\nHave you ever wondered what four years of medical school looks like? Or maybe even wondered about the courses, material, and techniques taught in medical schools in the 1930s?
\nWell, you’re in luck! I came across six volumes of notes taken by Edward Trowbridge Wolf during his studies at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia (1929-1933). They cover all four years of his medical school courses and subjects from Anatomy to Urology.

Not long after, he moved to Houston and established an Internal Medicine practice at 4411 Fannin that lasted 46 years. During World War II, Dr. Wolf was a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army Medical Corp, serving in Australia and New Guinea. Before and after the war, Dr. Wolf was an active member in the Houston medical community as well as the growing Texas Medical Center. He held a faculty position at Baylor College of Medicine from 1943 to 1975. He served on the publication committees for both Methodist Hospital and Harris County Medical Society.
