History of Electricity: "He also made the most extensive and accurate observations known upon the development of electricity in Minerals by fiction..." Some small wormholes in the margin of the first pages incl. the titlep. and some light waterstaining at the bottom, otherwise a good copy.
1391. Haüy, R.-J. Traité des caractères physiques des Pierres précieuses, pour servir à leur détermination lorsqu'elles ont été taillées. Paris, Courcier, 1817. XVI, XXII: introduction and 253p., 3 folded engravings. Cont. h.calf. Dfl. 2.600,= = Ward and Carozzi, 1026.

Dfl. 6.500,= = Ward and Carozzi, 1027. Rare and highly enlarged (and corrected) text and plates! The first edition (1801) only had 86 plates. From the introduction: "Les voyages entrepris depuis la publication de mon Tableau comparatif nous ont fait connaître de nouvelles espèces que j'ai déterminées successivement et introduites dans ma méthode. D'une autre part, le nombre des variétés de formes cristallines relatives aux différentes espèces, qui était de 638 dans la première édition, se trouve porté dans celle-ci à 1040". Haüy (1743-1822) was the founder of the science of Crystallography and this is his Magnus Opus. Thus we think that this second edition is by far superior to the also rare first edition as it is almost an entirely new work! See DSB vol.6 p.178-182. A nice uncut copy with some very light foxing in the text, the plates are fine and depict mostly crystalls.

Dfl. 1.500,= = Not in Ward and Carozzi, nor Cat. of British Museum (Nat. Hist.) and we never had it too... must be rare. Although the titlepage indicates 23 plates by Ambroise Tardieu it has only 12 which is correct! This curious text-book for french youth has been written in a dialogue form between Mme de Beaumont, Gustave and Caroline and treats all kinds of minerals in 16 chapters. This Mme de Beaumont may well be the wife of the famous Elie de Beaumont, the author of the Notice sur les systèmes de montagne (1852) which we urgently need! We have also his famous Traité de Minéralogie in the second edition and the Journal des Mines, in which he published a lot, being vols. 1-38 with 2 indexes (1794-1815): all publ. at Dfl. 12.500, =.

Not in the Cat. British Museum (Nat. Hist.), nor Zittel, nor Ward and Carozzi. There is also a german translation published in Weimar 1839/40 with 5 text vols. and one atlas incl. only 41 plates instead of 65! All plates foxed in the margins and 3 plates with repairs in the margins. The atlas in the first edition from 1819 and the text in the second edition by H. le Cocq.

It was written while still a student at the universities of Frankfurt-an-der-Oder and Göttingen where he had for teachers Gottlob Heyne and Blumenbach. During vacations, Humboldt made several geological excursions to the Harz Mountains and the Rhine and the present book is the result of his observations. In it, Humboldt attacked the theories of volcanism but without unequivocally embracing those of neptunism. Humboldt's investigations of volcanoes and earthquakes were his most important contributions to geology, a life-long interest. Fine copy!
1398. Humboldt, A. von Ueber die unterirdischen Gasarten und die Mittel ihren Nachtheil zu vermindern. Ein Beytrag zur Physik der praktischen Bergbaukunde. Braunschweig, Vieweg, 1799. Small 8vo. VIII, 346p., 3 folded engravings. Cont. boards (spine worn). Dfl. 3.000,= = Rare not in Ward and Carozzi! Poggendorff I, 1157. Erased library stamp on verso of title.

He, Wilhelm, informs: "Zwei Jahre sind jetzt verflossen, seitdem der Apparat der Rettungslampe zu Stande gekommen, versendet und in mehreren Zeitschriften beschrieben worden ist. Bei der grossen Aufmerksamkeit, die man dieser Erfindung geschenkt hat, wurde eine Beschreibung von dem Erfinder selbst gewünscht." The 3 plates depict the instruments for mines.
1399. Humboldt, A. von Essai geognostique sur le gisement des roches dans les deux hemispheres. Paris, Levrault, 1823. VIII, 379p. Orig. wrs. with new spine. - uncut.

La France était, pour la minéralogie, et surtout pour la métallurgie, bien en arrière de plusieurs autres pays de l'Europe. Il rendit donc un véritable service à sa patrie, en la mettant à portée de mieux connaître deux sciences de plus grand intérêt pour son industrie" (michaud). All titlepages have library stamps and most plates on verso too. Some pages waterstained at bottom and some few plates too but rather inoffensive. One volume gilt stamped from the Ecole d'Artillerie d'Auxonne.
