‎Lustfeuerwerwerkkunst, oder leicht fassliche und bewährte Anleitung zur Verfertigung von Lustfeuerwerken. Für Alle, welche mit dieser Kunst in praktischer und theoretischer Beziehung sich beschäftigen, insbesondere für Dilettanten und Freunde der Lust...‎

‎Breslau, Ferdinand Hirt, 1858. Fine cont. haclf. Gilt back. Printed and xylographed title. (4),320 pp. Textillustrations. Fine and clean.‎

‎The work seems to be the first edition with this title, although it is an adaptation of the authors previously printed work under a slightly different title. Websky was without doubt the most influential and profilic German writer of the 19th century on the subject.(Chris Philip: W040.7)‎

Slight browning to htitle, a few minor brownspots. A good copy.‎

‎Scarce second edition. The publisher tells us in the postscript that the book, published 1657, was in much demand and that it was unobtainable, so he was requested by a gentleman (Einen vornehmen Herr) to republish it. This second edition came out without the authors name. It is divided in 2 parts. The first part mainly deals with all kinds of recreative fireworks but also with the making of rockets, fire-water-and storm balls, grenades, pitch, storm wheels and receipts for gunpowder. The second part deals with gunnery and artillery (Ander der Artollery). - Chris Philip S 310.2 - Not in Rumpf and Cockle.‎

Of the English edition of 1629, Cockle says ""This work, though in advance of anything so far written on the subject in English, does not attain to the standard of Thibourel and Appier. Yet it is with foreign treatises it must be weighed, for Malthus received his training in pyrotechnics abroad...It was Malthus who about the year 1634 introduced the mortar into the French service."" - Klaus Jordan: 2328 (ed. 1629) - Chris Philip: M 040.3 - Cockle Nos 118 a. 939.‎

He embodied his knowledge and experience in the treatise ""El arte de los metallos"", published in Madrid in 1640 in 4to, with illustrations.

‎First edition of Thomsens main contributions in thermochemistry, undoubtly the most importent contribution from a Dane in chemistry in the 19th century. - The construction of a complete and quantitative system of thermochemistry required an extensive and accurate collection of thermochemical data over and above the observations upon which the principle was based. The amount of data which he amassed was so great that it enabled him the calculation of heats of reaction for practically speaking every fairly common inorganic reaction. The results, which are based between three and four thousand measurements, were later collected in his famous work ""Thermochemische Untersuchungen"" (The Danish original oferred here).‎
