A Sermon of War Preached at the Melodeon on Sunday June 7 1846 Mexican-American War
Boston: I.R. Butts 1846. Paperback. Good. Third Edition. 33 1 p.; 20 cm. Stitched pamphlet; pages have not been trimmed. Former owner's name inscribed in an old hand at head of title page: Wm. Rutherford. Parker had become minister of the 28th Congregational Church Boston in January 1846; his congregation included Elizabeth Cady Stanton William Lloyd Garrison and Louisa May Alcott. He was an abolitionist and strongly opposed the Mexican-American War which began in 1846 after the United States annexed Texas. Although Mexico opposed the annexation because it considered Texas part of Mexico in the United States it was very divisive because it was seen as increasing the strenth of the Southern states in the struggle over slavery. The United States declared war on Mexico on May 13 1846; Parker preached this sermon less than one month later explaining his opposition to war in general and the war with Mexico in particular. In Good Condition: original stitching lacking and was restitched at some distance time; soiled; corners are creased with chipping of some lower corners; complete. I.R. Butts paperback

THE JESUITS IN NORTH AMERICA IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY. France and England in North America. Part Second.
pp. lxxxix, 463, (2) [Publisher's catalogue]. Illustrated with a map. Mildly XLib. XLib stamps in blind. 8vo. Original full orange cloth binding. Gilt lettered spine. Binding slightly worn. Hardbound. First published in 1867. "Francis Parkman (1823-1893) is best known as a historian, and particularly as author of The Oregon Trail: Sketches of Prairie and Rocky-Mountain Life, and his monumental seven volume France and England in North America. These works are considered masterpieces of both history and literature. He was also a horticulturist, briefly a Professor of Horticulture at Harvard University. In 1846, Parkman travelled west on a hunting expedition, where time living with the Sioux tribe, at a time when they were struggling with some of the effects of contact with Europeans, such as epidemic disease and alcoholism. This experience led Parkman to write about American Indians with a much different tone from earlier, more sympathetic portrayals represented by the "noble savage". Writing in the era of "Manifest Destiny", Parkman believed that the conquest and displacement of American Indians represented progress, a triumph of "civilization" over "savagery", a common view at the time. A scion of a wealthy Boston family, Parkman had enough money to pursue his research without having to worry too much about finances. His financial stability was enhanced by his modest lifestyle, and later, by the royalties from his book sales. He was thus able to commit much of his time to research, as well as to travel. He travelled across North America, visiting most of the historical locations he wrote about, and made frequent trips to Europe seeking original documents with which to further his research. Parkman's accomplishments are all the more impressive in light of the fact that he suffered from a debilitating neurological illness, which plagued him his entire life, and which was never properly diagnosed. He was often unable to walk, and for long periods he was effectively blind, being unable to stand but the slightest amount of light. Much of his research involved having people read documents to him, and much of his writing was written in the dark, or dictated to others." AMERICANA BOX 3
