Biographical/Historical Note

American physician in China.

From the guide to the Robert Wilson letter extracts, 1937-1938, (Hoover Institution Archives)

Robert Wilson was a journalist and author.

The inscription on the flyleaf of the scrapbook reads, Robert Wilson, born 1842. Commenced writing 1859; enlisted in Navy 1852; in the army 1861. A book of my own making, written by sunlight, gas light, and oil light; printed by many papers, at many prices to the author; praised, condemned, and sneered at; the poetry selected with two exceptions, and the entirety to my own liking. Have worked on the following; Chicago Journal, Detroit Post, Grand Rapids Eagle, Grand Rapids Democrat, Omaha Herald.
