Just interjecting:

Continued Fractions are discussed at some length in Hall and Knight's
"Higher Algebra."  The text (and presumably the topic) are 1800's 1st
publication.  The latest publication I have is 1932, but there were
likely later ones.

Hope that this may be of some assistance.

Regards,
David.
