Description
Venice: Giunta, 1547 (colophon: 1546). Very Good. Folio (33 cm); [10] 191 [1 blank] leaves. Woodcut Giunta device on title page. Woodcut initials. Text in double columns in roman type. Shoulder notes. In limp vellum, titled in manuscript on spine; lace strips exposed; spine lining old manuscript on vellum, exposed. Small holes in first and last blanks, and inner margin of preliminary leaves. Some dampstaining on last 6 leaves, otherwise a beautiful, large, wide-margined, clean copy . The whole protected in custom built sturdy clamshell case with faux roundback spine covered in brown calf and titled in gilt. Armorial bookplate of John Aitken, with motto "in cruces salus." References: Durling 2565; Camerini 522; Adams J37. The definitive Giunta edition of the best-known work by Hippocrates (460-370 BCE). Edited with commentary by Giacomo (or Jacopo) da Forlì (d. 1414), this enlarged, improved version is the best edition of the Aphorisms published up to that point (Camerini). It was printed as part of the series of da Forlì's works, which also included his commentaries on Galen and Avicenna. The Aphorisms, translated into Latin by two Humanist scholars, Theodorus Gaza and Nicoll Leoniceno, represent "those remarkable clinical jottings (Garrison) and precise clinical observations, with the diagnoses and prognoses for various diseases. Some of the diseases are described here for the first time, such as chronic renal disease, and many of the accounts are still valid.

Description
Letter sheet (8x10), 4 pages, 3 1/2 pages of text. Some very minor bends at edges, a couple of very minor nicks, creased a little, slight aging and browning; otherwise in really nice condition. This highly legible letter to a father from his son talks about more than the "usual" life in an army camp. There are certainly routine matters covered, like receiving letters from family members and requests for money, but he also talks about his legal misfortunes. While it is unclear what issues are involved, it is clear he has some military legal problems, which he hopes to resolve by the time his regiment is 'mustered." The letter makes it sound like it is something important, and probably related to his military standing. His father appears to suggest that he should take his case to Washington, but the son decides to wait it out. The son (Jon) indicates that while he feels badly over his misfortunes, he really feels badly for his friends and relatives. This suggests, along with a comment about handling the impact on public opinion, that this case was a visible one. He also complains about the cost of living in the South, which he says is twice what it is in the North, and indicates he pays $10 per week for boarding. That would seem to be very high when measured at a soldier's pay during this period. He does throw in a couple of comments about the war including that "Sherman too is still in successful pursuit." he also states that nothing is heard from General Smith, "but his safety and success is a thing assured."
