1896réf. 62320Toronto: William Briggs Wesley Buildings 1896. 8vo. 160 pp. Photo frontisp. preserving original tissue guard numerous woodcut-engraved plates text illustrations photo plates. Cobalt-blue publisher’s cloth over beveled boards gilt lettering & lozenge illust. of swimmer and life preserver front cover a.e.g. minor darkening to fore-edges minor bumping to corners slight uniform interior toning still VG copy. Second edition substantially expanded & revised of this important Progressive Era handbook feeding the growing enthusiasm in Victorian Canada and the U.S. for embracing recreational and sport swimming water sports life saving activities and the vital importance of everyone being instructed on how to swim. Andrews was a swimming instructor at the Wiman Bath Trust and formed the Toronto Harbour Life Saving Service in 1883 with Constable Ward and encouraged in their recruits physical training development importance of lighthouses. Of particular importance are his emphasis on encouraging women to learn how to swim locating suitable swimming places as well as swimwear. In addition he also addresses how no physical disability should interfere with a person’s buoyancy or swimming ability. The 19th-Century Canadian version of water polo featuring players riding wooden barrel “horses” with paddles pushing a large floating rubber ball apparently proved to be short-lived.

1696réf. ST19191Paris: Chez La Veuve Piget s.d. but T. Moette 1696. FIRST EDITION later title page. 150 x 82 mm. 5 7/8 x 3 1/4". 6 p.l. xii 47 pp. Early 19th century marbled sheep covers with cresting gilt roll border smooth spine divided into compartments by thick and thin gilt rules these either filled with a lattice of interlocking gilt circles or with gilt flower at center red roan label marbled endpapers. With 35 engravings by Charles Moette showing proper swimming technique. ◆Lower covers with minor loss of patina due to insect activity extremities just a trifle rubbed mild marginal foxing to first and last few text leaves but AN EXTREMELY FINE COPY QUITE CLEAN FRESH AND BRIGHT internally in a well-preserved binding. This is as fine a copy as one could hope to find of the charmingly illustrated first edition of the first French work on swimming. In the history of swimming publications it was preceded only by the 1538 "Colymbetes" by the German professor of languages Nicolaus Winmann the 1587 "De Arte Natandi" by the Englishman Everard Digby and the 1595 English translation and adaptation of that work by Christopher Middleton. Thévenot mainly copied Digby's work and for good reason. Whereas Digby was reputed to be a master swimmer Thévenot was said to be entirely unable to swim. At the time that put him in good company as an ability to swim was not common among his contemporaries and swimming was generally viewed as a skill cultivated only by working-class sailors. Thévenot pointed out its usefulness to trade and to the military at a time when ships were essential in both of those spheres. He also observes that everyone--whether a world traveller or a cautious soul who never leaves his hometown--runs the risk of falling into a river or pond in which case a knowledge of swimming could mean the difference between life and death. There are 39 chapters each devoted to a different stroke or technique and 35 plates in which the move illustrated is discussed. Almost all of the swimmers depicted are male but a couple of plates show women and one a cherubic child. According to Scott Cleary's article "The Ethos Aquatic: Benjamin Franklin and the Art of Swimming" in "Early American Literature" Vol. 46 No. 1 2011 the teenaged Franklin used this work to learn to swim an activity he enjoyed throughout his life. In our copy the title page imprint of T. Moette has been replaced by a later one bearing the name of the widow Piget quai des Augustins. OCLC locates a handful of diverse titles among them an edition of Molière's works and books on gardening and natural history issued by the widow between 1748 and 1750 but OCLC and KVK locate no other institutional copies of this work with Piget's imprint and none appears in auction records. Our 1696 first printing is not a common book generally and copies in the condition seen here are very rare. Chez La Veuve Piget, s.d. [but T. Moette unknown books
