ref. 000785Soft cover. Good. Duneidin: Clodh-Bhuailte le Iain Collie 1826 that is Edinburgh Ian Collie 1826. The title translates as "The Second Book for Gaelic Schools Maintained by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland". 24mo 980 x 138mm pp72 including Introduction signed I M'D; sewn into blue sugar-paper covered thin card boards the back one creased; binding a little scuffed and worn internally clean and firm although clearly used. . . . Although churches are not part of the establishment in Scotland unlike in England the Church of Scotland is considered the national church of the country. It's presbyterian in form governed by the individual local congregations through Kirk Sessions of Elders in conjunction with the annual General Assembly and dates in form and approach largely from the Scottish Reformation of 1560 led primarily by John Knox and when the former Papal jurisdiction was repudiated by Parliament though not endorsed by the continuing Catholic Mary Queen of Scots. However its antecedents date much further back. Widened education of children and the public was a major aim of the reformers and schools began to be established funded by the Kirk by local councils and to some extent by parents where possible. Reform and extension of the then four universities also occurred these widening the curricula introducing specialist teaching and allowing the challenging of received wisdom bringing the teaching to the equal of anywhere in Europe at the time. . . . NOTE that as the book is very light in weight and small it will be sent post free on any order. paperback

1851ref. 26049Title: The Breeding and Economy of Live Stock: Being the Results of Forty Years' Practical Experience in the Management and Disposal of Cattle Horses Sheep and Pigs. Author: DICKSON James One of the Judges of the Cattle Shows of the Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland and Author of Various Papers in the Quarterly Journal of Agriculture. Publisher: Edinburgh: Adam and Charles Black North Bridge Booksellers and Publishers to the Queen. Printer: Edinburgh: Printed by Neill and Company. Date: 1851 M DCCC LI Edition: Second Edition Revised and Corrected / Custom Scottish Agricultural Tour Copy. Language: English Format: Octavo 8vo approx. 19.5 x 12.5 cm. Condition Report & Description: An entirely honest unrestored survival of a rare mid-Victorian agricultural handbook presented in its original publisher's light beige printed paper wrappers over stiff card boards or temporary printed card covers. The paper spine backstrip is completely perished and missing yet the text block remains structurally tight flat and remarkably firm on its original heavy industrial sewing. Plats and outer wrappers are naturally age-toned and rubbed showing typical shelf-wear historic stains and corner exposure. The interior is exceptionally crisp and clean featuring a beautifully preserved wood-engraved frontispiece plate of a "Short-Horned Cow Julia Age 4 Years" complete with its original protective tissue guard. The text pages finishing on page 219 followed by Adam & Charles Black's multi-page "New and Cheap Edition" publisher's announcements catalogue display very little stains or foxing remaining completely free of modern signatures text underlines or marginal markings. Provenance & Association Significance: From the historic Civil Collection of Lavigny Château de Lavigny inventory. The primary front blank flyleaf page carries a magnificent crisp contemporary dark ink ownership signature: "Louis Tronchin / Edinburgh 1852" complete with his elegant personal underline flourish. Louis Tronchin 1825–1873—the future Colonel in the Swiss Federal Army—personally acquired this volume in Scotland during an extensive mid-19th-century foreign agricultural and tactical field tour. While valuable for the estate's civil modernization his intense focus on Chapter XIV "On Horses" and general livestock mechanics directly reflects his professional development as a rising cavalry officer. In an era when remount logistics horse breeding standards and equine endurance were paramount to national defense this textbook serves as an invaluable material record of a Swiss cavalry commander analyzing advanced British veterinary and breeding sciences for strategic military application.

La première page de garde blanche porte une superbe signature d'appartenance d'époque à l'encre noire : " Louis Tronchin / Edinburgh 1852 " ornée de son grand paraphe calligraphié. L'acquisition personnelle de ce traité par Louis Tronchin 1825-1873 — futur Colonel de l'Armée Fédérale Suisse — lors de son voyage d'étude en Écosse en 1852 prend un relief tout particulier à la lumière de sa carrière militaire. Au-delà de la simple gestion domaniale son intérêt pour le chapitre XIV consacré aux chevaux " On Horses " et aux lois générales de l'élevage reflète les préoccupations d'un officier de cavalerie en pleine ascension. À une époque où la remonte la sélection des montures et l'endurance équine étaient des piliers stratégiques de la défense nationale ce volume constitue un témoignage précieux sur l'étude des sciences vétérinaires et de l'hippologie britanniques appliquées à la modernisation de la cavalerie suisse.
