[[Peter Charles Remondino]], M. D. was a San Diego, California physician, who was born in Turin (''Torino'') in 1846, but migrated with his family to the United States at the age of eight. There is some reason to believe that he was of Sephardic Jewish descent and had been circumcised while still in Turin, however this is uncertain.
Remondino is famous for his 346 page book, ''The History of Circumcision''.<ref name="remondino1891">{{REFbook |last=Remondino |first=Peter Charles |author-link=Peter Charles Remondino |year=1891 |title=History of Circumcision |url=https://www.gutenberg.org/files/23135/23135-h/23135-h.htm |pages= |location=Philadelphia |publisher=F.
