Trollope, Anthony (1815-1882).
NORTH AMERICA. Two Volumes In One.
Two Volumes In One: pp. 335; 334. Mildly XLib. XLib bookplate of the Library of the Page Literary Society on front paste down. 8vo. 190 mm. Original full embossed cloth binding, faded. Loss at head of spine. XLib call number on spine. Text is clean, but should be resewn. 'Author's Edition'. Hardbound. Good. The Trollope family made a little industry writing about visits to America, and comments on the land and its peoples. Anthony's mother, Frances, visited in the 1820's, and published a book about the trip in 1832. Anthony visited four times. His substantial trip in 1861 was the basis for this 1862 best seller. Anthony's comments on political matters during this contentious Civil War time were insightful and frank. Neither he nor his mother were beloved in the U.S. for many years. PAIMP 23

Trollope, Mrs. Francis (1780-1863).
DOMESTIC MANNERS OF THE AMERICANS.
pp. 325 + Eight full page lithographed satirical plates by August Hervieu, who accompanied Mrs. Trollope on her American tour. Foxed. Worn contemporary full cloth binding. "Landing at New Orleans in late December, 1827, she went almost immediately up the river to Memphis and thence to Louisville and Cincinnati, reaching the latter place about February 10, 1828. At Memphis she tarried a few days and went to visit Francis Wright's near-by Nashoba Community, which oppressed her with its unfinished buildings and primitive surroundings. After leaving Cincinnati, the scene of her most violent tirades against the United States, she passed the summer of 1830 in Maryland. Here she observed slavery, especially among the small landed proprietors, and found the slaves not badly treated, although she believed the essence of the system to be bad" - Clark 112. She also visited Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Washington, and New York. "A minor classic of looking down one's nose" - Streeter 845. Her book became an instant best seller. Her attacks on the Americans assured that the book would be an object of great controversy, and would sell on both sides of the Atlantic. Nevins calls it "the most prejudiced and hotly discussed of all British books of travel in the United States." Sabin 97028; Howes T35; Robinson p. 197. FIRST U.S. EDITION. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W147

Virginia Slavery
African American Slavery Documentation Virginia Receipts and Tax Records Enumerating Enslaved Persons as Property 1815-1854
1815. Manuscript fiscal records from antebellum Virginia demonstrate how enslaved people were formally incorporated into legal and economic systems as taxable property. These documents record enslaved individuals not as citizens but as items of assessed value within the personal property systems that structured the slave economy. Such records provide direct evidence of the bureaucratic mechanisms through which slavery functioned in the United States revealing how local governments and property holders catalogued enslaved African Americans alongside land livestock and other assets. The present group of Virginia documents dating from 1815 to 1854 records the ownership and taxation of enslaved people in Washington County during the decades preceding the Civil War.<br /> <br /> Archive of three manuscript fiscal documents from Washington County Virginia dated between 1815 and 1854. The earliest document dated 1 April 1815 records "A list of land & slaves owned by Jacob Campbell the first day of April 1815. The first district of Virginia Washington City." A second associated receipt enumerates eight enslaved persons identified by gender and age categories with assigned monetary values totaling 2170 dollars. A later tax receipt dated 1848 documents revenue obligations for Robert L. Berry and John Berry and includes "Slaves" among taxable property categories alongside horses clocks and land. The third document a tax receipt issued to Miss Francis Jane Irby in 1854 records taxable categories including "Black" titheables in addition to land salary and road levies reflecting the legal classification of enslaved African Americans within Virginia's tax system. Together the documents demonstrate the routine administrative recording of enslaved people as financial assets within county taxation and property accounting.<br /> <br /> Virginia occupied a central role in the history of American slavery. The first documented Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia in 1619 and by the mid nineteenth century enslaved African Americans constituted a substantial portion of the state's population. By the 1860 census more than one third of Virginia's inhabitants were enslaved people whose labor sustained the agricultural economy of the region. Manuscript tax records such as these provide stark evidence of the legal and economic framework that reduced human beings to taxable property within local government systems. Three manuscript documents measuring approximately 6.75 x 2 inches to standard letter size. Original folds present with minor foxing and a small chip to the lower left corner of one document; docketing on versos; text clear and legible. Overall condition very good. unknown

Virginia. Slavery. Faulkner Charles J.
To the Voters of Frederick County. Fellow Citizens:--I have consented to have my name placed before you as a candidate to represent you in the next congress of the United States Caption title & partial text
Winchester Va. 1833. Broadside 4to. 290 x 160 mm. 11 ¼ x 6 ¼ inches.  Printed in two columns signed in type by Charles J. Faulkner at Winchester dated March 8 1833 at conclusion. Lightly dust-soiled pale stain affecting perhaps one-third of the left-hand margin and column of text. Neatly silked on verso. Withal about very good. Following the August 1831 Nat Turner rebellion in Southampton County a last effort was made by moderate Virginians to gradually abolish slavery. Faulkner a 26-year-old lawyer and assemblyman along with Thomas Jefferson Randolph sponsored legislation to free all children born of slave parents after July 4 1840. His speech emphasized the evil of slavery for Southern white labor noting that slavery "converts the energy of the community into indolence--its power into imbecility--its efficiency into weakness.Shall society suffer that the slave-holder may continue to gather his crop of human flesh" As the Assembly was malapportioned in favor of the Tidewater slaveocracy the proposal lost rather narrowly and nearly thirty years later the Confederacy was assured of Virginia's succession. It is perhaps not surprising that Faulkner "comparatively a stranger" to the county but a member of the Virginia House of Delegates at this time 1831-34 was not successful in his campaign to represent Virginia in the U.S. Senate. However Faulkner was elected to three terms in Congress from Virginia in the 1850s. He was elected to Congress from West Virginia after the Civil War. In the interim he served as Minister to France during the Buchanan administration and on the staff of Stonewall Jackson. Dictionary of American Biography.  Not in Hummel. Not found in American Imprints for 1833 and not in the 1830-1839 title index. OCLC records four copies at The Library of Virginia University of Virginia Virginia Historical Society and American Antiquarian Society. unknown books

WATTS (Susanna)
A Walk through Leicester: being a Guide to Strangers: containing a description of the Town and its environs, with remarks upon its History and Antiquities.
Second Edition, with additions, 12mo, [5], 6-100pp., folding engraved map of the town of Leicester, 5 nineteenth-century mounted actual photographs tipped-in, and 6 engraved plates tipped, modern cloth, uncut, spine faded. Susanna Watts was born in Leicester and was dedicated to bringing about the immediate abolition of slavery. She started one of the first fair trade campaigns, wrote hymns and pamphlets and even locked horns with William Wilberforce. When her father died, her wealthy family's finances became tight and she had to find a way to support herself and her mother. At the age of 15 or 16 she began writing to earn money, and as well as penning the first guide to Leicester, she wrote poetry to promote the emancipation of slaves. To be a young woman and a published author in the late 18th Century would not have been an easy task, so the fact that she prevailed shows how passionate Susanna was in her desire to make her antislavery views known. "They dared to stand up in front of all these men and say what they thought was right ? two women from the provincial town of Leicester." According to Shirley Aucott, a local historian and author, Susanna worked on a periodical called 'The Hummingbird', which brought together different ideas on the antislavery moment, and she organised what must have been one of the first fair trade campaigns! She visited local households and shops to persuade them not to use sugar produced in the Caribbean, claiming that, "abstinence from sugar would sign the death warrant of West Indian slavery."

The white slave traffic.can and must be annihilated" 1915

During the Progressive period reforming public vice was a growing movement that saw victories with the passage of prohibition and other regulations on public decency. Due in part of organziations like the World'd Purity Federation in 1910 the White Slave Trade Act also known as the Mann Act passed in US Congress outlawing the transport of women typically European immigrants across state lines for the purpose of prostitution. Activists continued to meet strategize and organize tactics to ensure that the new legislation would be upheld and expanded.
