Seller's Description:
Good wear top spine. Text is light and tight but with occasional light pencil marginalia. Top 1/4" of spine has worn away. A few dings to rear cloth, too. Notes appear to be in the hand to J. W. Williams: Book V in set includes a note: "With many aplogies for a long delay, J. W. Williams." To my eye...writing on note matches writing in volume. A John Whitridge Williams taught obstretrics and was the Dean of Medicine at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine [And wrote the influential and still published textbook Williams Obstetrics] when the book was published. Book was purchased, however, at the Schoenhof Booksphop on Tremont Street in Boston [Bookstore label on books pastedown. ] So perhaps this book belonged to J. W. Williams of Baltimore...but if so...why was it purchased through a Boston bookstore and why the note in the volume which at least on its face indicates that the book was a long delayed gift? ?
