Three square 16mo volumes (16cm x 13cm). Modern maroon buckram with gilt titling; variously paginated. Fine. Comprises the entirety of Vols I (April-Dec 1909, six issues); II (Jan-Dec 1910, eight issues); III (Jan-Dec 1911, eight issues). Individual issues vary from ca. 40 to ca 120pp; issued irregularly. This run apparently complete; bound without cover wraps; Fine. Official organ of the Congregational Brotherhood of America, founded in 1907 with the mission of restoring and preserving a strong masculine presence within the church. The Brotherhood Movement, which arose across multiple Protestant denominations in the early years of the Twentieth Century, was described by one contemporary observer as "a modern vehicle for the expression of virile Christianity and for emphasizing the distinctly masculine appeal of religion" (McFarland (ed), Encyclopedia of Sunday Schools and Religious Education. NY: 1915). This periodical evidently uncommon; OCLC notes a single location (Yale, a single issue); not seen in commerce.

Paris, Crochard et Comp., 1837. Orig. printed wrappers. No backstrip. In: "Annales de Chimie et de Physique, Par MM. Gay-Lussac et Arago.", tome 64, Cahier 2 (Fevrier 1837). Pp. 113-224. (Entire issue offered with printed wrappers.). Wöhler a. Liebig's papers: pp. 185-209 a. pp. 209-217. First appearance of this classic paper in organic chemistry in which Wöhler and Liebig showed how Amygdalin could be decomposed by a vegetable emulsion, the first example of a glycoside. The papers were issued at the same time in "Annalen der Physik und Chemie"."The conclusions which you have drawn from the investigation of bitter-almond oil," wrote Berzelius to Liebig and Wöhler, "are certainly the most importent which have so far been reached in the domain of vegetable chemistry, and give promise of shedding an unexpected light over this part of the science.The facts which you have set forth inspire such reflections that they may be regarded as the dawn of a new day in vegetable chemistry."(Berzelius-Wöhler Briefwechsel)."During the years that Liebig was preoccupied with the ether theory and with organic acids, he also carried out two importent investigations with Wöhler. In october 1836 Wöhler wrote that he had discovered a way to transform amygdalin to oil of bitter almonds and hydrocyanid acis, by distilling it with manganese and sulfuric acid, and he invited Liebig to join in pursuing the topic. Two days later he made a more remarkable discovery. It had occurred to him that perhaps thetransformation of amygdalin could be effected by the albumin in the almonds, in a manner similar to the action of yeast in sugar.Wöhler suspected that the decomposition was an example of what Berzelius had recently defined as catalysis. Liebig and Wöhler then divided up the detailed examination of the properties and composition of amygdalin. They precipitated from the emulsion of almonds a substance which when dissolved retain its action. They named the active substance "emulsion". Its effectiveness in very small quantities confirmed that it acted like yeast."(DSB VIII, p. 342).

(Paris, Fortin, Masson et Cie, 1840). 8vo. Without wrappers. Extracted from 'Annales de Chimie et de Physique', 2e Series, tome 73. Pp. 73-103 (incl. Note de Liebig pp. 100-103) and pp. 113-166. Some scattered brownspots. This paper, which was published at the same year in "Comptes Rendues" (3 Fevrier), is the most importent on the theory of structural types and the nomenclature of organic compounds, refuting the electrochemical theory of Berzelius. "The development of this idea (type organique) into what is sometimes called the "Older Type Theory", as distinguished from Gerhardt's Type heory, is contained in Dumas' importent memoir on the substitution and the theory of types, presented on 3 febriary 1840."(Partington IV, p. 365). In the second paper Stas and Dumas record the first use of 'potash-lime', the precursor of soda-lime, an invaluable reagent in organic chemistry."Jean Baptiste Dumas advances a theory that the chemical properties of an organic compound are determined by its structure and not, as seems to be the case with inorganic compounds, by its electrical properties. he illustrates the concept with the example that the basic qualitative properties of acetic acid are retained even after replacing three fourths of the hydrogen by chlorine. As a consequence, he calls for a revision of chemical nomenclature for organic compounds, basing terms on common features, not on elemental composition."(Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1840 C).
