Historical Background: After the "Peace of Utrecht" in 1714, friction between Britain and Bourbon Family Compact nations of France and Spain continued intermittently until 1739. Britain was determined to open up Spanish America and the West Indies to trade, and Spain was equally determined to prevent this, claiming a right of search on the high seas which culminated in the War of Jenkins' Ear in 1739. This continued into the war of the Austrian Succession, when France, over-running the Austrian Netherlands, threatened an invasion of the England shore and Britain declared war in 1744. The struggle lasted with short intervals until 1815, and was the first of the great wars in modern history to be fought in all four quarters of the globe, in the Americas, Canada, the West Indies, West Africa, India and Europe. By 1747, France had captured Madras; and Britain, Louisberg, on Cape Breton Island, commanding the mouth of St. Lawrence. The spoils of war were fairly even, when two sea battles off the Bay of Biscay changed the whole course of the struggle. The importance of sea power was not realised until later on when France was unable to hold her conquests because of the lack of it, and Britain took a long time to realise the advantage of it, but eventually command of the seas, which Britain won after two naval engagements in 1747, established her as the chief colonial power in the world, and, with it, a vast extension of her raw materials, industry, commerce, and wealth. This fabulous book is wonderful reminder of what went on in that period of time on the high seas. Just a wonderful collection of naval prints.

First Printing of Brackenridge's Eloquent Defense of Religious Liberty for Maryland Jews [Brackenridge, Henry Marie (1786-1871)]. Niles' Weekly Register. New Series. No. 14-Vol. IV. Baltimore, May 29, 1819. [Baltimore]: Printed and Published by H. Niles, [1819].…225-240 pp. Octavo (9-3/4" x 6-1/4"; 24.76 x 15.87 cm). Disbound, leaves starting to separate at ends but secure, moderate toning, faint dampstaining to corners, light soiling to a few leaves, small tear to fore-edge of first two leaves not affecting text. $750. * Includes the first printing of Henry Brackenridge's speech in favor of Maryland's act "to extend to the sect of people professing the Jewish religion the same rights and privileges enjoyed by Christians," better known as the "Jew Bill." Like many other states, Maryland's constitution required public officials to profess "a belief in the Christian religion," barring Jews from holding any public office, including military service and the legal profession. The struggle to change the law was long and bitter. Petitions to the legislature were submitted by Maryland Jews beginning in 1797, but the bill was repeatedly defeated on the floor. In 1818, the bill was reintroduced and Brackenridge gave an extensive, passionate speech in its favor. Referring to the exclusion of Jews from office as "degrading" and "odious," he argued that the law violated the federal constitution and the founding principles of the nation, citing, among other sources, James Madison and Tucker's Blackstone. Despite his efforts, the bill was defeated again and would not pass until 1826. The speech was issued in pamphlet form along with the full text of the bill and another speech from Thomas Kennedy in November 1819, with the text of Brackenridge's speech taken from this issue of the Weekly Register (Cohen). Though there is no official record of the debates, a collection of speeches on the bill was published by Brackenridge in 1829. See Cohen, Bibliography of Early American Law 3516. Not in Rosenbach or Singerman. Eitches, "Maryland's Jew Bill," American Jewish Historical Quarterly 60.3 (1971): 258-279. Baltimore: Printed and Published by H. Niles, 1819 (illustrator).
