CONDITION DESCRIPTION: Light rubbing to edges, corners and spine ends; spine lightly rubbed. Interior is clean and tight. With clear mylar wrapper. CONTENT DESCRIPTION: A lawyer before the war, Arrowsmith was mustered in as Captain and commander of Company D, 26th New York Volunteer Infantry on May 21, 1861, and served with his unit until August 1862, when he was transferred to the United States Army Adjutant General department. He served as an Assistant Adjutant General until November 1862, when he resigned from that department to accept a commission of Lieutenant Colonel of the 157th New York Volunteer Infantry. On the eve of the Battle of Gettysburg he was taken sick, but opted to stay with his men, despite the objections of his regimental surgeon. On the first day of the battle (July 1, 1863) the 157th New York was defending the XI Corps line north of the town when Lieutenant Colonel Arrowsmith was shot in the forehead. Taken unconscious to a field hospital, he died a few hours later. REFERENCES: Dornbusch I: NY-567.

Together five parts bound in two volumes, 4to, pp. [iii]-xv, [i], 396; [iv], '42' (mistake for 423), [1] blank; [ii], 4, [ii], 84, [8] index; 4; iv, 56; vii, [1] errata; contemporary calf, gilt spines with morocco labels (somewhat rubbed, but sound). First editions, second issue of the principal work. A fine copy of a curious translation of Ariosto, complete with additional matter. Huggins (1696-1761) first published his version of Orlando Furioso in 1755, without his name attached but with a dedication to George II signed by his friend Temple Henry Croker: it was reissued two years later, in the present form. It is not at all clear who were the actual translators of the poem: Huggins seems to have allowed Croker to appear as editor, but felt that he himself was by far the most important contributor (hence the change of title page in 1757). However, other translators were clearly involved, since each canto is signed with one or other of six initials (H and C presumably stand for the two already identified, but there are also W, M, S and R). The same year as the reissue, Huggins published his Annotations on the poem, apparently intended to accompany the two-volume translation but they seem to be extremely rare (with seven copies located by ESTC). The two-leaf additional poem bound at the end in this volume seems properly to be part of the Annotations, and is thus treated by ESTC. Two years later Huggins published Part of Orlando Furioso, which prints new versions of part or all of eight cantos apparently intended as a rebuke to Croker, whose part he felt was not well enough done and whom he allowed to become involved 'through most earnest solicitations'. These translations, he asserts, were done without reference to the former translation and it seems that he wished to criticise Croker by showing that he was able to produce varying versions of the great poem at will. This too is very rare, for ESTC records only five copies: two at Oxford, and Trinity Dublin, Harvard and Library Company. Further to this, there is a Johnsonian subtext to the book. Huggins's translation is said to have been helped by contributions from Johnson's friend Giuseppe Baretti, but Huggins had quarrelled with Baretti in April 1755 (over a gold watch, not Ariosto), and Johnson was persuaded to write placatory letters to Huggins to try to patch up the row. Subsequently, Thomas Warton asserted that Huggins 'wanted to get an approbation of his translation from Johnson; but Johnson would not'. (Many years later, Johnson did assist John Hoole with his translation of the same poem, and subscribed to the book.) Huggins further quarrelled with the Johnson circle when Warton's Observations on the Faerie Queene disparaged his Ariosto, and he replied with a detailed rebuttal entitled The Observer Observ'd (1756). This pamphlet is frequently cited with approval in his Annotations, once at least recommended as a 'study'd book'. Johnson did not take sides, remarking that 'Huggins has ball without powder, and Warton powder without ball' (Boswell, ed. Hill-Powell, IV 473-6); his masterly letters written to pacify Huggins are printed by Redford (Hyde edition II 83-6). Provenance. Bookplate in each volume of Henry Edward Bunbury (1778-1860), army officer and the son of the artist H.W. Bunbury: he is said to have accumulated a fine library and art collection. Later owned by B.E.C. Davis, with his inscription dated 1916: Bernard Davis was the author of a book on Edmund Spenser (Cambridge, 1933), and his light pencil notes are found in many places in the volumes.

a little light browning, occasional slight finger-soiling or spotting, textblock loose, pp. 15, [1, advertisements], 32mo, original stamped wrappers (lower with small map showing the location of John G. Cook, Lewiston apothecary), couple of small marginal tears from fore-edge, traces of ancient water stain. A remarkably well-preserved copy of this apparently unrecorded Maine imprint of a very successful short pamphlet on cholera treatment. In the same year, it was also published in New York, Boston, Washington, Dayton and (in Arabic) Beirut. Its author Rev. Cyrus Hamlin (1811-1900), an American educator and Congregational missionary was born and raised in Maine. He wrote this pamphlet in light of his direct experience of cholera in Turkey, under the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. During the Crimean War, he collaborate with Florence Nightingale. The pamphlet sought to prepare Americans for a potential cholera pandemic 'which has just left us after committing fearful ravages' and 'is making its way into Europe, and will probably cross the Atlantic before another summer has passed'. It provides practical advice on facing a sudden arrival of cholera, its causes (e.g., improper diet), symptoms, worsening, treatments (e.g., mustard poultices), and four case studies all in a clear language, without medical jargon. The pamphlet was printed at the Journal Office in Lewiston, probably at the expense of the local apothecary, John G. Cook. He added a final advertisement of his chlorate dentifrice and had a small map of the location of his shop printed on the lower wrapper. We have not traced any copies of this Maine edition in OCLC or AAS. Atwater (vol.3).
