his reputation, and leave him a broken man. This is the definitive account of the man who gave the world a new kind of mercy but found no peace for himself. Approx.160 pages, 32200 word count
