185221741Philadelphia: John Sartain & Co 1852. First English Edition. Disbound. Good. First English Edition. A non-contiguous assemblage of material from Sartain's Union Magazine and Godey's Lady's Book from 1851 and 1852. The volume missing the front board would benefit from being disassembled and rebound in it's component parts - half title pages are mis-matched engravings are found in odd places etc. We have not collated this volume and cannot guarantee completeness of the other articles engravings etc other than to note that the Verne and Thoreau articles noted in this description are present and complete and that the issue title pages are also present hence the pricing at well below "market values". There are numerous other interesting items in this assemblage including an early poem with color plate Godey engravings etc etc. Disbound. Contains 2 literary giants in original publications before they were well known - Jules Verne and Henry David Thoreau. The Verne piece "A Voyage in a Balloon" was translated from the French by Anne T. Wilbur. Taves and Michaluk V012 p 143 note that "This was apparently the first time Verne ever appeared in English . The assemblage also contains "The Iron Horse" and "A Poet Buying a Farm" both by Thoreau. These articles are notable for being early contributions to Thoreau's famous work "Walden Or Life in the Woods" published in 1854 which detailed his personal experiences and reflections near Walden Pond in Concord Massachusetts.

They refined Lavoisier's experiments on measuring the oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production of animals and calculated the first good ratios of what came to be called the "RESPIRATORY QUOTIENT". It was the use of the apparatus and methods developed here that enabled scientists the world over to gain some understanding of utilization of energy by many different animals.The inspiration for the space age scientific novel by JULES VERNE "De la Terre a la Lune" 1865 was based on the methods described by Regnault and Reiset in this paper to provide oxygen and remove carbon dioxide produced by men dogs and chickens in the "projectile". The paper is cited several times in this famous novel.The species study in the Regnault and Reiset collaboration included warm-blooded animals such as dogs cats and rabbits as well as hibernating and non-hibernating marmots. Cold-blooded animals such as frogs salamanders reptiles and lizards were also described.In over 100 experiments their assays included the effects of temperature season diet level of nutrition compositionof air sex hibernation age body weights and other variables onrespiratory exchange and nitrogen exhalation or absorption Based on W.
