Heath 1814. A Large Paper Copy. Abbey Life 365; Prideaux p. 34; Tooley 281. Slight variation in color of spine leather a bit of shelfwear to tail edge of boards just a hint of wear elsewhere; tissue guards somewhat foxed but text and plates happily unaffected. AN ESPECIALLY FINE COPY--entirely clean fresh and bright internally with vibrant coloring in a stately binding brimming with extravagantly glittering gilt. In a spectacular period binding this monumental copy of Jenkins' tribute to the British army is accompanied by an original watercolor by its illustrator. Dedicated to the Duke of Wellington who Jenkins writes in the dedicatory letter has "raised the character of the British soldier in the scale of humanity" this volume is a celebration of the victory of Britain and its allies in the Napoleonic Wars. The richly colored plates are the work of William Heath 1794/5-1840; his original watercolor offered with our volume corresponds to the plate "Entrance of the Allied Sovereigns into Leipsic sic" commemorating a decisive victory for Britain and its allies that ended Napoleon's occupation east of the Rhine and paved the way for his eventual total defeat. The watercolor reveals a notable level of delicacy with carefully rendered details emerging from the hazy clouds of battle. Now best remembered for his career as a cartoonist and caricaturist Heath began as a military painter with the present work being his best known from the period. Full of movement and drama his scenes depict pivotal moments from major British military campaigns and are accompanied by descriptions of each battle often including excerpts from the letters or reports of the officers involved. In addition to its memorable binding and its early watermarks our copy is distinguished by its size--it measures a full three inches taller than the Abbey copy with broad impressive margins around the text and illustrations.

Leitfaden für die Behandlung der auf dem Schiffe vorkommenden Krankheiten .

1847ref. 12043Bremen: F C Dubbers 1847. First Edition. Contemporary marbled boards. Very good. 8vo viii 1 - 126 pp. A succinct and rare manual for ship-board medical treatment written by a 'practical' physician that is accompanied by a supplement or appendix listing the medicines contained in the medical kit and finally a brief section on herbs and their use in cooking. Indicating the prevalence of ailments aboard ship the text is divided into sections dealing with fever inflammation nervous ailments gastric ailments infectious disease esp. typhus. Wounds etc. are briefly covered. Emphasis is on true illness. It is remarkable that this book was written by an apprenticed 'physician' who considers each ailment from practical experience rather than a clincal perspective. Such manuals do appear in English; they are usually brief. This German language manual is unusual since there was little voyaging originating in Germany at this time - coastal trips being the norm and therefore not out of range of quick medical assistance if needed. Therefore its detailed text outlining symptoms and treatment and the list of medicines are beyond what is encountered in the English language pamphlets of the period. Unlocated.

The Book of Esther in the Age of Rembrandt

2025ref. 213804New York / Raleigh NC / New Haven CT: Jewish Museum / North Carolina Museum of Art / Yale University Press 2025. Hardcover. New. In shrinkwrap. Quarto. Hardcover. Bound in pink and green cloth with color plate mounted to the center front board. No jacket as issued. 157 pages : color illustrations ; 29 cm. "An exploration of how the biblical heroine Queen Esther a symbol of resilience and a figure of immense popularity was portrayed in seventeenth-century Dutch art. In the age of Rembrandt van Rijn the biblical Book of Esther was a popular source of inspiration for diverse communities in the Netherlands both Jewish and Christian. Traditionally the Esther story is read annually on the Jewish holiday of Purim. For immigrant Jewish communities living with new freedom in more tolerant Amsterdam celebrating Purim--notably through finely produced Esther scrolls and theater productions-became a meaningful expression of Jewish culture. For the Dutch Queen Esther's heroism came to represent their emerging nation's identity. Rembrandt and his contemporaries depicted essential scenes of Esther's story in paintings prints drawings and decorative arts. Examining how Esther was represented in art and popular culture in Rembrandt's time this beautifully illustrated volume includes essays that discuss the visual culture and ceremonial art of Purim and examine the queen's status as a heroine in seventeenth-century Netherlands. A postscript reveals Esther's continued appeal through a close look at work by contemporary American artist Fred Wilson who reimagines the biblical heroine as the abolitionist Harriet Tubman. Published in association with the Jewish Museum New York and the North Carolina Museum of Art Raleigh"-- Provided by publisher.

Remainder mark minor tear to spine base. 2005 Trade Paperback. xii 204 pp. In this book Timothy Silver traces the effects of English settlement on South Atlantic ecology showing how all three cultures--Indian European and African--interacted with and were in turn affected by their changing environment. In assessing such ecological changes Silver pays particular attention to regional variations explaining how local geography and settlement patterns influenced the environment. And while his focus is the English South Silver also shows us how economic and ecological developments in Europe the Caribbean and elsewhere frequently dictated how South Atlantic colonists used their land. Consequently his book provides an engaging and detailed look at the complex relationships among humans plants and animals in a unique and diverse region of North America.
