Two volumes xvi 471 and viii 518 pp. With 24 pages of publisher's advertisements dated 1887 at the rear of each volume. Title pages with the original Henry G.

Ennemoser 1787-1854 was a Tyrolean physician and a leading advocate of animal magnetism and his history reads the whole of magic through mesmerism and somnambulism. The set evidently descended to Horace's son Charles Coleman Sellers 1903-1980 biographer of Charles Willson Peale and librarian of Dickinson College and penciled accession notes record its gift to the Dickinson Library in 1959 in memory of his wife Helen Earle Gilbert Sellers 1903-1951.

200032 pages plus lengthy appendix listing the names and particulars of study participants. Approx. 3/4" thick. "During World War II, Dr. F.A.L. Mathewson was responsible for examination of male aircrew recruits for the Royal Canadian Air Force. His evaluatioon of the fitness of these recruits for pilot training included medical histories, physical examinations, measurments of height, weight, and blood pressure. As well, and unique at that time, was the inclusion of an electrocardiogram, even though its value was uncertain and it was not used as a criterion for recruitment. At the end of the War, several thousand medical records, including the electrocardiograms, were available... Dr. Mathewson thought it was a good opportunity to predict future health of those men... " The rest is history, and it is provided in this volume. "The major result of this Study has been the meticulous accumulation of fifty-three years of medical data." - page 14. Light wear at edges.
