Talked to people at Fort Phoenix, #Fairhaven #Massachusetts today about variolation or inoculation to combat The Pox that was running rampant in Boston in 1775. My program, called "Dreadful Medicine" will be held every Thursday afternoon this summer. It covers tooth pulling, blood letting, amputation, and other cures performed by the village barber/dentist during the war. A midwife (Mrs. Fairhaven Person) is also on hand to talk about herbal remedies and assisting with births.

So the day job in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts can be fun. This summer on Thursday afternoons I'll be a barber/dentist/surgeon demonstrating "Dreadful Medicine" at Fort Phoenix.

We ended up rolling up careers for our upcoming Warhammer FRP campaign. It looks like I’m going to be a human barber-surgeon. Depending on how things go I can either make my way to spy and assassin, or over to Wizard’s apprentice.
I really do love the career progression in #WFRP .

I'm preparing a new historical program called Dreadful Medicine to be presented weekly at Fort Phoenix in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts during the summer. It will include discussion and demonstrations of medical practices by a barber surgeon around the time of the American Revolution. #history #reenacting #18thcentury #southcoastma #fairhavenma #fortphoenix #barbersurgeon #dentistry
