New York: Harper and Brothers 1868. Wraps. Fair. Folio. Illustrated wraps. Folio. Pagination runs 401-416. Black and white photos and illustrations throughout. Single issue of this journal this featuring a full page front cover political cartoon by Thomas Nast. Titled "The Political Niagara-A Drowning Man Catches at a Straw" the work depicts the Democratic Party just about to go over the falls grasping at a cane that bears the head of an African American man with a sign to the write mentioning the S.P. Chase as their candidate for president. A US flag in the distance reads Grant/Colfax.

The duel was between Jackson Brand and Eugene Moorehead as the result of alleged political loyalties.

FAIR/GOOD condition. Horizontal fold crease present. Moderate toning with some soiling and offsetting. Some chipping and tearing mostly along the fore edge.

L'Harmattan L'Harmattan, 2006. In-8 broché de 309 pages. troisième et dernier tome.

This spans from October 30 1776 to February 25 1777. No author. These proceedings open with an address by King George to parliament regarding the American Revolution. It begins "Nothing could have afforded me so much satisfaction as to have been able to inform you at the opening of this session that the troubles which have so long distracted my colonies in North America were at an end; and that my unhappy people recovered from their delusion had delivered themselves from the oppression of their leaders and returned to their duty .". After this address various members of parliament respond some with support for the war and others advocating granting America its independence. Some of these speeches go into detail in regard to troops morale conduct propaganda in the US press especially propaganda by General Gage. Also discussed within are Britainn's defenses against Spain and France Jamaica and many other interesting topics. The debates over the war with America are amazing historical references serving to frame the Revolutionary War through the eyes of the British.

VERY GOOD condition with light soiling light fading and moderate scuffing mostly noticeable to the top and bottom of the spine. Light bumping and edgewear. Pages clean and solid but browning.

Beverly Massachusetts Handwritten Store Ledger
No Place: No printer or publisher Given. Hard Cover. Fair/No Jacket. Handwritten store ledger from the Beverly Massachusetts area. Appears to be for a grocery store and perhaps was either owned by a Nathan W. Patch or by his relatives as his signature appears prominently on the first blank endpaper. Entries run from 1850 through the 1860's with some found in the back from 1875. Items appear as line entries with cost and the various purchaser's names at the top. Some names include Richard Woodberry Ezra Edwards Joseph Hillham Joseph Jewett Foster among others. The first half of the ledger bears these entries with the second half having blank pages and pages filled with what appears practice penmanship and basic math problems etc. Several pages in the rear are cut in half perhaps to serve some function to the ledger itself although this is not certain. Bound leather boards with marbled endpapers. In FAIR condition with heavy scuffing to the covers and extremities some loss of leather at the corners and spine and minor to moderate soiling. Heavy forward lean to the binding. Interior is solid with uneven fading to the pages with some being rather faded and thus hard to read and others with little to no fading. Scattered soiling throughout as well as some small scattered ink blots and other minor wear. A few pages to the rear have heavy dark scribbling on them. No printer or publisher Given unknown

Two pamphlets. 6 pp with a blank rear endpaper; 10 pp with a blank rear endpaper. Both disbound from larger works with a single thread binding part II. Side folded. Two US government pamphlets regarding California and its potential admission to the Union as well as the minority report part II against the admission of California as a state. The first part proposes to make territory acquired with the treaty of peace with Mexico one state California although outlining potential land disputes with the state of Texas and its claims. Part II continues reports and debates on the recent land acquisitions alluding to potential problems but also containing the bill at the end that proposes to make California a state. It also describes in brief the vast dimensions of the proposed state. Much of this report derives from the then recent conclusion of the U.S.-Mexican War 1846-1848 and the territory gained at the end of the War. California officially gained statehood in September of 1850. Both in GOOD condition. Paper splitting along the spines in danger of becoming separated. General browning to the paper.
