‎DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTINCT CONFLUENT AND INOCULATED SMALL POX VARILOID DISEASE COW POX AND CHICKEN POX‎

‎Boston: Wells and Lilly 1829. iv273pp. plus thirteen stipple engravings with additional hand-coloring. Large quarto. Original drab paper-covered boards rebacked in modern brown cloth new paper spine label new endpapers. Boards bumped scuffed and soiled edges and corners worn. Minor occasional foxing and thumb-soiling closed tear in gutter of one leaf. Overall very good. Untrimmed. A rare early American medical work by John Dix Fisher at the time a fairly recent graduate of the Harvard Medical School. Fisher had just returned from Paris where he had been studying infectious diseases with various French doctors and the materials used for the present work were collected by Fisher during his time overseas. It is a landmark work in American medicine for its confirmation that small pox and chicken pox are indeed separate diseases. <br> <br> The prominent feature of the work are the thirteen stipple-engraved plates featuring the "moderate severity" of the effects of the various diseases covered in the book. The plates show the effects of small pox on both inoculated and uninoculated patients. Fisher dedicated the work to Dr. James Jackson an early American advocate of vaccination. According to Fisher's note at the beginning of the text: <br> <br> "The work which I now have the honour to dedicate to you owes its origin to some observations which you had occasion to make during the course of lectures delivered at the Medical College of Harvard University in the winter of 1824-5. You there spoke particularly of the difficulties commonly experienced in distinguishing the variolous from other eruptive diseases and mentioned it as a matter of regret that the profession were not possessed of a series of coloured engravings illustrative of the progress of that disorder. With the hope of being able to contribute some assistance to the labours of my medical brethren I have undertaken to supply this deficiency. The paintings from which the plates in this volume are engraved.were made in the hospitals of Paris during the years 1825 and 1826 a period at which the variolous disease prevailed epidemically in that city. They were executed by a French artist under my own immediate direction and were all begun and finished at the bed-side of the patients from whom they were taken." <br> <br> The work is rather rare mainly due to a fire that broke out at the publisher's warehouse that consumed much of this first edition. OCLC indicates four physical copies over four records at the British Library the University of Toronto the State Library in Berlin and the Stanford Medical Library but more though an indeterminate amount of physical copies are catalogued in the digital book records. In any case the book is rare in the market and especially interesting for its large and detailed engravings. WELLCOME III p.29. WHITCOMB 3288. SHOEMAKER 38579.

Fisher was an Amishman who traveled to Europe in 1908 around the world in 1934 the subject of this book and on a cattle boat to Europe in 1952. Fisher kept detailed records journals wrote several travel books and had a collection of signatures from all over the world.

‎NP Paris: np Depot de la Marine; Petit Sculp. 1778. Map. Single sheet 23 x 16 5/8 in. trimmed to the neat line at right margin. Two closed tears extending into the top and bottom corners of the right side of the map slightly affecting a letter or two of the title; the whole archivally backed with Japanese paper. A nice clean example. "Rédigée d'après un plan anglois au Dépot général des cartes plans et journaux de la marine par ordre de M. de Sartine conseiller d'état ministre et secrétaire d'etat au Département de la Marine." The map also contains textual instructions for the navigation of the Delaware River and Bay a crucial waterway during the American Revolution. Fisher's chart was originally published in 1756 to aid in the navigation of a river known for its difficult shoals and included sounding and suggested routes. The map was initially suppressed by the Governor and Council of Pennsylvania for fear it gave away too much information to the opposition during the French and Indian Wars. Eventually published in ten editions between 1756 and 1800 in Philadelphia London and Paris this copy was done by order of M. de Sartine Secretary of the Navy under Louis XVI at the outset of French involvement in the American Revolution. It prints along the right side a French translation of Capt. Campbell's "Directions for Navigating up the Delaware Bay" published in London in 1776. The information it provided proved useful to all the major combatants during the Revolutionary War. see Lawrence C.
