New York: Printed by G.L. Birch & Co. 1820. 214pp. 16mo. Modern paper-covered boards leather label. Leaves a bit tanned else very good. An interesting work on saving and thrift by a consequential American diplomat. Most of the essays blame poverty and bankruptcy on moral faults such as reckless spending and devotion to fashion. Among the examples of moral failings Noah offers are rowdy teens at a late-night oyster house and Wall Street wives bidding recklessly at a silverware auction. Mordecai Noah 1785-1851 was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. Noah was notable as one of the first American Jews to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons. He was editor of the NATIONAL ADVOCATE in New York for over a decade beginning in 1817. SHOEMAKER 2557. WOLF UNRECORDED JUDAICA 50. BAL 14997. Printed by G.L. Birch & Co. hardcover books

Early ownership signature of "Richard L. Schieffelin New York 1819." Noah 1785-1851 was a lawyer playwright and journalist. He was born in Philadelphia of Portuguese-Jewish ancestry. "In 1813 he was appointed consul to Tunis with a special mission to Algers. He was instructed to negotiate for the release of some Americans held as prisoners by the Algerine pirates. On May 23 1813 he sailed from Charleston but his vessel being captured by the British he was taken to England and detained two months. In October he arrived in Cadiz where he contracted with Richard R. Keene an American who had become a Spanish subject to affect the release of the twelve Americans . After being detained in France and Spain for more than a year Noah finally arrived in Tunis. On July 30 1815 he received a letter from James Monroe secretary of state revoking his commission and hinting at irregularities in his accounts. Monroe's treatment of Noah was never satisfactorily explained though his association with Keene who had been accused of treason was doubtless detrimental.In January 1817 however Noah received a letter from the Department of State which vindicated his conduct and returned several thousand dollars due him in the enterprise which resulted in the release of the American captives" DAB.
