Australia: R. Howe, Government Printer, 1825. Fine copy in restored original binding.. Small quarto, with a folding table, some light browning; a fine copy, complete with the errata leaf, in contemporary polished half-calf over marbled boards, bumped, sympathetically rebacked, with most of the original spine laid down, lettered and decorated in gilt. Fine copy of the iconic work on Australian wine, in the preferred "quarto" format. Only very rarely seen on the market: this is the first book on Australian wine, the first book on wine to be published in Australia and the first book to carry the imprint "Australia" on the title page. This copy corresponds with the special issue in quarto format on thicker paper identified by the bibliographer Ferguson - though it has been convincingly argued that the difference between copies is not so much a question of issue as of the particular materials, especially paper, available to the publisher at the time. By 1825 the publishing industry in Sydney was mature but still slight of build, and certainly still subject to the vagaries of supply.James Busby, the father of Australian viticulture, was born in Scotland in 1801; he emigrated to New South Wales in 1824 after visiting the Bordeaux region of France where he studied methods of viticulture. He published his Treatise very shortly after his arrival in the colony. Five years later he published his Manual of Plain Directions that was aimed at small settlers whom he hoped would be able to "enjoy their daily bottle of wine, the produce of their own farms". Busby received a grant on the uppe … [Click Below for Full Description]

Tafeln, Ledereinband der Zeit; Rücken erneuert, minimal fleckig; sehr gutes Exemplar. Selten - Zweite um Anhänge erweitere Ausgabe ! Eines der schönsten, farbigen Abbildungswerke der Medizin überhaupt. Ein "Opus Magnum" der Dermatologie. Dieses berühmteste und umfangreichste Werk von Baron Jean Louis Alibert (1768-1837) bringt auf seinen 63 luxuriös ausgestatteten Farbtafeln eine umfassende Beschreibung der Hautkrankheiten. Das kostbare Werk ist mit einmalig schönen Bildnissen geschmückt, das Handcolorit ist zart und zurückhaltend. Durch die Beifügung der Accessoires des täglichen Lebens wurde den Abbildungen eine nie wieder erreichte Realistik verliehen. Das Charakteristische der Effloreszenzen ist auf jedem Quadratzentimeter eines Blattes minutiös herausgearbeitet. Der Text ist klar gegliedert. Das "Hôpital St.Louis", im Norden von Paris, wurde 1607 von König Henri IV gegründet. Es war zunächst ein Pesthaus, ab 1791 wurde es ein allgemeines Krankenhaus. Alibert gelang 1800 der Institution einen großen Namen zu verschaffen. Aus der Arbeit mit der Vielzahl chronisch Kranker konnte Alibert seine immense klinische Erfahrung gewinnen. Sein Unterricht war beispielhaft und er gilt als der Erstbeschreiber des Keloids, der Mycosis fungoides, der Akromegalie, sowie der Sklerodermie. Die Tafelwerke brachten ihm großes Ansehen und Ehre ein. Nach der Restauration erhielt er noch den Leibarztposten bei Ludwig XVIII. "Durch die Abbildun … [Click Below for Full Description]

A very good copy. First edition. 'Decidedly the best work on the subject' (McCulloch, Literature of Political Economy>, p.298). 'The alarming increase in pauperism in England, and its steady, though less rapid, progress in some parts of our own country, have, of late years, attracted general attention to the provision made by law for the relief of the poor. The valuable disquisitions and experiments of Dr Chalmers have thrown much light on the baneful tendency, in a moral and political point of view, of a negligent administration of the Poor Laws; and a very general endeavour appears now to be made throughout Scotland, by those to whom the management of the poor is intrusted, to administer the poor's funds with due diligence and circumspection. Such being the state of public feeling, I have been struck with the want of a treatise containing a brief and practical view of our law touching the management of the poor, and I have attempted, in the following short Treatise, to supply the deficiency.' [Preface]. Alexander Dunlop (1798-1870), church lawyer and politician, also published a treatise on the law of patronage and another on parochial law. He earnestly supported the 'non-intrusion' party in the church, which he professionally defended on all occasions. [Attributes: First Edition; Hard Cover]

Edinburgh: Printed for Daniel Lizars, 1825. FIRST EDITION. 8vo, 178 x 112 mms., pp. [iv], including half-title, contemporary half calf, marbled boards (rubbed), spine gilt, red leather label; slight wear to joints, but a very good copy. The title refers to a book by the surgeon and geologist John Macculloch (1773 - 1835) entitled The Highlands and Western Islands of Scotland (1824), in which he argued, or at least asserted, that the occupants of Scotland's highlands were lazy and should be cleared from the land. Needless to say, the book did not meet with universal approval. Browne's book begins with a survey of recent works on the highlands and highlanders, with, for example, this observation on Samuel Johnson's : "full of grumbling, saucy, ill-natured observations, the spawn of a mind contracted and illiberal, deeply imbued with prejudice, and incomparably more enamoured of antithesis than truth,--the whole being delivered in that pompous domineering tone of insolent superiority, which, from long habit and slavish acquiescence, had become habitual and natural to him." Browne's critical examination of Macculloch's work meets with ever more invective and abuse. The Quarterly Review noted in 1827 that "The unexampled unanimity of opinion which has been expressed by the Literary Press of this Country on this Spirited Defence of the Highlanders, has placed its character as a work of Controversy in a more conspicuous light than any other work of the kind which has appeared since M'Nicoll's Remarks on Johnson."

PREMIERE EDITION française de ce récit de voyage en Birmanie. En 1795, au service de la Compagnie anglaise des Indes orientales, le capitaine Hiram Cox fut envoyé en Birmanie pour tenir des négociations commerciales auprès de la cour impériale. Satisfait de sa conduite, on le chargea aussitôt de secourir la population de la province d'Arakan, qui était alors tyrannisée par le gouvernement birman. Mais au cours de cette mission, sous un climat ambiant pénible, Hiram Cox trouva la mort en 1798. Ses papiers et son journal furent ensuite récupérés par son fils Henry, qui les publia en 1821 à Londres, sous le titre The Journal of a Residence in the Burman Empire, soit plus de vingt ans après la parution de l'ouvrage du major Michael Symes, qui avait aussi participé à la première mission (An account of an Embassy of the Kingdom of Ava.., Londres, 1800). "Complément indispensable" du voyage de Symes, la relation de Cox livre un témoignage précieux sur la Birmanie, une "contrée tellement peu connue, que son nom semble [...] se révéler pour la première fois à l'Europe" (p.

Joseph Chitty (1775-1841) was an English lawyer and legal writer, author of some of the earliest practitioners' texts and founder of an important dynasty of lawyers. He practised as a special pleader under the bar for some years before his call to the bar, which took place at the Middle Temple on 28 June 1816. He enjoyed an enormous practice, and trained a great number of the most eminent lawyers, and poured forth a series of standard practitioners' books. His learning and his memory were alike extraordinary, and although inclining to excessive technicality he did more than perhaps any man of his time to facilitate the study of the law.

Thomas and George Underwood, 1825. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. [v], vi-viii, [2], 3-151, [1]p. First edition. Bound in full calf. David Lester Richardson (1801-1865) was a poet and writer. "He became a cadet in the Bengal army, and went to India in 1819, where he contributed poetry to the Calcutta Journal in 1820, and published 'Miscellaneous Poems' (1822). In 1824 he returned to England for health reasons, and founded the 'London Weekly Review', which afterwards became Colburn's Court Journal. He also published another volume of poetry, 'Sonnets and other Poems' (1825), which was reprinted as 'Sonnets and Miscellaneous Poems Written in India', in Jones's 'Diamond Poets' (1827), and again in 'Jones's Cabinet of the British Poets' (1837). The inflated nature of the notes to these reprints was criticized by John Wilson (Christopher North), who thought little of Richardson's work, referring to him as 'The Diamond Poet, who published three hunder and sixty-five panegyrics on his ain genius, by way of Notes and Illustrations to his Sonnets' (Noctes Ambrosianae, 60, December 1828)." - ODNB Condition: Very good.
