Hubbard Elbert
THE NOTEBOOK OF ELBERT HUBBARD
New York: William H. Wise & Company 1927. Elbert Hubbard was a reporter writer philosopher publisher and artist as well as a successful businessman at the end of the 19th-beginning of the 20th century. He is most often remembered today as the founder of the Roycroft artisan community in western New York. The Roycroft campus in East Aurora NY has been restored and is now a national historic site. One of Hubbard's lifelong habits was jotting notes to himself about anything he read saw or heard that picqued his interest. After he died in 1915 when the Lusitania was torpedoed by a German submarine the Roycrofters led by his son Elbert II gathered and edited many of his notes and published them in scrapbook form in two volumes. The first in 1923 was titled the "Scrapbook" and this volume the second the "Notebook" was issued in 1927. First edition no indication of which printing. About 8 1/2 x 10 3/4 inches 213 pages including index. The book includes a frontispiece b&w photo of Hubbard on the telephone and between pages 12 and 13 there is a 2-page-foldout photo showing a small selection of Hubbard's notes. The book printed and bound by the Roycrofters is on handmade paper and bound with heavy ribbon threaded through holes punched in the margin. The title on the front cover is in red letters and the triangular graphic design under the title is red and black. The binding is reinforced with an inch-wide green backstrip on both covers. The covers are worn particularly at the edges and lightly soiled and age-stained without losing any of the graphics. The text edges are slightly soiled and the previous owner's name is neatly written on the front end page. The text is lightly age-toned but o/w clean complete and unmarked. The binding has slighlty loosened over 90 years but is still tightly-knotted with no loose pages. Hubbard often described himself as an anarchist and socialist with strong beliefs in artistic and political freedom. His widely-known essay "A Message To Garcia" was the basis for two movies in 1916 shortly after his death and in 1936 as the second world war was about to start in Europe. Original Paper Wraps.

New Tribalisms: the Resurgence of Race and Ethnicity
New York New York U. S. A.: New York Univ Pr. New with no dust jacket. 1998. Softcover. For most of the 20th century social thinkers devoted their attention mainly to the issues of economic class. They generally dismissed the more primordial bonds of racial ethnic and national anachronisms that either communism or the liberal frameworks of democracy would dissolve. Today communism is nearly dead and liberalism is on the wane. At the same time older ethno-racial tribalisms along with some newly invented ones have shattered our illusions of a rationally manageable world. They find expression in the chauvanistic nationalisms multicultarist ideologies vicious civil wars "ethnic cleansing" of whole regions intensified racial and ethnic strife a resurgence of prejudice scapegoating hate groups and nativism as well as new group-based challenges to the individualistic focus of Western liberalism. Bringing together prominent historians socialists and political scientists New Tribalisms examines early conceptions of race and ethnic pluralism in the United States. The volume also confronts some of the causes implications and possible outcomes of resurgent tribalisms in the country and around the world. 373 pages including notes on the contributors and an index. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. .
