This popular and frequently used dispensatory was first printed in the United States in the last decade of the eighteenth century. Here it was edited by Jacob Dyckman (1788-1822), a New York physician, who enlarged and adapted it to the American materia medica. The five plates usually present are wanting in the University of Iowa Libraries' copy.
