Excerpt from Outlines of Midwifery: For the Use of Students The Sacrum, or Sacred Bone, is joined to the last joint Of the back in such a manner, that, in the erect posture, its upper part projects forwards, and the rest of it, together with the rump-bone, are inclined backwards. Its remarkable parts are the Base, which is its upper part; the Pro montory, which is the fore edge Of the base and the internal surface called Hollow. It is firmly wedged in between the nameless bones by an immovable articulation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
