King, Clarence
Clarence King Memoirs : The Helmet of Mambrino
New York & London:: G. P. Putnam's Sons 1904. A solid copy. Inner hinges are perfect. Bound in the original gray paper-covered boards with a vellum spine stamped in gold. Slight soil to vellum. Top edge gilt. NO owner's name or bookplate. Pages are clean crisp and unmarked. NO foxing. Illustrated with 9 portraits including a tissue-guarded frontispiece. Tribute to geologist and mining engineer Clarence King 1842-1901 published for the King Memorial Committee of the Century Association by G. P. Putnam's Sons. This volume contains the first appearance in book form of King's 38-page short story HELMET OF MAMBRINO. However the bulk of the volume consists of personal memoirs and biographical sketches of King -- with chapters contributed by James D. Hague John Hay William Dean Howells Henry Adams John LaFarge Edmund Clarence Stedman William Crary Brownell Edward Cary Samuel Franklin Emmons Daniel C. Gilman and Rossiter W. Raymond. Bibliography of King's publications. Synoptic Index. When Congress established the United States Geological Survey in 1878 it was King who was put in charge. King initiated the practice of using Hoffmann's contour lines to denote topography on maps and was among the first to make extensive use of the laboratory to solve geophysical problems. In addition to his many scientific contributions "from early youth King had shown literary qualities of a high order and it has always been a source of regret among his friends that he left so little evidence of it. A series of sketches appearing first in the ATLANTIC MONTHLY and afterward in book form under the caption of MOUNTAINEERING IN THE SIERRA NEVADA 1872 and his HELMET OF MAMBRINO in the form of a letter to his friend `Don Horacio' Horace F. Cutter in San Francisco published in the CENTURY MAGAZINE May 1886 serve but to show his latent capability." -- DAB p. 386. Cowan p. 328 A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA 1510-1930. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good condition. 8vo. vii 429pp. G. P. Putnam's Sons Hardcover

Brehm. Bertil Hanstrom. Hans Wallengren. Ingvald Lieberkind.
Djurens Värld : en populärvetenskaplig framställning av djurens liv på grundval av Brehm's Tierleben. 11 Daggdjur
Malmo Sweden: Forlagshuset Norden AB 1937 . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 453 pages half calf gilt spines <br/><br/>This is a volume from the acclaimed Swedish version of the famous Brehm's THIERLEBEN which in addition to abundant sketches and photogravures is enhanced by five remarkable watercolors by Swedish animal artist Tor Otto Fredlin. "What I like most about Fredlins paintings are his keen observations .always showing their natural behaviour movement and surroundings. The many different and often difficult perspectives I'm convinced can only be observed and sketched by a trained and very loving eye. . Fredlin also always staying faithful to his subjects never cheating bending or placing them into more easy drawing postures. His birds seem totally careless unaware absorbed busy and blended into natural surroundings. Behaving the way they normaly do making them so true and easily recognizable. The combination of his subjects and his very appealing fresh and original color pallet is turning each and every one of his paintings into a little gem. Fredlin could be described as a Scandinavian colorist and even after a century his bird paintings are quite irresistible comforting and a joy to study. - The Linosaurus."

<p>The volume of the Encyclopedia Metropolitana Botany by Professor Balfour had the embossed title on the cover: "Encyclopedia Metropolitana Second Division Applied Science 13". This is a relatively usable copy of one component of this Britannica competitor with this second edition's volumes eventually completing this ambitious project of Samuel Taylor Coleridge long passed by 1851. It is marked with the trappings of the old Wake Forest College Library many years gone. The card shoows the book last checked-out in 1926. Wonder what the fine would be by now.</p><p>Photos on request.Balfour John Hutton. 1851 Second Edition "Cabinet Edition."
