Description
New York: Appleton, 1893. FIRST EDITION, SECOND PRINTING. Original publisher’s cloth, worn around the edges and corners as well as edges of spine; interior very good. Ownership inscription of H.L. Willis (?) on the fly-leaf. First edition, second printing with “Gorgias” spelled correctly on the verso of the third leaf and the publisher’s advertisements dated December, 1892. Osler’s textbook was the best English work on medicine of its time. It provided a systematized text on internal medicine as well as relevant information from the great advances in the laboratory sciences, particularly bacteriology. The chapters describe specific diseases by systems, a pattern since followed by most textbooks. This book became a standard text for students and practitioners in every country and language in the world.

Description
Greenwich, CT: Crest / Fawcett Publications, Inc, 1959. First edition. Fine.. First printing of Lawrence Block's first published novel, the derivative but accomplished product of the 19-year-old author's studious reading of "every other lesbian novel I could lay my hands on." Nearly out of his teens and desperate to publish a novel, Block temporarily laid aside detective fiction to produce this sad story of an Indiana girl in Greenwich Village, longing for "the beautiful Lesbian who could bring her the pleasure she wanted but was afraid to accept." In a memoir of his writing career, Block explains the novel's genesis: "The sensitive novel of female homosexuality was a popular category in the fifties and I suspect I read the books more for information and titillation than anything else. [...] I sat down and wrote the thing start to finish in two weeks flat, finishing four days before my twentieth birthday. It sold to Fawcett, the first publisher to see it, and I was a published novelist just like that." 7'' x 4.25''. Original pictorial wrappers by Barye Phillips. Crest s336. 144 pages. Very slight edgewear, faint vertical crease to front cover.
