Alden John B. manager
The Literary Revolution. May 1880. Volume 1 No. 1
New York: American Book Exchange Presumed Publisher 1880. Wraps. Good. Small newspaper style format 4 pages. Presumably an advertising circular for the American Book Exchange publishing company touting its many book offerings as well as promoting their affordability and durability. This includes citing added costs of different fonts used by other publishers as well as other 'ploys' that drive up the cost of books for the consumer contrasting them with the Literary Revolution's cost effective practices. According to Raymond Shove 'Few men have been more heartily disliked for their publishing activities by American publishers and booksellers than was John B. Alden' due to his publishing practices that were perhaps borderline if not outright underhanded causing turmoil between publishers and booksellers. It seems he was not always monetarily successful but he did succeed in putting the works of popular authors in front of the public see Shove's Cheap Book Production in the United States for previous quote. GOOD condition. Fold crease present. Some creasing wrinkling and minor tearing along the extremities. Light toning. American Book Exchange, Presumed Publisher unknown

ICE PALACES.
Toronto: Macmillan of Canada 1983. 132 pp oblong 9 1/8" H x 10 3/4" D. Profusely illustrated with colour and b&w photographs repro-ductions architectural drawings. "The magical buildings illustrated in this pioneer study of a virtually unknown architectural phenomenon were truly built of ice and they were said to shimmer with color and fire reminiscent of sapphire topaz and opal. In style they recalled medieval castles Gothic cathed-rals Russian palaces and Art Deco fantasies. Many were huge reaching as high as a 14 -story building and extending as long as a football field but of course there's no physical trace of them. Nevertheless the authors have discovered dozens of historic photographs lithographs postcards paintings and drawings of these fabulous but ephemeral constructions as well as mementoes of the winter activities and sports surrounding their creation. They relate the history of ice castle building and examine about thirty in detail. This type of architectural tour de fource had its beginning in 18th-century Russia when the eccentric Empress Anna Ivanova built an icy honeymoon cottage for an out-of-favor prince. In North America ice palaces were created as centrepieces for the winter carnivals that sprang up in northern cities in the late 19th century. Between 1883 and 1942 grand castles were built of blocks of ice in the Canadian cities of Montreal Quebec and Ottawa and also in St. Paul Minnesota and Leadville Colorado. Today the leading centers for construction in ice and snow are at the annual winter festivals held in Quebec Canada and Sapporo Japan. The authors - both architects - examine the theory and practice of building with ice which under certain conditions has the structural properties of concrete both for practical and fantastic purposes." Book is clean and bright. Dust jacket has light rubbing - mainly on front panel minor wrinkling at top of spine. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. Macmillan of Canada Hardcover
