The illustrated practical mesmerist : curative and scientific / by William Davey.
A mid-nineteenth-century London manual on mesmerism by William Davey, published around 1862 by Job Caudwell for a general lay readership interested in curative and scientific claims. Its pictures are plain black-and-white wood engravings of seated patients, a practitioner's hand gesturing toward a sitter's face, and labelled scenes like 'Mesmerizing a Recumbent' and 'Gout', giving a designer period woodcut vignettes with strong hand gestures and simple framing borders.
