The story of the innovative founding of the BOSTON EVENING CLINIC was penned by Morris in 1968... it is presented now by his son, with many family background notes, photographs, and updates.

The whole story is here: the mission, the penury, the sacrifices, the resistance from the community and the medical establishment; the sponsors, the supporters, and the final success.
