Nineteenth century newsclipping applied to last two blank pages -- "Pre-Historic America - The Story of the North Men" Former owner's name on title page " Balch / Feb 24 / 1874 at Newport R. I." Arranged in thirty cantos this epic poem is a lyrical tale of the ancient Nordic gods. Adam Gottlob Oehlenschläger 14 November 1779 - 20 January 1850 was a Danish poet and playwright. He introduced romanticism into Danish literature. No Danish writer before 1870 has exercised so wide an influence as Oehlenschläger. His great work was to awaken in the breasts of his countrymen an enthusiasm for the poetry and religion of their ancestors and this he performed to so complete an extent that his name remains synonymous with Scandinavian romance. In 1829 he was publicly crowned with laurel as the "King of Nordic poetry" and the "Scandinavian King of Song" by Bishop Esaias Tegnér who would be his Swedish parallel in the cathedral of Lund Sweden based on a vast production of poetry theatre plays and prose. He was inspired by many including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Gottlieb Fichte and Friedrich von Schelling. Includes contents of the cantos a glossary of Norse gods a preface by W. E. Frye the letter of gratitude by Frye to the King of Denmark and a twenty-one page Notes and Elucidations section. . William Pickering hardcover

In 1814 he settled in Exeter where he remained for the next 10 years apart from a tour of Germany Poland Moldavia and Turkey in 1818 and a short sojourn in Cheltenham in 1820 made brief by the fact that he rashly and publicly questioned the medicinal value of the spa waters of that town. In 1828 he published a monograph on the use of ergot of rye as a remedy in certain states of the uterus.' Four years later he died in Dunkirk in 1832."

One hundred years passed before Tessier in France once more drew the attention of doctors to a similar practice among the midwives around Lyon.

18441437London: Smith Elder and Co 1844. First printing. Unbound tied with string. Octavo. iv 44 pages. Fine with just slight toning. Thom was a British Crown judicial officer and makes a very able argument in favor of British ownership of the Oregon Territory. He refutes the American claims advanced by Robert Greenhow in his 1840 Memoir of the Northwest Coast. <br /> <br /> This pamphlet was published in the thick of the Oregon boundary dispute. With the outbreak of war between the United States and Mexico in April 1846 the Americans could no longer afford the distraction and risk of a possible second war and the Oregon question was finally settled along the 49th Parallel by the Oregon Treaty signed in June of 1846. <br /> <br /> Ref.
