Description
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1954. First Edition. 438pp. Octavo [22 cm] Tan cloth with the title gilt stamped on the front board and backstrip. Very good/Near fine. Short closed tear to jacket's front panel with gentle rubbing to corners. Point Sublime fold-out panorama present and in nice condition. Map endsheets and pastedowns. Stegner's excellent biography of Powell, and his explorations of the Colorado River and the Colorado Plateau. Stegner points out the significance of Powell's thinking and writing on the problems of settlement of the arid lands of the West. The problem overcoming the denial of reality by people like William Gilpin, Captain Samuel Adams, and several members of Congress is an important part of the book. Stegner highlights the political maneuvering that was necessary for Powell to move his ideas forward when he was working as head of both the Geological Survey and the Bureau of Ethnology. A nice copy of this classic work. Ford 65. Colberg A13 1.a. Wallace Earle Stegner (1909-1993) was an American novelist, short story writer, environmentalist, and historian, often called 'The Dean of Western Writers'. He won the Pulitzer Prize in 1972 and the U.S. National Book Award in 1977, and through his writing program at Stanford University, influenced generations of writers (Edward Abbey, Ken Kesey, Wendell Berry, Larry McMurtry).

Description
Philadelphia: Printed and sold by R. Aitken at his Book-Store, nearly opposite the London-Coffee-House, in Front Street, 1772. Octavo, dis-bound from larger work (18 x 11.5 cm.) iv, 39, [1] pages. Publisher's advertisement to final page. Second edition; originally issued together with – but now separated from – Buchan, William, Domestic medicine; or, The family physician... Cadogan's Dissertation on the Gout has separate paging and a special title page with imprint. Aitken used this imprint from 1770 until 1773. The text is typographically identical with the Philadelphia 1771 edition printed by John Dunlap for Aitken (and crediting Dunlap). "William Cadogan (1711-1797) was one of the first to publicly blame the occurrence of gout upon its victims' immoderate habits, identifying the causes of the disease as 'Indolence, Intemperance and Vexation.' He rejected the traditional drastic treatments for gout, which included bleeding, purging and dosing with antimony, in favor of temperance, a moderate diet and regular exercise. These sensible recommendations did much to dispel the fashionable aura surrounding the disease and promoted a more rational and systematic approach to its alleviation. A Dissertation on the Gout was a sensation upon publication, going through eight editions in one year, but it was also severely criticized and lampooned by those unwilling to accept its tenets; Dr. Johnson, himself a sufferer, called it 'a good book in general. . . but a foolish one as to particulars.'" (Copeman, A Short History of the Gout and the Rheumatic Diseases). "By challenging conventional wisdom in arguing that gout was bad for the constitution, and was not a hereditary disease, Cadogan was perceived to be challenging the hereditary principle not only in medicine but also in politics, and in doing so aroused the hostility of conservatives" (ODNB). Age-toning throughout; tide line to first few leaves. Lacks wrapper. [OCLC locates just two copies (Rutgers, Ashland Theological Seminary); Austin, R.B.
