Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. ON HORSEBACK THROUGH NIGERIA BY J.D. FALCONER 1911 32 B&W PHOTOS. I have had this book for some years and was hesitant about listing it because there is a good deal of foxing inside. However, when I realized that it was a scarce book (very few found online) and that all the photos were present and accounted for (I checked), I decided to go ahead. Please find: On Horseback Through Nigeria or Life and Travels in the Central Sudan by J.D Falconer. This medium-sized hard cover book (6 ¼ x 9 inches, 312 pages plus a fold-out map of the Author s travels) was published by Charles Scribner s Sons of New York dated 1911, and the First Edition. The book is bound in maroon cloth with gilt titles and decorations on cover and spine. The top edge is gilt. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The front and rear boards are clean and bright but the spine is faded. Inside the book is unmarked and as mentioned, all the photos are present. I was pleased to find that although the foxing is quite common and unsightly, it is concentrated towards the front although not really absent towards the rear of the book. The foxing does not affect the many plates. Both hinges are intact and the binding is tight, sound and square. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Edition of a wealthy merchant's accounts sheds fascinating insights into life at the time.The household account book of John Clerk of Penicuik, a Montrose-born merchant who honed his skills in Paris and brought home to Scotland a small fortune which he used to purchase the barony of Penicuik in 1654, provides an opportunity to explore the multifaceted life of a seventeenth-century merchant, moneylender, and improving landlord. This volume presents for the first time a full scholarly edition of the accounts. A prodigious bookkeeper, Clerk maintained incredibly detailed, and personally annotated, accounts which support the contemporary assessment that held him to be 'a man of great sense and great application to busines''. Uniquely, Clerk's tendency to add emotive statements or direct commentary to his detailed accounting of household expenditures sets these accounts apart from similar account books from this period. As this volume also shows, they reveal a businessman that did not suffer fools gladly and a devoted and loving husband and father who worked tirelessly to secure a future for his children, the estate, and his family name. Showcasing the household's expenditures, Clerk's accounts list a vast array of consumables and durables, his family's material support and the cost of educating his children, as well as disbursements to labourers, domestic servants, doctors, and various factors operating on behalf of Clerk and his family. Collectively, the material found in these records can contribute to broader inquiries into domestic consumption, the improvement of landed estates, gendered spending patterns, the employment of labour, household priorities, material culture, and identities and consumer behaviour in the last half of the seventeenth century.This edition makes accessible a full edition of the accounts themselves, as well an extensive historical and historiographical introduction placing the accounts in their wider context and helping the reader to use and interpret the accounts. It also benefits from a full glossary of terminology used by Clerk. Covering the period from 1663 to Clerk's death in 1674, this volume presents the reader with an opportunity to pull back the curtains, open the cupboards, peer into the closets, and gaze onto the fields of a seventeenth-century laird's estate.…
