Rappresentazione topografica della porzione di litorale compresa tra Saint Jean Cap Ferrat e la città di Monaco. Nell'angolo in alto a sinistra decorativo cartiglio in cui è riportato il titolo, la posizione in base a latitudine e longitudine della cittdina di Saint Jean Cap Ferrat. Nell'angolo in basso a destra è riportata la scala grafica di "Miglie due graduate".La mappa fa parte della raccolta realizzata dal Vice Ammiraglio della Reale Marina Michele Giuseppe Albini, intitolata "Portolano della Liguria". Questi si era accorto che nei portolani del mediterrraneo veniva fatta scarsa o nessuna menzione dei porti e delle rade della Liguria. "...venendo in oggi questo tratto di costa molto frequentato da bastimenti d'estere bandiere i quali fanno anche operazioni commerciali in alcuna di tale rade, io pensai che non sarebbe tornato soverchio ed infruttuoso al commercio ed ai naviganti che approdano in quei punti del territorio marittimo de nostri stati di terraferma la pubblicazione di un Portolano speciale...". L'attento lavoro di rilevazione svolto garantì, oltre alla misurazione delle profondità, anche l'indicazione della qualità del fondale espresso sulla carta con l'utilizzo delle lettere. Troviamo così specificato se vi era presenza di sabbie, fanghi, pietre o alghe.

Roy. 4to., First Edition, with 20 fine full-page tinted plates and an illustration in the text; original pictorial wrappers, front wrapper (only) stained, uncut edges a lightly frayed as often else a remarkably crisp, clean copy. Sir Muirhead Bone (1876-1953) created much of his finest work as Official Artist on the Western Front in WWI. The culmination of this period is his striking series of drawings (over 200 in all) published as 'The Western Front' (1916-17). Issued in ten monthly parts, each number contained 20 plates captioned on the facing page with text by C.E. Montague and prefaced by a short introduction by GHQ (it is believed that the introduction to the first part was penned personally by Douglas Haig). The original parts were later combined and sold as two bound volumes (volume one comprising parts 1-5 and volume two parts 6-10). The parts were sometimes loosely themed, e.g. 'Trench Scenery', 'The Battle of Arras', but whatever the subject the best of his work is quite outstanding. '[Bone] brings the contrasts and the anonynimity of that First World War to life in chalk and pencil. Bone was particularly good at observing vast industrial activity and in showing myriad figures from above, a sort of Piranesi in reverse' 'Houfe' (1978). Copies of the original issues are uncommon, especially in this condition. Enser, p.26.

The dustwrapper carries the first state price of 12s 6d rather than the later 15s. The first edition of Bone's contribution to this wonderful and much sought-after series was published in 1938. This thoroughly revised edition is scarce in its own right, especially in this condition. VERY SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.

20 pamphlets bound in one, nineteenth-century buckram. George Buchanan (1827-1906), surgeon, son of Moses Steven Buchanan (1796?1860) surgeon to the Glasgow Royal Infirmary and lecturer on anatomy in the Portland Street medical school from 1836 to 1841, when he was appointed professor of anatomy in the Andersonian University. George Buchanan was educated at the University of Glasgow and went on to study under his father and others at the Andersonian University, he became M.D. St. Andrews and L.R.C.S. Edinburgh, and in 1852 fellow of the Royal Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. "In early life Buchanan volunteered to have chloroform anaesthesia demonstrated on himself, when his father performed a minor operation on him. He began to practise in Glasgow, but in 1856 he went to the Crimea as a civil surgeon. He returned to Glasgow at the end of the war, and was one of the first to practise there purely as a consulting surgeon. In 1860, when he succeeded his father as professor of anatomy in the Andersonian University, he was also appointed surgeon to the Glasgow Royal Infirmary. He soon became known as a bold and skilful operator, and as a good teacher. He was the first to point out (in 1865 and 1867) the possibility and safety of removing half the tongue in cases of cancer, and he was among the first surgeons to remove the upper jaw (in 1864 and 1869). He gave reasons for preferring lithotrity to lithotomy in operating for stone in the adult male, in 1868, and he was the first to perform ovariotomy successfully in the west of Scotland, in 1863."?(Oxford DNB). 1.
