The organization of a scheme of study adapted to American wants is the educational problem, immediately before us, and the present volume, it is hoped, will contribute valuable suggestions toward its solution." - Preface.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. A near-complete set of 205 bound volumes of monthly issues published between May 1872 to December 1976 (vols. 1-209), lacking only five volumes, and with all monthly issues dating after November 1900 with their printed wrappers bound in. All are bound in cloth or cloth over boards. Illustrated with… engraved frontispiece plates; plates and maps (some folded); and in-text wood-engravings, gravure and halftone photographs, diagrams, tables, etc. Founded in 1872 by the chemist and polymath Edward L. Youmans, *The Popular Science Monthly* was the leading American journal established to disseminate scientific knowledge to the educated layman. Youmans was associated with many of the world's leading liberal and progressive thinkers, ranging from Walt Whitman to Herbert Spencer, and his journal became an outlet for the writings and ideas of Spencer and other Continental scientists like Thomas Henry Huxley and Louis Pasteur, and for the rising generation of American philosophers like Charles Sanders Peirce, John Dewey, and William James, and psychologist James McKeen Cattell, who took over as editor in 1900. Among the many important first appearances are Peirce's series of eight papers published in 1877-78 under the series title: *Illustrations of the Logic of Science*; a series of two lectures by William James: *A Defense of Pragmatism* (published in March and April, 1907); and three papers by John Dewey: "Health and Sex in Higher Education" (March 1886), "The Chaos in Moral Training" (August 1894), and "Darwin's Influence upon Philosophy" (July 1909). Also notable are several articles on women's issues, of which we cite but three browsed at random: "Woman and Political Power" by Luke Owen Pike (May 1872), Grant Allen's "Plain Words on the Woman Question" (December 1889); and "Woman's Struggle for Liberty in Germany" by Mary Mills Patrick (January 1900). Among the many articles published after the magazine changed its format in 1915, we cite Hugh Fullerton's "Why Babe Ruth is the Greatest Home Run Hitter" (October 1921) as the best representative example of the type of article this award-winning magazine has published throughout the 20th Century and up through the present day. An ex-library set with intermittent markings that varied over time, including: ownership stamps (small ink and/or embossed stamps in the early volumes, some perforated stamps in the middle volumes, and ink stamps in the later volumes), and bookplates. Modest overall soiling to the cloth bindings, some of the early printed wraps are toned and/or detached (still present), a few volumes with small repairs to the endpapers, most volumes are very good or better. A very scarce near-complete set.

For information on the recipient William Frederick Cleveland, see his obituary, BMJ, 3 December 1898. 2pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper adhering to the reverse of the blank second leaf. Folded twice. He begins by explaining that he has been that day asked 'to see a patient of your wit…h a large abdominal tumour (named Conlon, I think) living somewhere near you I said I had better see her with you & she asked me to arrange with you to see her on Thursday afternoon'. He suggests a time for this appointment, stating that he will call on Cleveland at home. If this is not convenient he 'could say 4 but please let me know by first post as I have another consultation in the City with Mr. Elwyn which I must arrange to agree with yours'. The letter concludes: 'If you should happen to be near the Samaritan [Hospital] to-morrow afternoon, & could look in at 4 o'Clock, you would see me do ovariotomy'. From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

Two letters providing an insight into the relationship between artist and patron in nineteenth-century England. See the the Duke's entry, and Eastlake's, in the Oxford DNB, as well as James Lees-Milne's biography 'The Bachelor Duke' (1991). With regard to the subject of the letters (now at Chatsworth), Eastlake's obituary in the… Illustrated London News states: 'A more important effort was a large composition, commissioned by the Duke of Devonshire, the subject of which was derived from Plutarch's story of the Spartan Isadas appearing in a battle armed but undraped, and being in consequence taken for a god; the exhibition of which picture, in 1827, procured the artist's election an Associate of the Academy.' Both items have strips of minor discoloration, otherwise they are in good condition, lightly aged and with postage folds. Both signed 'Devonshire.' Eastlake is not named as the recipient of the first letter, but given the context his identity is apparent. ONE: 7 October 1827; Chatsworth. 2pp, 12mo. On first leaf of bifolium. The letter suggests that Eastlake has been paid twice. Begins: 'Dear Sir / I am surprized & embarrassed by the letter I have today received from you, and I can only account for my bankers conduct by my having employed a secretary at the very busy time of last spring, who may have sent another order for 250£, I having forgot having done so myself. / I have written to Messieurs Snow for an explanation of this & they will give information to Messieurs Harman. / Sir Thomas Lawrence who is here is going to repair a slight injury done to the picture on the journey. I have hung it in a very good though temporary place, & I admire it more every day'. In 1837 the author of 'Modern Chatsworth; or, The Palace of the Peak' reported that the painting had recently been removed from the state drawing room at Chatsworth to the banqueting hall. TWO: 25 July 1852; Brighton. 1p, 4to. Written (for reasons explained in the text) in a very shaky hand. Eastlake would clearly like to retouch his painting, but the Duke is not inclined to let him. Reads: 'Dear Sir Charles / I should be willing to comply with a request of yours, but I do not like to remove Isadas [sic] from the position where he is seen and admired by thousands every year. But a stronger objection is that I never could consent to having the picture retouched or altered. It is valued by me, and accompanied by too many recollections & associations to permit that. Wishing to give you a [sic] immediate answer, I have used my paralytic left hand. / most sincerely yrs / Devonshire.'.
