Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIRST SEPARATE EDITION. 8 vo. Modern boards with paper label on cover. 12 pp. About a very good copy. Professor of therapeutics at Yale, Dr. Henry Bronson (1804-93) early in his career ".was commissioned to investigate in Canada the natural history of Asiatic cholera and its possible prevention. He reported that there existed no evidence of the power of chlorine, as used, over the principle of contagion or infection, while faith in disinfectants actually caused neglect of cleanliness." (Kelly & Burrage, p.150). Bound with: 'Cholera morbus', House of Representatives, Rep. No. 226, January 20, 1832, 35 pp.
