Jackson Robert
A treatise on the fevers of Jamaica, with some observations on the intermitting fever of America, and an appendix, containing some hints on the means of perseve. Ring the health of soldiers in hot climates.
In 8°; VIII, 424, 115 pp. Legatura coeva in cartoncino rigido con piatti foderati con carta azzurra. Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione ed ancora in barbe. Antica firma di appartenenza al recto del piatto anteriore "Watson Alcock". Prima rara edizione di questo celeberrimo trattato sulle febbri che colpirono sul finire del XVIII° secolo la Jamaica e le coste nordamericane. L'autore servì per due anni nel reggimento scozzese di stanza a New York e risiedette anche per un certo periodo in Jamaica. "The observations, contained in the following pages, were made during the time that I lived in Jamaica, or while I attended some part of the army in America. The materials were collected between the years 1774 and 1782" (Preface, p. iii). L'autore è riconosciuto come uno degli innovatori delle tecniche di cura delle febbri gialle. Si opponeva in modo deciso all'eccessivo uso del bisturi promuovendo tecniche di cura farmacologiche e preventive. Egli parte dalle osservazioni fatte da Ramazzini nel territorio modenese per cercare poi punti di contatto con altre testimonianze di "febbri intermittenti" segnalate in vari luoghi del mondo cercando un collegamento che ne dimostri la causa. Analizza poi casi pratici ed epidemie che colpirono la Jamaica e le coste nordamericane e nelle quali Jackson fu testimone oculare. Prima edizione in barbe. First edition a very good copy.

ACCOUNT OF A SHOOTING EXCURSION ON THE MOUNTAINS NEAR DROMILLY ESTATE IN THE PARISH OF TRELAWNY AND ISLAND OF JAMAICA IN THE MONTH OF OCTOBER 1824!!!
London: Printed by Harvey and Darton 1825. 3-15pp. Lacks half title. Recent half black morocco and grey cloth boards title stamped in blue on front board. Bookplate on front pastedown Stephen Hopwood Jamaican binder's ticket on rear pastedown newspaper article bound in at rear. Front hinge just starting slight soiling to titlepage light tanning. Very good. First edition of this account of the "wanton cold-blooded" hunting of runaway slaves in Jamaica. The "shooting excursion" in the title refers to the 1824 "attack made by a party of islanders upon a long-established camp of runaway slaves who had lived peaceably for years in a forest settlement" Ragatz. The pamphlet includes summaries of the attack from the MONTEGO BAY GAZETTE CORNWALL COURIER and CORNWALL GAZETTE as well as an illustration of the camp showing the route of the attackers. The author explains that "the barbarous excursions which have been described did not owe their origin to any insurrection of the Negroes in consequence of any discussions in the British Parliament nor in consequence of any stir made by the British people in their behalf. They were as the account itself testifies wanton cold-blooded excursions on the part of the white inhabitants of Trelawny to root up a runaway settlement which had subsisted eleven years without offense or molestation to the neighbourhood" p.6. The author of the text is unknown signed only at the end in print as "Alfred." <br> <br> This copy was bound at the Verona Bindery in Kingston Jamaica and includes a newspaper article mounted and bound in at rear from THE JAMAICA WEEKLY GLEANER February 8 1982 recounting the attacks.

Some wear and tanning to half title and p.24 paper fault in upper right corner of titlepage no text affected. Very good. Second edition following the first of 1825 giving accounts of the "wanton cold-blooded" hunting of runaway slaves in Jamaica.

Fine. with: ACTS OF ASSEMBLY PASSED IN THE ISLAND OF JAMAICA FROM THE YEAR 1784 TO THE YEAR 1788 INCLUSIVE. Kingston: Printed by Alexander Aikman 1789. xvi300iv423pp. Quarto. Old calf rebacked. Near fine. All together an extraordinary collection of 18th-century Jamaican printing combining six separate imprints one of them consisting of two volumes in three bound volumes all printed between 1786 and 1789 by two different printers in Kingston Jamaica. The texts retrospectively cover the Acts of the Assembly from its beginning in 1681 up to date with the last printing in 1788. Also included are two separate publications containing abridgements of the various acts and a further separate publication combining all of the slave statutes in one place. <br> <br> As anyone who has sought them knows well all 18th-century Caribbean imprints are rare most extremely so and these laws are no exception. Furthermore most Caribbean printing is fairly slight not substantial volumes such as these. Printing began in Jamaica in 1718. It was the first British colony south of Maryland to have a printing press and except for several items printed in Havana by a press briefly established there this was the first press in the Caribbean; however only a handful of fugitive pieces survive from the 1770s. In that period the economic importance of Jamaica was supplemented by an influx of Loyalists including printer Alexander Aikman who seems to have invigorated the cultural and publishing life of the colony while the British government liberalized its colonial policy to avoid a repetition of the problems of the American Revolution. In that climate these retrospective and current laws of the local colonial government were printed. Of all early Caribbean printing that of Jamaica is best documented through the early and thorough work of Frank Cundall. His bibliographies illustrate both the rich variety of material printed on Jamaica and its rarity. <br> <br> Following are the NUC locations and citations of the laws offered herein: <br> <br> 1 ACTS OF ASSEMBLY 1681-1769. Kingston 1787. Not in the NUC. CUNDALL p.52. <br> <br> 2 ABRIDGEMENT OF LAWS. Kingston 1787. Not in the NUC or Cundall. <br> <br> 3 LAWS RESPECTING SLAVES. Kingston 1787.

ACTS OF ASSEMBLY. PASSED IN THE ISLAND OF JAMAICA; FROM 1770 TO 1783 INCLUSIVE. bound with: AN ABRIDGMENT OF THE LAWS OF JAMAICA: COMPREHENDING THE SUBJECT-MATTER OF EACH ACT AND CLAUSE PROPERLY DIGESTED. TO WHICH IS PREFIXED BY WAY OF INDEX A TABLE OF THE GENERAL TITLES AND MARGINAL NOTES
Kingston Jamaica: Printed for James Jones Esq. by Lewis and Eberall 1786. v3114-424; 440pp. Quarto. Modern polished calf gilt leather label. Contemporary ownership inscription on titlepage of ACTS.: "George Harrison Lincolns Inn 1791." Titlepage worn and soiled repairs in top and bottom margin with no loss of text. Occasional minor foxing last two leaves dampstained. Small hole in leaf F with loss of a few letters. First four leaves and last four leaves of AN ABRIDGMENT. dampstained leaf aa repaired no loss of text final leaf supplied in facsimile. These exceptions noted very clean internally. A very good copy. First editions of two rare 18th-century Jamaican legal imprints. The volume was previously owned by legal author Sir George Harrison the son of Thomas Harrison who served as attorney-general and advocate- general of Jamaica. The elder Harrison's name is included in the list of subscribers for the ACTS. and father or son have made minor manuscript additions on a half dozen pages in the text. <br> <br> The volume records both public and private acts organized chronologically for 1770 through 1783. The ABRIDGMENT. published as a separate work with separate titlepage clearly supplements the ACTS. by listing the acts by subject and providing an index. There are numerous acts regarding slaves which provide much insight into that institution on the island including legislation regarding runaways "Free- Negroes" "Negro towns" and maroons firearms holidays and even drumming. Other acts cover a wide range of laws and activities including those related to land roads cattle gaming hawkers and pedlars the militia settlers ships and smuggling. <br> <br> All 18th-century Caribbean imprints are rare most are extremely so and these laws are no exception. Furthermore the majority of Caribbean printing is often ephemeral and fairly slight rather than a substantial volume such as this one. The first British colony south of Maryland to have a press printing began in Jamaica in 1718. Except for several items printed in Havana by a press briefly established there this was the first press in the Caribbean; however only a handful of fugitive pieces survive from the 1770s. In that period the economic importance of Jamaica was supplemented by an influx of Loyalists who seems to have invigorated the cultural and publishing life of the colony while the British government liberalized its colonial policy to avoid a repetition of the problems of the American Revolution. In this social and political climate these retrospective laws of the local colonial government were printed. <br> <br> A very good copy of two rare 18th-century Jamaican imprints with provenance related to the island and British legal history.

RETURN OF THE PROPRIETORS PROPERTIES &c. GIVEN IN TO THE VESTRIES FOR THE MARCH QUARTER 1823
Kingston: Printed by Alex. Aikman Junior 1823. 24pp. 12mo. Dbd. signatures loose. Some soiling throughout. In good condition. A rare Jamaican imprint giving the names of the proprietors on the island the name of their properties and the number of slaves and livestock that they owned. The list is very detailed and is divided by parishes. Though without an imprint we believe that it was printed by Alexander Aikman Jr. official printer to the Jamaican government and the son of a printer who ran one of the early presses on Jamaica. According to Cundall Alexander Aikman Jr. began publishing Jamaica almanacs in 1812. OCLC locates no copies of this RETURN. for the March Quarter of 1823. Any surviving ephemeral material from Jamaica in this period is rare. CUNDALL p.89 ref. Printed by Alex. Aikman, Junior unknown books
