Susio's Rare Attack on Duelling: One Copy in the Last 30 Years. An important and beautifully printed attack on the practice of duelling which has become quite rare on the market whereas the second edition of 1558 shows up with some frequency. Thimm who had never seen a copy himself refers to one in "Captain Hutton's Collection" and calls for a folding plate -- in obvious error for among the 10 copies located by OCLC in institutions not one contains any plates; nor did the one dampstained copy which appeared at auction in 1996 and which was mistakenly presumed to be incomplete. <br/>Susio 1519-1583 Renaissance man of letters eminent physician humanist and poet dedicates his book to Henry II King of France who passed an ordinance against duelling. The subject of duelling and its legal ethical and social implications was a hot one in the latter half of 16th century Italy and Susio's work is among the most important of several to appear in his day Mutio il Duello 1550; Attendolo il Duello 1560; Pigna Il Duello 1560; Gallese Contra l' uso del duello 1565; et al.; and the Venetian house of the Giolito family seems to have printed many of them including this. A very desirable copy of a rare and important book on the subject. Thimm p. 280 mistakenly calling for frontispiece; Levi & Geli not in Adams; not in Brunet Apresso G.

The American husband and wife team were wealthy zealous and energetic explorers who together made many expeditions to the Himalayas.

Among other achievements she held the women's altitude record for 28 years after her conquest of 23000-ft Pinnacle Peak in 1906. Robinson Wayward Women amusingly describes her as having "practically battered the Karakorams into submission first treading them over with her squat hob-nailed figure and then pinning them down on virgin maps and charts to take home for the various Geographical Societies of England and America to fight over." This is the account of their first Himalayan expedition 1898-99 during which they reached the Karakoram Pass and explored the Biafo Glacier Neate W124. Cassell and Company hardcover books
