The first appearance in print of Cook's important paper on the measures he adopted to prevent scurvy on his first two voyages. The paper is included in Pringle's A Discourse upon Some Late Improvements of the Means for Preserving the Health of Mariners (1776). Even though the Scottish physician James Lind had presented in 1753 the clinical proof that fresh fruit prevented scurvy, it was still prevalent in the navy. Cook, however, did not lose a single man to scurvy during his second voyage - "a unique achievement in his time" (PMM). Pringle's Discourse includes Cook's paper and an extract from a letter from Cook to Pringle written in Plymouth Sound in July 1776. The paper was read to the Royal Society, commemorating Cook's receipt of the Copley Medal, and it later appeared in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society and in the official account of the second voyage. "Cook was a brilliant navigator and hydrographer, an excellent administrator and planner, and probably the first sea captain to realize the importance of preserving the health and well-being of his crew. He did everything possible to maintain their physical fitness and the cleanliness of both men and ships. He conquered the hitherto prevalent scurvy by cutting down the consumption of salt meat and by always having fresh vegetables and fruit on board; in particular limes (first suggested by James Lind in 1775), resulting in the terms 'lime-juicer' and 'limey' for a British ship and her sailors" (ibid.) Sir John Pringle (1707-1782) was a friend of Cook and a founder of modern military medicine, publishing the influential work Observations on the Diseases of the Army in 1752. "Like his countryman James Lind, Pringle had quickly recognized hospitals as the chief causes of sickness and death in the army. His special contributions were the first scientific account of epidemiology in the field and prevention of cross-infection" (ODNB). Provenance: from the library of the English politician Nicholas Vansittart, 1st baron Bexley (1766-1851), with his armorial bookplate on the front pastedown. Vansittart was one of the longest-serving chancellors of the exchequer in British history, the son of Henry Vansittart, Governor of Bengal from 1759 to 1764, and a correspondent of Lord Nelson. In February 1801, Vansittart led a mission on behalf of the Henry Addington administration to Copenhagen to persuade the Danes to leave Paul I of Russia's Northern League and abandon the policy of armed neutrality. "When it became clear that the Danes were not amenable to persuasion, however, Vansittart reported to Addington that nothing remained but to strike a speedy and severe blow, and this was duly administered by Nelson at the battle of Copenhagen on 2 April 1801" (ibid.). Notably, Vansittart had a complete set of Cook's voyages in his library.
