Gohier, J[ean] [B[aptiste]. DES EFFETS DES PAILLES ROUILLEES OU EXPOSE DES
RAPPORTS, recherches et experiences sur les pailles affectees de rouille,
delivrees pendant le dernier trimestre de l'an 9, aux chevaux du 20.me
regiment de Chasseurs, stationne a Arras. Lyon; Chez Reymann et Comp.:
1804.

An interesting work on the effects of mildewed straw on horses and other
animals. This is important because feeding or exposing them to this straw
(or hay) makes them allergic, an expensive and debilitating problem which
is still with us today. Gohier [1776-1819] was a veterinary surgeon with
the French cavalry and later a professor at the Veterinary School in Lyon.
His other publications included "Observations et experiences faites a
l'Ecole Imperiale Veterinaire de Lyon" (1807), "Memoires et observations
sur la chirurgie et la médecine veterinaires" (1813?), and "Tableau
synoptique des coutumes, suivies dans la plupart des ci-devant provinces
de France, a l'egard des cas redhibitoires des animaux" (1814). Scarce.
OCLC locates only 3 copies. Period orange wrappers. 5.5"x8.25", 66 pages,
sewn, untrimmed; some soil, covers with some wear, etc. A nice copy in its
original state. Presentation inscription to "A.M. Lacouille, fils" from
the author on the front pastedown. [05604] $375.00
