The historical section of the Gordon Craig Library at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons contains a copy of Pott's major work, which includes most of his surgical papers. It also contains three volumes by Sir James Earle, which include most of Pott's papers, together with an account of the life of Pott. What follows is the basis of an illustrated lecture that sought to sample and review these books for those who do not have an opportunity to read them.
