Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Published in 1919, this is the scarce first edition of this important study into Trench Fever published immediately after the First World War. This is a Unique Association Copy: and includes an original typed and signed letter by Major William Byam (W. Byam), the primary author of the boo…k. Byam was a major in the Royal Army Medical Corps (R.A.M.C.) who led the British War Office Committee on Trench Fever. The letter is addressed directly to co-author Captain J. H. Churchill written from New End Military Hospital, dated 30th June 1919. New End Military Hospital, Hampstead, N.W.3. was a vital location in medical history. Originally a workhouse infirmary, it was requisitioned during WWI as a military hospital specifically dedicated to researching trench fever and heart conditions affecting soldiers Byam explicitly mentions distributing this "Trench Fever book" via Oxford Press and details transitioning Churchill's medical responsibilities (specifically his "blood counting method") to a successor. The letter reads "Herewith four copies of the Trench Fever book; should you require more I will try and get them out of the Oxford Press for you, but cannot promise to succeed." "I am glad to say I have at last got a successor to take on your job -- quite a keen man named Coles. I have told him about your blood counting method and said that when he found his feet, I would ask you whether you could spare time some day to come and give him a demonstration. I should think in about a week's time he should have learnt sufficient about trench fever to make a start." The book features the official bookplate of the Wellcome Unit for the History of Medicine Library, University of Oxford, cleanly stamped "Withdrawn," confirming its legal deaccession and direct link back to Oxford's historic collections. CONDITON The books covers have some general edge wear rubbing, and a stamp along top page edges (pictured) internally bookplate of the Wellcome History of Medicine Library to front pastedown and a further library label and stamp to front free endpaper (pictured) the letter is tipped in to the reverse of the frontispiece and has a small Wellcome Library stamp to its reverse. Contents in good condition. An exceptional, museum-quality association copy of this landmark World War I medical text. Inscribed by Author(s).
