In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Good. Hardcover. Vol. I. only. Full leather binding with gold stamping on spine and title stamped in gold on red leather label. Boards appear scuffed with bumping to corners, but there are no significant cracks to the leather. A nice, smooth volume you could slip in your pocket. Measures about 3.5 x 5.75 inch…es. Writing under the pseudonym Don Manuel Alvarez Espriella, Letters from England is an account of a tour supposedly from a foreigner's viewpoint. It is considered to present the most accurate picture of English ways at the beginning of the 19th century. Published in two volumes, but we only have the first volume available currently. Title page dated 1808. 256 pages, and this last ends in the middle of a sentence -- it looks like one or two pages has been torn out. Lots of illegible writing in ink and pencil on the front and rear pasted endpapers, and the title page similarly has been decorated with the names of many previous owners. There is also a two-inch tear, taking out the the top right corner of the page. Pages otherwise free of foreign markings, with only a few light blossoms of foxing here and there. Binding is strong. Overall, this volume is in good condition. Please e-mail us with questions or to request photos.

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Poor. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details: hardcover, volume II only of the two-volume set. Both front and rear boards are missing with only the spine leather left. Spine area is heavily worn and cracked with considerable chipping to the edges, particularly the top. There are no end pages on either…side present with the first exposed page being the title page which is darkened and heavily worn along the edges. The top of the title page contains the signature of Phil Faulkner of Winchester VA. This is the prominent Faulkner family which has lived in that area since the mid-1700s. All of the remaining pages are still quite secure although various pages show different degrees of tanning. There is scattered foxing and spotting, even a few random pages have dampstains, but nothing is severe. A few pages also have corner folds most of which have been straightened out. The last page exposed his page 445, which is the last text body page. There is supposed to be several free end page and one that contains a small paragraph which reads D. Longworth, at the Shakespeare Gallery, New-York, Printer Publisher and Bookseller, Will execute all orders for printing &c. with which he may be honored from the southern states". This pages also missing along with all of the end pages. The few remaining copies of this title seem to also lack the boards, as this one does. This is the rarer volume 2 (only). As shown in the photos you can see that multiple pages in the front and the rear show quite a lot of bumping and tearing along the edges and corners. The bulk of the interior pages are in much better condition. Needs rebacking, page edges/corners close to the exposed ones restored, and paired up with the missing volume 1.

Contemporary calf, gilt spine with label; slight wear to edges. Samuel Rogers (1763-1855) first published 'Pleasures of Memory' in 1792, and it achieve…d popularity. It is here published with the complementary work of Robert Merry, (1755-98), who was a member of the Della Cruscan school (named after the Florentine academy founded in 1582 with the object of sifting and purifying the Italian language; its emblem was a sieve). Merry noted in conversation with Rogers that 'rememberance, more frequently occasioned uneasiness than delight, that it was rather the source of regret than satisfaction.' Samuel Rogers turned down the post of Poet Laureate (1850) following the death of Wordsworth. The present American edition contains 'some few alterations and additions' (pp95-112). Occasional light foxing, otherwise in very good condition.

"Satirical essays and poems, published in 20 periodical pamphlets (Jan. 24, 1807?Jan. 25, 1808), by Washington and William Irving and J. K. Paulding, who used such pseudonyms as Anthony Evergreen, Jeremy Cockloft the Younger, Will Wizard, and Pindar Cockloft, Esq. The work was collected in book form (1808). Modeled on the Spectator, these whimsical pieces travesty contemporary New York's tastes, society, and politics, showing the authors' aristocratic Federalism. The "letters" of the visiting Mustapha-Rub-a-Dub Keli Khan to Asem Haachem satirically describe "mobocratic" and "logocratic" Jeffersonian democracy, while other essays and poems deal in a humorous, pseudo-learned style with such various topics as fashions in women's clothing, the vulgarity of parvenus, theatrical and musical criticism, style in literature, and caricatures of celebrities. A second series of Salmagundi papers was written by Paulding alone (May 1819?Sept. 1820)."

The better part of the book is devoted to the southern campaigns of the Revolution and America's tumultuous first decades, and to biographies of prominent early Carolinians. The Streeter sale catalogue notes th…at "as a survey of life in contemporary South Carolina is of great value." Ramsay "was a passionate opponent of British policy . If medicine was Ramsay's vocation, revolutionary politics was his most ardent passion. A strong supporter of the federal Constitution in his writings and as a member of the state ratifying convention, Ramsay ran for election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1788 . It is no exaggeration to say that Ramsay defined an American national history. Among his contemporaries he stands out. for having been the first to compose histories addressed to the needs of the newly developing phenomenon of revolutionary nationalism." His History of the American Revolution and History of South Carolina "stood as prototypes for Ramsay's generation, and he became the nation's most respected historian and one of its premier literary figures" (ANB).

In den Warenkorb1st Edition. Mixed set: Volume I title page dated 1807 (BAL title page C); vol II title page A; part I is third edition, parts II and III are second edition, parts IV through XX are first editions; frontispiece in part VIII, BAL portrait 2; part X is the later state with published spelled correctly on p. 206). 1 vols. 12mo (5-5/…8 x 3-1/2 inches). The first original work by Washington Irving (after a collaboration with Howard Payne). A whimsical collection of essays poking fun at the tastes, activities, and political trends of New York, and reflecting the aristocratic, Federalist sympathies of the authors. The "Whim-Whams and Opinions" include contributions by Irving, James Kirke Paulding, and Irving's younger brother William Irving Jr. During his lifetime, Irving refused to permit Salmagundi to be reprinted in his collected works. A work of devilish bibliographic complexity, with BAL noting that Blanck's caution still holds: "anything remotely resembling finality is impossible. However, some progress toward that devoutly-to-be-wished end has been made." This set is textually complete and includes the 1807 title page of vol. I, the portrait of Launcelot Langstaff, esq., in early state, and early ownership signatures. BAL 10097 Removed. A clean set lacking the wrappers. Owner signatures of A. Heard to title pages. Very good.
