About the author

George R. Fuller Co. was a Rochester, New York, company rather than an individual author. It is credited with The Making of a Man: being a description of artificial limbs and how they may be adopted by those who have suffered loss of their natural limbs, a work first published in 1902.

The surviving catalog information suggests the book was written to explain prosthetic limbs in clear, accessible language for readers facing amputation and recovery. Because reliable biographical details about the company itself are limited in the sources I could confirm, little more can be said with confidence about its history or the people behind it.
