  • CA MUA MG 4236

The Robert Fortuine fonds consists of Fortuine’s diaries for the period August 1956 to January 1962. The first eight volumes cover his four years spent in Medical School at McGill; the two additional volumes deal with a year of internship and a residency programme working for the United States Public Health Service on a First Nation Reservation in North Dakota. The final diary (Volume 10) ends after the first few months of his posting to North Dakota.

While the diaries offer a very detailed picture of medical studies at McGill, many of the entries deal with more philosophical matters.
