Hardcover. Zustand: Near fine. First. THE JACQUES LEVY COPY. First edition. London: A. & R. Spottiswoode for Longman, Hurst, Reese, Orme, and Brown; 1823. Octavo (8 3/8" x 5 3/8", 212mm x 136mm). [Full collation available.] With 9 lithographed plates, the first bound as a frontispiece. Bound in contemporary polished calf with a…double gilt fillet border surrounding a blind dotted toll border. On the spine, five raised bands. Author and title gilt to red calf in the second panel, with a guilloche pattern gilt to the panels. Gilt roll to the edges of the boards. Blind roll to the turn-ins. Marbled end-papers, with matching marbling to all edges of the text-block. Red silk marking ribbon. Rubbed at the peripheries. The odd bit of soiling, but altogether an unusually handsomely-bound and well-preserved example of an uncommon book. Sir William Gell (pron. "jel," 1777-1836) was educated at Emmanuel College, Cambridge and spent most of his post-graduate life abroad, first in Greece and, having been elected to the Society of Dilettanti and to the Royal Society, eventually joining the English colony at Naples. He was mocked for his passion for mapping -- Byron in English Bards and Scotch Reviewers writes "Of Dardan tours let Dilettanti tell,/ I leave topography to rapid Gell" (vs. 1033-1034) -- and in the preface (p. v) Gell himself cites the same criticism. This attention to cartography distinguishes his travels through the Mediterranean ("Morea" being the Peloponnese, with Zakynthos, Cephalonia and Ithaca to the northwest) from those of other Englishmen. Gell's careful draughtsmanship also provided the lithographs, which were T.M. Baynes and printed by Hullmandel. Jacques Levy (1905-1980) was a steady collector of books from around 1940 until his death, with particular focus on travel and the East. Born in Istanbul, he spent most of his life in New York, where the Central Park West home he shared with his wife, the artist Margot Semac, was entirely subsumed by his book collection. The present volume was lot 334 in the Sotheby's New York sale of his library, 20 April 2012. Blackmer 665; Contominas 282; Droulia 434.

Zustand: Near Fine. First edition. Mid- nineteenth-century brown polished calf rebacked to style. Octavo. xxxiii, 528 pp. Complete, with index and errata. Gilt spine with red morocco label. Marbled endpapers and edges. Ink gift inscription, dated 1846, to preliminary blank. A bright, fresh copy, clean throughout with just a bit…of foxing to first and last few leaves. A Near Fine copy of a rare abolitionist work that has only appeared at auction once in the last forty years. This is the only copy currently on the market. William Dickson (1751 - 1823) published Mitigation of Slavery at a turning point in the British abolitionist movement: in 1807, Dickson and his abolitionist allies had reached their goal of ending the British slave trade, but it was not until 1833 that the actual practice of slavery was abolished in the British Empire. Dickson, like many contemporary activists, had initially taken up the cause of ending the slave trade as a more feasible and politically viable goal than completely overhauling the British Empire's slave economy; after 1807, however, Dickson was forced to admit that the end of the trade had not improved the lives of enslaved individuals in the ways he had hoped. In Mitigation of Slavery, Dickson still did not press for immediate emancipation, but argued that swift reform must be followed by a gradual process of emancipation. To that end, Dickson compiled the writing of Joshua Steele (c. 1700-1796), a plantation owner in Barbados who had instituted reforms that Dickson hoped to implement throughout the West Indies: after inheriting a plantation from his late wife, Steele had traveled to Barbados, where he ended beatings against the people enslaved on the plantation and began paying wages and renting them land. To Steele's writing, Dickson added sixteen of his own letters addressed to Thomas Clarkson (1760 - 1846), an abolitionist leader whose major accomplishments included leading the London Committee for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, founding the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society (active 1823 - 1833), and recruiting William Wilberforce (1759 - 1833) into the movement. Dickson's letters suggest "his own ideas on how the lives and conditions of these slaves could be improved. As a prelude to their gradual emancipation, he suggested improvements in their economic situation and in the judicial system, and advocated greater efforts to educate them and to convert them to Christianity" (Oxford DNB). Dickson, as a member of the London Committee for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, was a crucial figure in the antislavery movement for decades. After living in Barbados for thirteen years, he returned to England and published his Letters on Slavery (1789), an influential work that garnered praise both from white reformers and from members of the Sons of Africa, a Black abolitionist group. The work also caught the attention of Clarkson and Wilberforce, who involved Dickson in the London Committee. Dickson began writing and researching for the committee (with Clarkson himself admitting that Dickson did much of the work for the committee's major evidentiary publications) and undertook campaigns across England and Scotland to garner support from civic leaders, churches, universities, and local abolitionist groups. Though Dickson did not live to see the end of slavery in the British Empire, his extensive coalition-building efforts and his work with the London Committee were essential in the fight to end the slave trade and in laying the groundwork for the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833. Oxford DNB. Sabin 20095. Near Fine.
