William Combe and John Hunter's Essay on the Teeth.
Hamilton, Harlan Ware. (Professor of English, Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio).
Quantity: 1
Book Description: 9 3/4 x 6 3/4"; offprint that reprints pp. (169)-178 from the Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences (first published in New York by H. Schuman [1946] & later by Yale University). Printed blue wrappers, stapled. Very slight edge wear to wrappers, else NF. Presentatation copy, with this ink inscription at top right of front paper cover: "Dean Wittke from Harlan". (Carl F. Wittke; 1892-1971, was dean of the Graduate School at WRU & a distinguished historian & author). Did William Combe "Dr. Syntax" ghost write John Hunter's "A practical treatise on the diseases of the teeth [1778] ? You decide, after rerading Hamilton's article which is as scholarly in its way as is "The Road to Xanadu". Hamilton later published a biography of Combe: "Doctor Syntax; a silhouette of William Combe, Esq. (1742-1823). Kent State University Press, 1969." This offprint is a scarce item, especially as a presentation copy. Seller Inventory # ABE-62312653
