Alken, Henry.
Qualified Horses and Unqualified Riders, or the reverse of Sporting Phrases taken from the work entitled Indispensable Accomplishments. London, S. & J. Fuller, 1815[-1819].
Landscape folio (25 x 34.4 cm). Engr. title page, 7 hand-coloured engraved plates by Alken, plate 5 with J. Whatman 1819 mark. Later red hard-grained half morocco, spine and upper cover lettered in gilt, rebacked preserving spine. First edition, early issue. The first of Alken's works to have a title page, "lacking from a great many copies" (Dixon). Signed Ben Tally Ho, the title good-humouredly explains that the plates are a reply to Robert Frankland's "Indispensable Accomplishments", a set of six Leicestershire hunting prints published in June 1811. Where Frankland blames the horse for any failures, Alken aims to show how a perfectly good horse can be handicapped by an "unqualified" or untrained rider. - Light browning to sky areas and plate margins. Provenance: Alfred N. Beadleston (bookplate). Dixon 4 (two plates watermarked 1819). Mellon/Snelgrove 3. Schwerdt I, 20 (1813 watermark). Siltzer 69 & 74. Tooley, Coloured Plates 44.

Allawerdi, Michael (Allah Wirdi, Miha'il Halil).
Falsafat al-musiqa al-Sharqiyah. The Philosophy of Oriental Music. Damascus, Ibn Zeydoun, [1949].
4to. (60), 608, (2), 40, (4) pp. With portrait frontispiece after preliminaries. Contemporary green cloth. - Includes: The same. Arabism and Peace. 8, (4), 8 pp. Ibid., 1951. Printed wrappers. - And: The same. Typescript "Unification of the Language of Music and its Relation to World Peace". 4to. 5 ff. with occasional handwritten corrections. - And: collection of publisher's promotional leaflets on "The Philosophy of Oriental Music" in French and English. First edition in Arabic, inscribed by the author to an unidentified member of the Swedish Nobel family: "Présenté par l'auteur à Mr. le Maître Gunar Nobel avec les meilleurs salutations [...] Damas 10.5.1952". The Syrian musicologist Allawerdi held that there were two basic forms of music: the oriental, natural one, based on the harmonic series, and the western, mechanical one, based on the tempered scale of 18th century instruments. While he associated the former with serenity and peace, he viewed the latter as artificial and complex, ultimately leading to restlessness, chaos, and war. Allawerdi strove to unify the "language of music" as a first step towards achieving world peace. He was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1951. - A good copy, including several of the author's further writings on the subject, one as an original authorial typescript.

Allen Richard
Lo spirito del golf. 56 storie di vita e di sport dai campi del mondo
br. Il campo da golf è senz'altro uno specchio della vita. Sul tee, sul fairway o sul green, sono tanti e tali gli episodi epici che si sono succeduti che non c'è da meravigliarsi se ogni golfista che si rispetti ama la storia del gioco. In questo libro agile, divertente e a suo modo istruttivo, Richard Allen ci racconta 56 straordinarie storie di golf - ora di grandi campioni ora di illustri sconosciuti. Storie che sottolineano il parallelismo tra il golf e la vita, in cui siamo chiamati di continuo a valutare rischi e opportunità e, soprattutto, a prendere decisioni difficili che portano a trionfi gloriosi o a sconfitte disastrose. Il golf è dunque una palestra di vita, in cui coraggio e paura accomunano campioni e dilettanti. Forse nessuno ha colto questa verità meglio del grande Tom Watson: «Mai arrenderti. Se ti arrendi in questo gioco, ti arrenderai nella vita. E se ti arrendi la prima volta, sarà più facile arrenderti la seconda, la terza e la quarta volta.»

Alpini, Prosper & Bontius, Jacob.
De medicina Aegyptiorum, libri quatuor. Et Iacobi Bontii In Indiis archiatri, De medicina Indorum. Editio ultima. Paris, Nicolaus Redelichuysen, 1645.
Small 4to (225 x 175 mm). 2 parts in one vol. (11), 150, (25) ff. 39, (1) ff. Title-page printed in red and black; woodcut chapter initial and head-tail pieces, 2 text illustrations and 3 full-page woodcuts. Full vellum, title gilt on spine red label. Somewhat later edition of the first important work on the history of Egyptian medicine. Alpini (1553-1617) was an Italian physician and botanist who spent three years in Egypt studying botany and hygiene as a companion to the Venetian Consul Giorgio Emo. This work is considered "one of the earliest European studies of non-western medicine. Alpini’s work dealt primarily with contemporary (i.e. Arabic) practices observed during his sojourn in Egypt. These included moxibustion - the production of counter-irritation by placing burning or heated material on the skin - which Alpini introduced into European medicine [...] Alpini also mentioned coffee for the first time in this work" (Norman). Jacobus Bontius (Jacques de Bondt, 1592-1631), whose work on Indian medicine is included, was a Dutch physician and botanist. He travelled to Persia and Indonesia to study the botany of the area. He was the first to study cholera on the island of Batavia in 1689, before it was known in Europe, and died on Java. His botanic and medical works were published after his death by Pisonius. He "was probably the first to regard tropical medicine as an independent branch of medical science. He spent the last four years of his life in the Dutch East Indies, and his book incorporates the experience he gained there. It is the first Dutch work on tropical medicine and includes the first modern descriptions of beri-beri and cholera" (Garrison/M. 2263, citing the 1642 first edition). - Binding slightly brownstained in places.

Alpini, Prosper.
De plantis Aegypti liber. [...] Accessit etiam liber de Balsamo alias editus. Venice, Francesco de Franceschi, 1592.
4to. 2 consecutively paginated parts. (4), 80 (but: 84), (8) ff. (Pt. 2 has separate title page). With woodcut printer's device to title-page and 50 large woodcut plant illustrations (many page-sized). 18th century marbled wooden boards. All edges sprinkled in red. First edition of the earliest treatise on the native Egyptian flora, the author's most important scientific work. The Italian physician and botanist Alpini (1553-1617) spent three years in Egypt studying botany and hygiene as a companion to the Venetian Consul Giorgio Emi. He was "among the first of the Italian physician-botanists of the 16th century to examine plants outside the context of their therapeutic uses. Today this work is best known for containing the first European illustration of the coffee plant" (Hünersdorff). Alpini writes: "I saw in the garden of Halybey the Turk a tree [...] which is the source of those seeds, very common there, which are called Ban or Bon; from them everyone, Egyptians and Arabs alike, prepare a decoction which they drink instead of wine and which is sold in public bars just as is wine here and they call it 'Caova'. These seeds are imported from the Arabian peninsula [...]" (f. 26r, transl.). The coffee plant is pictured on f. 26v, captioned "Bon". - Binding rather rubbed and bumped (especially the spine); trimmed somewhat closely at upper edge; occasional brownstaining throughout with the odd waterstain; slight defect to title page repaired by a former owner. A good copy from the library of Karl Martin and Siri Hilda Karolina Norrman (1900-95) with their joint bookplate on front pastedown. Edit 16, CNCE 1244. BM-STC Italian 20. Adams A 803. IA 103.853.

Alpini, Prosper.
De plantis exoticis libri duo. Venice, Giovanni Guerilio, 1656.
4to. (16), 344 pp. Engraved architectural title with portraits of Theophrastus and Dioscorides, 145 finely etched and engraved botanical plates in the text, ornamental initials. Contemporary blind-tooled calf with gilt spine. Edges sprinkled red. Third edition (in fact, a re-issue with changed title page date only) of Alpini's further observations on exotic plants. The specimens here presented were collected primarily in Crete and the Eastern Mediterranean, including many xerophilous plants from Egypt and scores of plants not mentioned in earlier works. The first edition was published posthumously in 1627 and was edited by the author's son, Alpini Alpini. The work (in all its editions) is much rarer than the author's better-known "De plantis Aegyptii". "Date altered by hand [from 1629] to MDCLVI" (Krivatsy). - Prospero Alpini (1553-1617), an Italian physician and botanist, travelled through Greece, Crete, and Egypt from 1580 to 1583 with the Venetian Consul Giorgio Eno. He worked as a medical advisor and took the opportunity to carry out botanical investigations. His work includes the first European recognition of the medicinal value of coffee and introduced banana and baobab. "Alpini became professor of botany at Padua after having spent three years in Egypt" (Garrison/M., p. 992). - Binding rebacked, showing some light wear to extremeties, but a good, clean copy. Provenance: removed from the Large Library at Goodwood House (Chichester, West Sussex) with bookplate on front pastedown; latterly in the collection of Cornelius J. Hauck (his tree bookplate dated 15 March 1944). Nissen BBI 21. Krivatsy 241 (copy 2). Cf. Pritzel 112. Not in Wellcome, Waller, or Osler.

Alvarez de Toledo, Pedro and Maria Osorio y Pimentel.
Three letters to Ferrante Gonzaga, Viceroy of Sicily, two from Pedro Alvarez de Toledo and one from his wife Maria Osorio y Pimentel. Andria (in the Kingdom of Naples), 13 August to 10 September 1539.
Folio (215 x 300 mm). (4); (4); (2) pp. including blanks. (1) Letter in Italian, signed, from Pedro Alvarez de Toledo in Andria to Ferrante Gonzaga, 13 August 1539, with a 23 mm seal bearing Alvarez de Toledo's coat of arms (with a chain of flags) stamped on a slip of paper attached with red wax. (2) Letter in Spanish, signed, from Pedro Alvarez de Toledo in Andria to Ferrante Gonzaga, 3 September 1539, with the 45 mm imperial armorial seal stamped on a slip of paper attached with red wax. (3) Letter in Italian, signed, from Maria Osorio y Pimentel [in Andria] to Ferrante Gonzaga, 10 September 1539, with the remains of what appears to be her husband's 23 mm red wax seal. - Each letter, in brown ink, occupies one page, with the last page containing the address and the sender's seal. The two inside pages of the second and third letter are blank. Each formerly folded for posting, so that the address would have appeared on one side and the seal on the other. Three letters from Pedro Alvarez de Toledo (1484-1553), Duke of Alba and councillor to the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, and his wife Maria Osorio y Pimentel (1498-1539) to Ferrante Gonzaga (1507-57), Viceroy of Sicily, who commanded the Imperial cavalry fighting the Ottomans in North Africa. They concern the Ottoman fleet marauding in the Mediterranean in 1539, thirteen years after the Ottoman victory at the Battle of Mohács gave them control of much of Hungary and roused Christian fears of their strong presence in Europe, and ten years after Barbarossa established his base in Algiers. The first letter, signed by Alvarez de Toledo, advises Gonzaga that, due to the recent loss of Castelnuovo to the Turks, he has given orders for vigilance and defensive preparations on the island of Lipari. He asks Gonzaga to supply any assistance the islanders require. The second letter, also from Alvarez de Toledo, advises Gonzaga that he has received a letter dated 30 August 1539 from Andrea Doria (1466-1560) in Brindisi, then Imperial admiral of the Holy League, urging a campaign against Barbary to be carried out forthwith, in order to avoid further damage from the Turks. This followed the defeat of Doria's fleet at the battle of Preveza in September 1538 by the fleet commanded by the Ottoman admiral Hayreddin Barbarossa (ca. 1478-1546), long feared in Europe as the infamous privateer Redbeard. The third letter is addressed to Gonzaga by Osorio y Pimentel, informing him that her husband has sent news that the Turkish fleet has been sighted off the Capo d'Otranto, some 150 sails having been observed. She also notes that she has informed Francisco de Tovar, governor of the port La Goleta at Tunis. Given that Barbarossa may direct his attention there, she requests that Gonzaga send a frigate to Tunis to warn de Tovar to remain vigilant. - The seal on Osorio y Pimentel's letter is damaged and can no longer be made out, but the faint visible traces appear to match the arms and flags of her husband's seal, and a small part of the imperial seal on his second letter is damaged, but all three letters are still in very good condition. Three letters of 1539 all important primary sources for hostilities between the Ottoman Empire and Christian Europe.

Alvarez, Francisco.
General Chronica, das ist: Warhaffte und kurtze Beschreibung vieler namhaffter und zum theil bis daher unbekannter Landtschafften. Frankfurt, Joh. Schmidt, Sigmund Feyerabend, 1581.
Folio. 3 parts in one volume. (4), 144 (last blank) ff. with 32 woodcut illustrations; 94, (2), 45 (3) (last blank) ff. First title-page printed in red and black; 3 (repeated) printer's devices. Contemporary blindstamped leather over wooden boards with one metal clasp (out of 2). A collection of three works published by Feyerabend, issued jointly with separate title-pages each. The first work contains a translation of the famous travel account of Francisco Alvarez (ca. 1470-1540), who accompanied as a chaplain the 1520-26 Portuguese expedition to Ethiopia under Rodrigo de Lima. The embassy was occasioned by a letter by Helen, Empress of Ethiopia, the grandmother of Lebna Dengel (David II). The journey began in Massaua in 1520, leading the party to Shewa and Dabra Libanos before they reached Lebna Dengel's camp near Taguelat. Alvarez made at least four journeys to Shewa before leaving Ethiopia in 1526, bound for India. According to Ramusio, this was the earliest account of Etiopia, and for at least a century it would remain the principal published source on the country. The first edition appeared in Portuguese in 1540, comprising merely a part of Alvarez's lost five books. Alvarez describes the country's churches, including the rock-hewn churches, and also the towns and the agriculture. Historical geography owes to him the story of the invasion of the Somal and Galla. Alvarez also gives accounts of the countries surrounding the rule of Prester John, such as Danakil and Godjam. It is unfortunate that Alvarez was unable to perform cartographical and topographical localisations, and yet his influence on cartography remained evident until the days of d'Anville and J. Bruce (cf. Henze I, 62ff.). The account is prefixed by two letters by Andrea Corsal, previously published in 1516. The Florentine traveller Corsal describes, on 24 ff., mainly the area of the Red Sea, Southern Arabia (with descriptions of Aden, Hormuz, Bahrein, Socotra, Muscat, and Oman), India, Ethiopia, Persia (the city of Balsera and King Sophi), as well as Malacca. - Binding somewhat rubbed; wants one clasp. Title-page clipped and remargined; old ownerships to title and flyleaf; a small worm-hole to 35 ff. (touching a single line); evenly browned throughout. A very good copy. Kainbacher 15f; Lockot 711, 732; Gay 186; Sabin 974. Cox I, 3 & 22. Gay 3321 (French ed.). The second work is a translation of Orosius's world history; the third work is a translation of the text from Ortelius's 1580 world atlas. - Schweiger 622 (Orosius). Not in Adams.

Amaral, José Rodrigues Coelho do, Portuguese Naval Minister (1808-1873).
Document signed. Lisbon, 7. III. 1868.
Folio (ca 350 x 225 mm). Portuguese manuscript on paper. 1 p. Very rare document of colonial history and the history of Portuguese and British abolitionism: a certificate of appointment of Carlos Eugenio Correa da Silva as Commissioner for the Prevention of the Slave Trade on the African West Coast. - In accordance with the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty on the Abolition of Slave Trade of 3 March 1842, Correa da Silva, commander of the brig "Pedro Nunes", was appointed by order of the Portuguese King as commissioner for the suppression of the slave trade on the African west coast ("encarregado de evitar o tráfico da escravatura na costa occidental de África") and was authorized to stop and search suspicious Portuguese and English ships ("para visitar e dar busca às embarcações mercantes portuguezas e inglezas que sejam suspeitas com fundamentos razoaveis de se empregarem em transportar negros para o fim de os reduzir a escravidão, ou de terem sido equipadas com esse intento, ou de terem assim sido empregadas durante a viagem [...] tudo na conformidade do tratado de 3 de Julho de 1842 concluido entre as coroas de Portugal e da Grã Bretanha, para a kompleta abolição do tráfico da escravatura, o qual tratado o mesmo Primeiro Tenente, Commandante do dito Brigue, deverá exactamente observar [...]"). - Includes: Instructions of the Naval Headquarters (ca. 385 x 240 mm, 3 pp.; spotty, small holes in margins) for Correa da Silva, issued by the General Commander of the Portuguese Navy, Francisco Visconde Soares Franco (1810-85), with instructions for the passage to Luanda, where Correa da Silva had to take over the "Estação Naval d'Angola" from the former Commander Caetano Alexandre de Almeida e Albuquerque (1824-1916, Governor of Cape Verde, Governor General of Angola and Portuguese India) in accordance with the guidelines for the prevention of the slave trade ("instruções ... relativos à supressão do tráfico da escravatura"). - Carlos Eugénio Correia da Silva, Count of Paço d'Arcos (1834-1905), a friend of King Luis I of Portugal, whom he succeeded as commander of the brig "Pedro Nunes", later became commander of the Portuguese Navy, governor general of Portuguese India, Macao and Mozambique, as well as civil governor of Lisbon and was the first Portuguese ambassador to Brazil. He had already recommended himself for this position in 1864 by the capture of the Spanish slave trader "Virgen del Refugio". The Anglo-Portuguese treaty to abolish the slave trade was signed on 3 July 1842 by the Portuguese foreign minister, the Duke of Palmela, and the British ambassador Baron Howard de Walden, and Portugal subsequently made great efforts to implement this treaty.

Amira, Georgius Michaelis.
[Grammatiqi suraya aw kaldayata (...)]. Grammatica Syriaca, sive Chaldaica. Rome, Giacomo Luna, Tipografia Medicea Orientale (in Typographia Linguarum externarum), 1596.
4to. (44), 480 pp. Contemporary limp vellum with ms. spine title. First - and likely only - edition. The first large-scale Syriac grammar, the third ever written (following those of Caninius, 1554, and Widmanstetter, 1555). Composed by the Maronite priest Jiris Ibn Mikha'il ibn 'Amira, it was printed by the Maronite scholar Ya'qub ibn Hilal (Giacomo Luna), who worked at the Medicean Press under Raimondi and was responsible for the Arabic and Syriac publications issued between 1590 and 1594. In 1595 he started printing on his own, and possibly took over some of the types of the Vatican Press. The work is listed as a Propaganda Press imprint ("olim typis nostris impressi") in Amadatius's 1773 "Catalogus", which shows the continuity that was felt to exist between the Medicean Press, the intermediate stage of Luna and Stephanus Paulinus, and the Propaganda Press. In the preface Raimondi is mentioned as the instigator of the work. - The 24 pt Syriac "serto" types were cut in 1590 by Jean Cavaillon for the Medicean Press. In the beginning a Syriac alphabet is presented, in three different scripts: "estrangelo" (this word possibly here used for the first time), "serto", and a Nestorian script possibly in type. This Nestorian script, a cursive form of estrangelo, is introduced here for the first time. In 1633 a slightly different type-face was used for Bellarmino's Catechism. - Some browning and brownstaining throughout, as common; the first few quires loosened. 18th century library stamps to title page; bookplate of Flavio Camillo Borghese, Prince of Sulmona (1902-80), on pastedown. Quite rare; a second edition, supposedly produced in 1645 (cf. Nasrallah, p. 10), is not attested in libraries. Edit 16, CNCE 1541. Adams A 965. BM-STC Italian 356 (s. v. "Jiris"). Brunet I, 231. Zenker, p. 132, no. 1534. Smitskamp, PO 184. Vater/Jülg 388. Nestle 13. Duverdier, Impressions, 198. OCLC 7238840.

Angèlio da Barga (Bargaeus), Pietro.
[Syrias.] Hierosolyma hoc est expeditio illa celeberrima Christianorum principum, qua Goffredo Bulione duce à Turcarum tyrannide Hierusalem liberatur. Florence, Giovanni Donato, Bernardino Giunta, & Soc., 1616.
4to. (26), 496, (2) pp. With woodcut printer's device to t. p. and several historiated initials. Contemporary limp vellum with ms. spine title "Carmina Barge". Epic poem on the events of the first crusade (1486-99), led by Godfrey of Bouillon. The work was written at almost the same time as Tasso's like-themed "Gerusalemme Liberata": while this is the first edition under the title "Hierosolyma", it was actually already published in Paris in 1582 (bks. 1-2) and 1584 (bks. 3-4), then in Rome in 1585 (bks. 1-6), and finally, in all 12 books, separately in 1591 under the title "Syrias" (cf. Brunet I, 288). Petrus Angelus Bargaeus (1517-92) was a scholar and professor at the universities of Pisa and Rome. - Rather strong brownstaining, occasional waterstaining. Some contemporary underlining and ms. line-numbers supplied throughout. OCLC locates single copy in America (Houghton Library, Harvard). BMC 5:448. NUC 16.619. Bruni/Evans 232. OCLC 82107113. Cf. Brunet I, 288.
