Vol. II 400 pages. 26 x 20 cm. Liger's "Dictionaire" was an influential French agricultural and household management dictionary covering various aspects of rural and urban household management principles, including viticulture and wine production. The dictionary gained prominence for its practical advice and detailed information. The dictionary's influence extended beyond France, and was referenced in culinary works in other countries, such as England, where recipes and techniques were adapted and incorporated into local cookbooks.

Very good +.
Description
[Evanston, IL]: n.p., 1920. Very good +.. Photographs of the Northwestern University medical school campus, buildings, treatment facilities, and a number of patients posed in various therapeutic positions or rehabilitative devices. Also included are snapshots of young medical students lounging in empty patient wards, gowned for procedures, and posing for portraits. A few hospital-affiliated women are shown, some apparently nurses (women were refused admittance to Northwestern's medical school until 1926, and then limited to four per entering class.) The photographer, likely a med student himself, closes the album with scenes of his family and friends. Among the patients photographed are a young boy, his jaw heavily bandaged, apparently following some form of reconstructive surgery; a young woman reclining in a wheeled chair; a man supine on a metal table with an oxygen tank underneath, in the course of getting a chest x-ray; and a woman standing in a complex device, head listed by a chin-strap and arms on two supportive bars. Nearly all are smiling, aware of the camera, and seem to be willing and eager participants in the picture-taking process. A unified and intimate collection of Depression-era medical images. Oblong string-tied 8vo album. Flexible black cloth covers, gilt-stamped. Rubbing and chipping of cloth to back cover. 76 black and white photographs mounted to sixteen black leaves, recto and verso. An additional four leaves are blank. Album very good; photographs very good plus.
