Correspondents include a number of Reverends inc. foreign. Subjects: 1850 They tell author "Lecture" that his work will be in an edition of 3000 and that he has a large credit balance with them anticipating how much profit he will make on "each succeeding thousand" £25 the price. "It is a very handsome volume and in fact does the publishers no discredit"; a meeting of a Mr Turner's creditors; price levels and the need to reduce to sell; negotiations; creditors in "Mr Cork's affair"; their "claim against the Rev. A.J. Hudson"; tardy acceptance of an order South African customer; acknowledgment of payment; prices of bibles influenced by the bindings - he lists examples including "Royal Folio Bible Dble pica Type with Apoc at 5gns"; arrangement of dispatch of periodicals reporting the "North American as out of print" the Galignani to be sent directly from Paris; discussion of "gratuitous help" in the formation of a correspondent's library; they offer to reduce a debt greatly to help a customer who has experienced a serious loss; corresondent not identified but same as first copy letter above they cannot accurately state printing costs without the manuscript but give a detailed estimate: "Supposing the work to be similar to yr second series of Lectures we should say in round underlined figures the cost of 1000 copies wd be about £100 - leaving £10 or £11 to cover the expense of correction & advertising". He suggests that the whole edition would make £160 at 5/- "without deduction for copies for Review &c" but warns him that he should not look for more than £40 profit. He outlines another scenario 1500 copies expenses of distribution and concludes with their wish to purchase the copyright and "taking the risk of an edition" and a postscript giving terms 10% for them after trade price considered - "25 or 24 @ 3/7"; they sent a catalogue to Dr Taylor Madras and give terms - order with remittance discount of 25% over £10 welcoming lsarge export orders for anything but law books; they ask David D. Scott" to return the MS. "Tetraphonia by Da Costa" with as much of the translation which has ben completed; comment on the Preface to the MS. "God in Disease to James F. Duncan; published by Nisbet in 1851 saying that the subject is not so much "in their department" to offer more favourable terms and want to stick with "half risk and half profit" with the proviso on future editions that they could change the terms. They recommend it be printed "any where but in Dublin" Duncan's home city; 1859 To Patrick Beaton re. "Creole and Coolies; or Five Years in Mauritius" pub. 1859; reprinted 1971 they make points in response to complaints firstly that they did not print more than 500 copies but "to place the matter beyond all controversy" they have written to the printer. Secondly a second edition would be expensive for various reasons inc. engraving the vignette charging for corrections. Thirdly they discuss an error with a section of his MS.apologetically and ask to be informed of any other changes; also to Patrick Beaton; they are sending payment for the "retranslation of thirty seven pages of MSS of a German Work". One copy letter is signed "James Batton" indicating the writer of all. (1859), 1850, 1859, mainly 1850, 1859 letters headed 21 Berners Street as is one from 1850 unknown‎

‎[MEXICAN REVOLUTION - GUERRA DE LA FRONTERA] Various Photographers and Publishers‎

‎Archive of Eighty-two Photographic Images of the Mexican-American Border Wars in Texas California and Mexico 1908-1915‎

‎Various publishers & dates. Extensive photographic archive documenting events on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico Border during the Mexican Revolution focused primarily on the Border Wars in Texas and the Veracruz Incident of 1914 comprised entirely of contemporary images all but a few of which are original vintage prints. The collection includes: <br /> <br /> • Sixty-one commercially-produced real-photo postcards ca. 14cm x 9cm or the reverse; <br /> • Six commercially-printed postcards using non-photographic processes same dimensions;<br /> • Three carte-de-visite portraits ca 9cm x 6cm mounted to cards;<br /> • Eight small-format photographs ranging from 14cm x 8cm to 11cm x 16cm of which three appear to be commercial images; <br /> • Three 8x10 20cm x 25cm photographic prints printed at some later date from original plates but apparently not contemporary; <br /> • One vintage 4x6 10cm x 16cm photograph mounted on board. <br /> <br /> All but a dozen or so images are captioned in the negative and most are additionally captioned in pencil in a later hand on verso. Approximately half the images include no photo credit; of those that do we have identified the following photographers: W.H. Horne D.W. Hoffman Walter P. Hadsell Van Zile & Chalk and L.O. She. <br /> <br /> Condition is generally Very Good. Two of the photo postcards are damaged with abrasions to significant portions of image area; the remainder show various degrees of edge wear aging and creasing but by and large image quality remains excellent. None of the postcards are postally used though a few include brief contemporary notes on verso. The refusal of Mexican President Porfirio Dîaz to cede power to his rival Francisco Madero in the elections of 1910 resulted in a violent large-scale revolt by campesinos and leftists setting off the thirty-year long Mexican Revolution. American involvement in the conflict began in 1911 when President William H. Taft under the guise of heightening border security moved to back Díaz against the rebels. The resulting mobilization - Taft sent more than 20000 American troops nearly a quarter of all American forces to the Mexican border with especially heavy concentrations in Texas and New Mexico - was to that date the largest mobilization of American military forces in peacetime. At the same time many Americans whose sympathies were not aligned with the Díaz dictatorship including anarchists wobblies Native Americans and more than a few soldiers of fortune went south to fight on the side of the rebels. The resulting border conflict which took place over nearly a decade occasionally pitting American insurrectos against American Federal troops resulted in thousands of Mexican and hundreds of American deaths. <br /> <br /> The Border Wars reached their climax around the period 1912-1914 which happened to coincide with a near-hysterical vogue for postcards among the American public. The result is that the Mexican Revolution is perhaps the first major armed conflict to have been extensively photo-documented in real time and certainly the first to have had a significant mass audience for that documentation. At least three hundred commercial photographers have been identified in association with the Mexican Revolution and they produced tens of thousands of images ranging from the relatively innocuous e.g. peaceful street and harbor scenes in Veracruz to the horrific lynchings and sidewalk cremations. <br /> <br /> This entire range of content is represented in the current collection along with portraits of most of the key players on the Mexican side including El Presidente Porfirio Díaz; his primary rival and successor Francisco Madero; Madero's successor by coup Victoriano Huerta; and various military figures including General Juan Navarro Felipe Angeles Ramírez and numerous others. Many of these semi-professional images though produced with commercial intent "professional" remains a guarded term in the context of what was essentially battlefield exploitation photography are valuable for their almost off-hand depictions of violent day-to-day life on the contested border including the casual destruction and acceptance of death from both sides that seemed to define this conflict. Of particular note are numerous of photographs of African-American troops the so-called "Buffalo Soldiers" as well as at least one image depicting Native American soldiers in uniform. Locales represented include Camp Grossmont in California; El Paso and Laredo in Texas and their cross-border sister cities Juarez and Nuevo Laredo; Veracruz site of the American incursion of 1914 known as the "Veracruz Incident"; and various unidentified encampments and battle sites in both Texas and Mexico. <br /> <br /> A wide-ranging and compelling photographic collection documenting not only a key period in U.S. military diplomacy - one which for better or worse set the tone for American-Mexican relations for the succeeding century - but also a tangible manifestation of the first widespread public incarnation in America of the picture-postcard as a vehicle for both propaganda and photojournalism. unknown‎
