Mexico Felvideke Elet Es Kortani Tekintetben

Budapest: Franklin-Tarsulat Nyomdaja, 1877. About very good.. x,[1],220pp. Original russet cloth stamped in black and gilt, a.e.g. Light soiling and wear, corners bumped. Text toned but clean. Szenger was a Hungarian doctor serving in the Medical Corps of Maximilian I's army in Mexico. He witnessed first-hand, therefore, the French intervention in Mexico, including Maximilian's execution. The present work is his account of his travels in Mexico. The title roughly translates as "The Highland of Mexico in Respect to Physiology and Pathology," which, in addition to being an interesting and unusual travel narrative, serves as an odd sort of medical work. Rare on the market and especially uncommon in American institutions. We locate copies at Yale Medical, Vanderbilt University, and the University of Arizona, as well as several copies in Hungary. An important eyewitness account of Maximilian's brief career as the Emperor of Mexico.
