Description
Bonn: Henry & Cohen, 1862. Atlas der pathologischen Anatomie für praktische Aerzte. 4 parts in 1. Lithographed title-pages for the 4 parts, 257 lithographed plates (93 hand-colored); plate II/15, supplied from another copy, laid in loosely. Bonn: Henry & Cohen, 1847-1842-1846-1862. 487 x 325 mm. Later half morocco, marbled boards. Minor foxing and dampstaining, some uneven toning but very good. With: Erläuterung zu dem Atlasse der pathologischen Anatomie für praktischen Aerzte. 4 vols. in 5. Bonn: Henry & Cohen, 1832-62. 207 x 125 mm. Later quarter morocco, mottled boards, hinges of Vols. II, III and IV.1 reinforced with cloth tape. Some foxing but very good. Bookplate and stamp of the Pathologisches Institut Bonn in each volume. Bookseller's ticket in both text and atlas volumes. First Edition of Albers's Atlas of Pathological Anatomy, Including the Extremely Rare Text Volumes. The atlas was published over a period of 15 years, and even more significantly the text was published over no less than 30 years, explaining why it is nearly impossible to find. This is the only copy with the text that we have handled in our more than 50 years in the trade, and only the second copy of the atlas that we have ever offered for sale. The atlas itself is rare on the market, with only two copies recorded by Rare Book Hub, and the text has no auction records. Albers studied medicine at the University of Bonn, where he became a professor in 1831 and was named director of the university's pharmacological Kabinett. He published a number of works on pathology, pathological anatomy, pharmacology, psychiatry and clinical medicine; Hirsch notes that Albers' writings show "good observation skills, versatile utilization of clinical and experimental material and boast a worthy knowledge of the literature." His atlas of pathology covers diseases of the brain and spinal cord (Part 1), the throat (Part 2), the thorax (Part 3) and the abdomen (part 4); the five text volumes are subtitled "Diseases of the meninges, brain, 4toskull, spinal cord, and vertebral column," "Diseases of the neck," "Diseases of the chest," "Diseases of the stomach, intestinal tract, appendix, colon, rectum, liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, adrenal glands, and urinary bladder," and "Diseases of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, external female genitalia (female hermaphroditism), scrotum, testes, seminal vesicles and ducts, prostate, urethra, and penis (male hermaphroditism)." Goldschmidt singles out several of Albers' plates as being of particular interest, including his illustrations of the parasitic worm Distomum (Part 4, plate 45), urogenital tuberculosis (Part 4, plate 53), tumor of the sinus and dura (Part 1, plate 3a), and tumors of the breast (Part 3, plates 44-53). Albers' atlas is a bit larger in format than Cruveilhier's. Goldschmidt, Entwicklung und Bibliographie der pathologisch-anatomischen Abbildungen, p. 171. Garrison-Morton.com 14348. .

Description
London, United Kingdom, 1800. Single four page letter measuring 4 ½ x 7 inches. Near fine. Frances Anne “Fanny” Kemble (1809–1893) was a British actor, writer, and later abolitionist. After her initial retirement from acting, she married Pierce Mease Butler, maternal grandson of American Founding Father Pierce Butler. Butler and Kemble lived in Philadelphia, but Butler had been deeded three large plantations—and the people enslaved on them—on Butler Island in Georgia. Kemble finally saw the plantations for herself several years into their marriage, and during this time wrote Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation in 1838–1839, which was critical of the conditions of the enslaved people. Butler forbade Kemble to publish the Journal; the two divorced, but it was not published until 1863. Offered here is a letter from Fanny Kemble to a publisher or newspaper editor about printing her response to a statement in an article about American slavery, likely written following her return to London in 1877. Kemble is frustrated about not having received a reply to her initial note to the publisher, which was: “in consequence of an article which appeared to me extremely likely to [?] the public judgement upon the subject of American slavery – I was extremely anxious to offer some reply to the statement in that article & wrote to you to beg you could tell me whether you would receive & publish such a communication from me [...] it contained some references to my own private circumstances which I intended for you & no one else.” Of interest to scholars of the abolitionist movement, especially women abolitionists.
