"The Sonoran Desert of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico sizzles in the sun. Daytime temperatures common ly soar above 120F. The parched mineral earth gets less than three inches of rainfall a year on average; some years none at all. Yet this is one of the most fascinating and beautiful places in North America. A large variety of plants - cr e o s o t e bush the fabled boojum and numerous other cacti and succulents - flourish here as do a wealth of birds insects and small mammals. Man is an uneasy resident and although modern cities such as Phoenix and Tucson survive on its fri ng es th e na tural heart of the desert still rejects all but the most intrepid sojourners. Two who know this desert well are the author and photographer of this book. Interwoven together the personal visions of these two remarkable observers ev oke t he So nor an Desert with extraordinary power. We may or may not wish to be in the desert as they have been but in these pages we will come as close as possible to being there." Price includes extra postage due to weight of book.

Bowdoin James
A Philosophical Discourse addressed to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; to which are added three memoirs on philosophical subjects
No Place: No Publisher. Pamphlet. Good. Publisher date and place missing although based on references this is believed to have been printed by Adams and Nourse: Boston 1786. Disbound pamphlet. Pagination runs 25-71 and is complete within that section although any preliminaries preface title page and plate are MISSING. A disbound work consisting of only the three memoirs and LACKING any text prior to page 25. A work consisting of three memoirs essays presenting Bowdoin's thoughts on the properties of light and electricity as influenced by Dr. Benjamin Franklin's observations on light and electrical fluid as well as light from the sun and stars and a conjecture on how celestial bodies may be preserved from ruin by the law of gravitation. The third memoir while also examining gravitation as it affects the solar system contains more theological conjecture than scientific discourse. This whole discourse first appeared in the first volume of Memoirs of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences reprinted here as a separate work. Sabin indicates this was probably printed for private distribution. GOOD condition with minor foxing to the first and last pages. Area of dampstain present at the upper rear corner of the last page near the spine. Minor creasing and toning to the pages. Small tear in the center fore edge of the first page. Remains of spine present along the binding. Page edges rather foxed. Sabin 7017. No Publisher unknown

Peter Smith: 1952. This book was first published in 1944 by Princeton University Press and this book is a reprint of that edition 254 pages. "The fact of foreign influence in America constitutes a problem of special difficulty and one whose study has scarcely yet begun. The present volume therefore makes no pretense of finality. In a rough sense its essays and critical bibliographies seek merely to define the problem; to describe the basic forms of cultural impact and assimilation to trace something of their history in American life and to survey or illustrate their more manifest effects upon our economic political artistic religious and philosophic institutions."
