Letter Signed
This pioneering New York physician joined Bellevue Hospital in 1847 and worked his way up to chief surgeon along the way helping to found Bellevue Medical College in 1861 and creating the first ambulance service and the first training school for nurses; he championed the "Dissecting Bill" a statute that helped provide cadavers for medical dissection and research for medical students thus eliminating the practice of body snatching and paving the way for instruction using actual bodies as well as textbooks. LS 1p lettersheet 5" X 8" New York NY 1862 April 20. Addressed to Thomas C. Acton 1823-98 New York City police commissioner politician reformer. Very good. Bit of sporadic age toning; original folds none weakened. Wood tells the new appointed 1860 police commissioner that "The bearer Thomas Flynn is anxious of procuring some employment -- I have known him along while and believe him to be an honest worthy and industrious young man -- If you can aid him in any way I shall feel much obliged." Boldly signed in thick brown ink. Wood's plea may just have worked for only a few years later one Thomas Flynn appears in reports issued by the city comptroller's office. An interesting and early piece from the year after the Medical College's founding. unknown

Woodes ROGERS
Voyage autour du Monde commencé en 1708 & fini en 1711 par le Capitaine Woodes Rogers A Cruising Voyage Round the World
à Amsterdam: Chez la Veuve de Paul Marret 1716. Fine. Chez la Veuve de Paul Marret à Amsterdam 1716 9.50 x 16.50 cm 2 volumes reliés First edition of the French translation. First published in English in 1712 under the title A cruising voyage round the world. Illustrated with 2 engraved titles 14 engraved plates and 7 maps including 2 large format Paraguay and Chile - mainland Peru and Brazil and the Land of the Amazons and a world map. Bound in full brown sprinkled calf spine elaborately gilt gilt roulettes on the edges all red speckled edges. Expertly restored corners upper and lower part of joints. Two small restored tears on the world map not affecting the image. Ex-libris in ink ""Sr Remy"" to the upper left margin of the title-page. A tear to the world map not affecting the engraving. The book that brought fame to Alexander Selkirk and inspired the character of Robinson Crusoe. English captain and privateer Woodes Rogers undertook his ""Voyage Around the World"" between 1708 and 1711 at the request of buccaneer William Dampier during the War of the Spanish Succession. This account written on his return narrates the many difficulties encountered by the fleet: desertions mutinies scurvy epidemic. Especially contains the rescue of Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk after being marooned on the island of Más a Tierra in the Juan Fernández archipelago more than six hundred kilometers from the Chilean coast. His ship stopped on this island to resupply with wood and water before returning to England after several failed attacks against Spanish fleet and cities in South America. Selkirk pointed out that the damaged ship needed to be refitted or it would likely sink. The captain refused and left the Scotsman on the deserted island. By the time Selkirk realized the absurdity and danger of his decision to stay there it was too late and the ship had already weighed anchor. Ironically the ship later sunk drowning half the crew. Four years and four months later on February 2 1709 Rogers and his crew landed on the island and met this ""a Man cloth'd in goat skins who look'd wilder than the first owners of them. An engraving in our copy illustrates this chance encounter: ""He had with him his clothes and bedding with a firelock some powder bullets and tobacco a hatchet a knife a kettle a bible some practical pieces and his mathematical instruments and books. He diverted and provided for himself as well as he could; but for the first eight months had much ado to bear up against Melancholy and the Terror of being left alone in such a desolate place. He built two hutts cover'd them with long grass and lin'd them with the skins of soats which he kill'd with his gun as he wanted so long as his powder lasted
At his first coming on board us he had so much forgot his language for want of use that we could scarce understand him for he seem'd to speak his words by halves. Captain William Dampier who was there during Selkirk's abandonment encouraged Rogers to hire him as foreman and the unfortunate Scot returned to England with them. Rogers' account was a great popular success mainly thanks to Selkirk's recue story. A close friend of Rogers author Daniel De Foe used this incredible story and extended Robinson's stay on a desert island to twenty-eight years. His novel published in 1719 was a huge bestseller and remains one of the greatest works of literature to this day. Chez la Veuve de Paul Marret hardcover

Woodward C. Van
The Strange Career of Jim Crow.
New York: Oxford University Press 1955. First edition of the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian's classic work. Octavo original cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Uncommon. Woodward's most widely read book is The Strange Career of Jim Crow in which he showed that the legal segregation of whites and blacks was not rooted in "time immemorial" as had been routinely claimed by Southerners but was actually a relatively recent phenomenon that had been erected in the South following the defeat of the Populist movement in the 1890s. The book helped provide a rationale for attempts at desegregation in the 1950s and '60s because it showed that whites had lived on basically equal terms with blacks for two decades even after the end of Reconstruction in 1876.
