London: E. Marlborough and Co., 1894. First and only edition. This is a very good copy. The maroon cloth shows some faint staining to the front panel, with light bumping at the tips and corners, and slight lifting at the foot of the spine. Internally, the gutters are slightly cracked but remain firm. There is some loss to the final leaf of text. The book is inscribed to the front pastedown, 'R. B. Raffles 1898' in black ink. These are the initals of R. B. Raffles, Assistant Curate and licensed in the Diocese of London. His father was William Winter Raffles, whose uncle was Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles. Loosely inserted is a letter by William Henry Macleod Read, the British statesman involved in the commercial, political, and social life of Singapore between 1841 and 1887. His card is tagged in, with an address added in manuscript: '16 Montpelier Row, Blackheath'. Written in black ink, it is a fascinating letter. It notes that the author of this title, a Dutchman, "is hardly fair to Sir Stamford". He continues with remarks on the site of Government House, as established by Sir Stamford Raffles, and the landscape of Java. It concludes: "I am an old Singaporean. I arrived | there in 1841 & left it for good in 1889 - | my father arrived there in 1828 & left | in 1836. | I knew Lady Raffles and Ellen, Mr | Flint & all that family. I mention | that to show that I write with earned | authority." Remarkably, as Read himself asserts, this letter is indeed written with earned authority on Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, Singapore, and Java. It is signed at the foot 'M. H. Read'. Overall, this is a superb association copy, linking the Raffles family with later scholarship on the life and work of Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 4to (19.6 cm), contemporary dutch vellum with gold title on label at spine, a good, clean and genuine copy. Engraved frontispiece (bound after the printed title), printed title in red and black, pp. [20 incl. front.], 274, [6 nn.], with 38 figures on 35 engraved plates, some of them signed Phi[lippe] Bouttats. Small stamp of release from a German library on printed title. First Edition in Latin (in the same year as the Dutch original). Deventer gave the first accurate description of the female pelvis and its deformities, thus providing the practical basis for modern obstetrics. Deventer made it absolutely clear that the woman's bony pelvis was unyielding during labor, and that pelvic abnormalities and deformities of the spine as well had to be considered by the obstetrician. He corrected Mauriceau's misconception of the growth of the uterus in pregnancy, and made the first attempt at an accurate description of the axis of the birth-canal. Deventer "became interested in bone deformities because of his extensive experience in obstetrics, unusual for a male practitioner at that time. He noted, first, the many abnormal pelves which interfered with parturition. Among them were many cases associated with scoliosis. The latter condition attracted his attention, and much of his effort thereafter was spent in the study of spinal deformities ." (Bick 56). Garrison-Morton n. 6253 (for the Dutch edition). This work was translated into German, French and English, and went out of date only after the mid-nineteenth century. Speert, Milestones 159 & Iconographia 212 & 517. Thoms 11-15. Cutter & Viets 13.

Academie Rector" Utrecht, 1667 - Zeugnis für Henningym Leopoldym A Neiendorff / Henning Leopold aus Neiendorf / Neyendorf / Henning Leopold von Neindorff (hatte bereits 1662 an der Universität Helmstedt eine Abhandlung über die Königin Semiramis veröffentlicht. Als Ordinarius und Rektor der Universität bescheinigt Graevius ausführlich dem aus dem Braunschweigischen stammenden Hennig Leopold von Neindorff, daß er "in hac nostra Academia per continuum triennium & ultra dedisse operam praeclararum arttium studiis quibis excellentia ingenia ad cultum magnae fortunae, dignasque suis natalibus virtutes excitantur; tanto cum profectu, ut omnibus fuerit admirationi simul & in deliciis. Nam eruditionem, qua impleverat pectus, singularis quaedam morum suavitas & sanctitas commendabat, qua omnium animos & voluntates sibi conciliabat, & devinctas quasi tenebat". Schönes Zeugnis, das Graevius zu einer kleinen, moralischen Abhandlung ausweitet. - Mit dem wohlerhaltenen Siegel der Universität Utrecht.- "Seine reichhaltige Bibliothek kam mit Ausnahme der Handschriften und der Editiones in usum Delpini in den Besitz der Heidelberger Universitätsbibliothek" (ADB über Graevius).
