The third volume lacks its back cover and has a detached front cover with some staining present; the fourth volume shows wear and tear along the edges. First and only editions of these four exceedingly rare volumes form an invaluable collection presenting the earliest statistical tables that shed light on the diseases most commonly and least frequently encountered in early twentieth-century Ottoman Istanbul the causes of death resulting from illness and other factors average life expectancy and the overall health conditions of the city's population. The registers constitute an exceptional data source as the information is systematically disaggregated by religious affiliation Muslim and non-Muslim age and gender and further classified by neighbourhood and season. The statistical data contained in these registers documenting the causes of death in Istanbul and its surrounding districts is based on information compiled from ten divisions of the Department of Health Affairs as well as from major medical institutions including the Sixth Department Hospital Darü'l-Aceze Haseki Nisa Hospital Gümüssuyu Hospital Gureba-yi Müslimîn Hospital Toptasi Bîmârhâne the French Hospital the Jérémie Hospital established by the French Lazarists the Yedikule Armenian Hospital the Russian Hospital and the Italian British and German hospitals. According to these statistics tuberculosis organic heart failure and pneumonia were among the leading causes of death in Istanbul. Infant and child mortality also occupies a prominent place in the records largely attributable to poverty lack of education and inadequate hygienic conditions. Rare surviving copies from the statistical registers known to have been published between 1899 and 1907 specifically those for the years 1902 two issues 1903 and 1907. All these statistical bulletins are extremely rare; according to WorldCat only three copies are recorded worldwide in institutional holdings.

England probably Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge ca. 1840's-1850's.

Front board almost detached. A well used field copy. The Crimean War prayer book of John Matthews of the 21st Royal North British Fusiliers with extensive manuscript inscriptions locating him at the British camp before Sebastopol and at Scutari. Matthews records himself on an endleaf as "John Matthews No. 4 Company/21st R.N.B. Fusiliers/Camp before Sebastopol/4th Division." Elsewhere he signs the volume variously as "Private 21st Regt" and Corpl. J. Matthews 21st Fusiliers." A particulary evocative ownership verso reads in part "John Matthews is my name and England is my nation/Crimea is my dwelling place and Christ is my salvation" followed by the traditional lines asking that the little book remember him after his death. Additional manuscript entries include "Scutari Bk. Hosp./Near Constantinople" apparently referring to the Barrack Hosiptal at Scutari together with a list of Crimean locations and actions: "Alma" "Inkerman" "Balaclava"and "Sebastopol." The 21st Royal North British Fusiliers served with the 4th Division in the Crimea and participated in the principal operations of the campaign. An unusually personal surviving devotional object from the Crimean War: a soldiers pocket Book of Common Prayer carried and repeatedly inscribed during the campaign with direct contemporary references to Sebastopol Scutari and the major battles of the war. The partial SPCK blind stamp is particularly appropriate the Society having distributed Prayer Books among British servicemen during the period.

Regulations of the Prices of the Commissions in all His Majesty's Land Forces.

1720Best.-Nr. 160753London: J. Roberts and A. Dodd 1720. A price list for the purchase system - commissions in the C18th British army First edition of the first formalized listing of the terms and prices applying to the purchase of military commissions a system which obtained in the British Army or equivalent from around 1660 until removed in the Cardwell Reforms of 1871. Rare ESTC has four copies in the UK Library Hub adds National Library of Scotland World Cat locates eight copies in North America and one at the University of Queensland. This is a window onto a complex and contentious area of debate not least because the practice was illegal for large parts of its operation; "The 'system' comprehending purchase and sale was constrained by a range of laws warrants orders rules custom and connived at abuses. Sale of commissions for significant periods of its vigourous life was specifically and incontrovertibly contrary to law even including the Royal Prerogative. The same prohibition was matched by indubitably established official recognition acceptance or condonement. Further and perhaps not surprisingly few conclusions of principle can be adumbrated without fear of contrary evidence" Scouller p. 217. A system which required each of the advancing officers to pay the officer stepping down that proportion of the commission price that represented the difference between their new and old ranks see Scouller p. 223 was surely nigh on impossible to administer and how far the list prices were adhered to tends to be transactionally and anecdotally obfuscated. The largest "tariff" noted here is £9000 for the purchase of the colonelcy of Lord Irwin's Regiment the King's Regiment of Horse a sum which if factored against the wage of the average worker at the time comes to a staggering £20 million today. The "acquisition of colonelcies. is neither so widely known nor as well documented" as for ranks up to and including lieutenant-colonel and was something that George I had attempted to stop at the very beginning of his reign - "that Evil Practice" - but was only eventually eradicated under his great-grandson George III Hayes p. 3. The circumstances of Irwin's purchase of the regiment from Lord Lumley in 1717 with its valuation at £9000 - the secretary-at-war had noted in broaching the subject that "no regiment can be in better condition" Hayes p. 8 - is the best documented of any such transaction due to the survival of a large tranche of correspondence between Irwin and his agent Richard Worthington. Irwin gathered the funds to cover purchase with 3000 guineas from his colonelcy in the 16th Foot a loan of £1500 each from his agent and from the government and a further £1500 from the sale of stock. The rest was offset in a slightly unseemly fracas over "off reckonings" allowances made for regimental clothing and equipment between Worthington and Lumley to include a payment of £500 "for to buy Hatts gloves & odd Matters ye Ensueing Year" and also giving "ye Lordship the Trumpetters Horse & other considerations". This is a scarce piece which offers insight into an elusive and important subject. Folio 322 x 195 mm pp. 8. Twentieth-century red half morocco gold vein overprint on Turkish pattern marbled boards lettered in gilt longitudinally bulked with blanks. Very light shelf-wear contents lightly toned and a little creased a very good copy. Goldsmiths' 5747.
