In the summer of 1925, the John D. Archbold Memorial Hospital opened with 100 beds, an active medical staff of 15 physicians, and a staff of 11 registered nurses. At the time, it was the most modern and advanced medical facility of its size anywhere. Today, the 264-bed hospital is served by a medical staff of over 130 physicians and nearly 650 nurses and is the anchor of a healthcare system that serves fifteen counties in Southwest Georgia. A Century of Healing tells the story of an institution's journey from a small-town hospital to a regional hub. The growth of the John D. Archbold Memorial Hospital paralleled the development of Thomasville and Thomas County, Georgia, and the increasing sophistication of U.S. healthcare. Over a century, Archbold's directors and trustees ensured that the hospital remained at the forefront of American healthcare by overseeing brick-and-mortar additions, expansions of service lines, extensions of services beyond the local area, and the acquisition of cutting-edge technology. With A Century of Healing, Dr. Bragg achieves a balance between careful and accurate documentation of facts and readability to craft a historical account that covers facts but still holds the general reader's interest. His analysis is certainly more macroscopic than microscopic. Nevertheless, it comes with the realization that a centennial history or institutional memoir of a hospital is not just the story of a brick-and-mortar building. Instead, the brick-and-mortar building is the story's setting of a people-a small Southwest Georgia town's doctors, nurses, patients, technicians, families, citizens, politicians, businesspeople, and "winter visitors"-and their healthcare. To that end, he has not hesitated to detour his narrative down whatever interesting rabbit holes he encountered to tell the human side of the story of a big-city hospital located in a small Georgia town.
