[Signed] [First Edition] Reviewers Reviewed: A Challenge to Historical Critics [A Paper Read at the William L. Clements Library, University of
485.18 CAD
Rare monograph challenging concensus critics of the historical record; composed response and signed by Otto Eisenschiml at title page: "Sincerely, Otto Eisenschiml." Very attractive. Sienna washed with a ruddy red boards, cream titled plate to cover, moderate shelf, corner wear, rub. Heavy stock leaves, near fine; no writing. String-bind, fine. Protected in clear sleeve. Rare sharp signed first edition. In this paper addressed to critics of his book "Why Was Lincoln Murdered?", Otto Eisenschiml politely takes aim at establishment historians. His first and most pivotal book peeled back the layers of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and layed out the conspiracy. The deadly act was much more than a lone gunman actor played by John Wilkes Booth. Many parties were involved in the planning and aftermath including those at Lincoln's right and left hand side. Features a foreword laying out the milieu of this forum at The William L. Clements Library in Ann Arbor on The University of Michigan campus. The address from Eisenschiml and discussion following lasted throughout the night of Feb. 9, 1940. Preeminent historians and scholars from the university were in attendance, the historical critics who made their hollow jabs though their written reviews were not. 22 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall
[Signed] [First Edition] A grouping of letters and contract papers relating to the proposed supply of Fabre Scout Gliders to the British War Office
1348.85 CAD
FABRE, Henri (1882-1984) Instructions for Care and Running of the Henri Fabre Glider. [WITH:] Typed correspondence and contract papers relating to the proposed supply of Fabre scout-gliders to the British War Office. St Raphael (Var) and Paris, 1917. Folio (c. 210 x 290 mm). Typed handbook, 13 pp., with technical diagrams and inserts, including cyanotype blueprints (one folding) and an original photograph (c. 170 x 120 mm) of the glider in operation, stamped 'Chantiers d'Aviation Henri Fabre, Marseille'. Together with a signed typed letter from Henri Fabre to Commander A. Hamilton (2 pp.), a carbon copy contract and specification document (4 pp., marked "Duplicate Copy"), original envelope addressed to Hamilton at the Hotel Balzac, Paris and another loose photograph of the Glider. Contemporary punched file. Condition: Handbook brittle at edges with toning and loss to lower corner of front sheet; occasional chipping and handling wear throughout; blueprints and photographs generally well-preserved; correspondence folded as issued. A fragile but complete working archive. A unique First World War technical and administrative archive documenting British War Office interest in experimental high-speed water-gliders developed by the French aviation pioneer Henri Fabre. Compiled by Commander A. Hamilton, Director of Inland Waterways and Docks at the War Office, the file sets out the operational principles, handling characteristics, and mechanical specifications of Fabre's "glisseur" craft - hybrid machines designed to skim at speed across water, combining marine and aeronautical engineering. The handbook emphasises the aeroplane-like construction and handling of the craft, explicitly distinguishing it from conventional motor boats, and includes detailed sections on engine performance (notably a Renault 8-cylinder unit), steering systems, and launch procedures. The accompanying cyanotype plans illustrate fuel systems and cockpit arrangements, while the contract material specifies demanding trial conditions, including sustained high-speed performance under load, indicating serious consideration for military deployment. Fabre's signed letter to Hamilton, dated 29 August 1917, discusses refinements to the design and proposed improvements, including the possible adoption of electric starting systems, and confirms ongoing negotiations for the supply of multiple machines. Henri Fabre (1882-1984), pioneer of the first successful seaplane flight in 1910, here appears in a later and little-documented phase of his work, adapting his designs to wartime requirements. Provenance: From the library of Arthur W. J. G. Ord-Hume, aviation historian and former Keeper of Aeronautics at the Science Museum, with his note loosely inserted stating the file to be unique and that no-one knows of its existence. Unrecorded and almost certainly unique in this assembled form.

First Edition, First Printing. This copy has the date 1912 printed on the title page, which means it is the first printing.

Bookplate of Irving S. Cutter. The inscription is not dated, so I do not know when Kanavel gave Cutter this copy. From 1925 when Cutter became Dean of the Medical School at Northwestern, Kanavel and Cutter were colleagues at Northwestern. Cutter was a great bibliophile, which led to a friendship with Harvey Cushing. See John F. Fulton, "The Letters and Libraries of Irving S. Cutter and Harvey Cushing", Quarterly Bulletin, Northwestern University Medical School, Vol. 20, 1946. Back to Kanavel's book. Garrison-Morton 4386.01: "The first comprehensive treatise on hand surgery, and the classic work on tendon and bursal hand spaces relevant to management of hand infections." Kanavel's "monograph on Infections of the Hand became a classic of American surgical literature. Beyond that, it did more to awaken the surgical conscience to the anatomic intricacies of hand surgery than did almost any other single contribution" (Bick, Source Book of Orthopaedics. 2d ed., p. 411). Boyes, On the Shoulders of Giants, pp. 170-72. Orr, A Catalogue of the H. Winnett Orr Historical Collection no. 823. Heirs of Hippocrates 2296. "Early in his surgical career Dr. Kanavel was struck by the haphazard treatment accorded patients with severe infections of the hand. This led to his anatomic study of the tendon sheaths and fascial spaces of the hand by injecting them with an opaque material and carefully observing the route and spread of the extension of the injected material. These studies were done during a period of nearly 10 years and were incorporated in 1912 in a monograph entitled Infections of the Hand [offered here]. These studies, as they were applied to clinical practice, revolutionized the treatment of hand infections. The book was accepted widely throughout the world and its popularity is attested to by the publication of 7 editions through 1939. It was the only practical textbook on the care of the hand during World War I. To this day it is considered the seminal work on this common and often serious condition" (Daniel J. Nagle, "The Chicago School of Hand Surgery", Journal of Hand Surgery Vol. 28A, 2003, pp. 724 725). "Kanavel initially described three cardinal signs of pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis in his seminal work in 1912 as '1. Exquisite tenderness over the course of the sheath, limited to the sheath. 2. Flexion of the finger. 3. Exquisite pain on extending the finger, most marked at the proximal end'. Although not noted in his initial description...
