Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Formosa Fraud', known for most his life as George Psalmanazar, prepared his memoirs for publication after his death in 1764, but even then he did not directly admit the fraud, and never revealed what his real name was. The Memoirs of \* \* \* \* - that is, the memoirs of George Psalmanzar - are a crucial part of the story of the deception, and provide a highly entertaining account of his youth in France, and how his pretense of being a Formosan allowed him to escape rural poverty and live most of his life in the world's great city of the time - London. This book is a companion to The Formosa Fraud, by Graham Earnshaw, which details the stupendous fraud perpetrated by Psalmanazar. He claimed he was born on the island of Formosa (Taiwan) and made up an entire fantasy for the island with a fake history, a fake language and long list of outrageous claims that made his book, A Description of Formosa, which was a publishing sensation in London in 1704. Even the Bishop of London swallowed Psalmanazar's story and invited him to teach his (fake) Formosan language at Oxford University. Memoirs of XXX provides the background to the story of one of the great frauds in literary history.

Rare Reach Official American League Baseball signed by a legendary group of baseball legends and Hall of Famers. Signed by Babe Ruth on the sweetspot, setting the tone for one of the most remarkable gatherings of baseball legends captured on a single ball.

Additionally signed by Connie Mack, Lefty Grove, and George Earnshaw. Crowning the collection is the autograph of Hank Aaron, the man who ultimately eclipsed Ruthâs career home run record, bridging two eras of baseball greatness. In fine condition.

Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Hank Aaron, Jimmie Foxx, Al Simmons, Connie Mack, Lefty Grove, and George Earnshaw collectively embody the pantheon of Major League Baseball legends whose careers span the sportâs formative decades and its evolution into a national institution. Each figure holds a distinct place in the gameâs legacy: Ruth and Gehrig as the iconic heart of the New York Yankeesâ dominance in the 1920s and 1930s; Aaron as the embodiment of consistent excellence and the breaking of Babe Ruthâs home run record; Foxx and Simmons as prolific sluggers of the Philadelphia Athleticsâ golden years; Mack as the longest-serving and most storied manager in baseball history; and Grove and Earnshaw as dominant pitchers who shaped the Athleticsâ championship success. Together, these figures represent a cross-generational legacy that defines baseballâs golden age and its enduring mythos.

In near fine condition with mail folds and light bumping. The piece measures 5 inches by 7.25 inches. Rare and desirable. The 1931 Philadelphia Athletics, managed by Connie Mack, were a dominant force in American League baseball, finishing the season with 107 wins and a roster that included stars such as Lefty Grove and Jimmie Foxx. Despite their regular-season success and status as defending champions, the Athletics were defeated in a tightly contested seven-game World Series by the St. Louis Cardinals. The series showcased the strategic acumen of opposing manager Gabby Street and the emergence of Pepper Martin as a postseason star. The loss marked the end of the Athleticsâ brief dynasty and signaled a shift in baseballâs balance of power during the early 1930s.
