Roosevelt in my capacity as White House physician. I saw him each morning and again in the evening, for the care of the President of the United States cannot be haphazard but necessitates constant watch. I went with him on his many journeys both at home and abroad, and the co-operation of a devoted secretariat kept me informed as to what went on when he was not under my eye. . . . Here, then, was no casual association, but one marked for more than twelve years by the intimacy so inseparable from the relationship between doctor and patient" [opening paragraph of Chapter 1].
