BARONDESS, Benjamin (1891-1960)
Typed Note Signed / Unsigned Typescript
This prominent New York attorney was a noted Lincoln scholar author of the 1954 "Three Lincoln Masterpieces"; charter member and vice president of the noted Civil War Round Table of New York and namesake of the prestigious Benjamin Barondess Award for new Civil War titles. TNS 1p 8½" X 11" New York NY 1951 November 20. Addressed to CARL HAVERLIN 1899-1985 noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar radio pioneer and president of Broadcast Music Inc. BMI. Near fine. Referencing a Civil War Round Table event of the previous day Barondess jokes "Did you think you were going to escape thanks for your invitation to me to be one of the panel at the Gettysburg Address Seminar last night If so the error was profound." Boldly signed. Haverlin has scrawled the draft of a brief reply in bold pencil at upper left as was his custom. Accompanied by a carbon copy typescript of the very talk Barondess had given at that seminar 10pp rectos only 8½" X 11" n.p. 1951 November 19. Very good. Titled simply "BENJAMIN BARONDESS'S TALK" this double-spaced typescript on thin onion skin paper presents his overview of Lincoln's speech its preparation and reception. The following year an article by Barondess titled "The Gettysburg Address: Revealing facts about one of the 'Supreme Masterpieces of the English language'" was published in the Spring 1952 issue of "Autograph Collectors' Journal" and this is presumably the precursor of that article. An interesting and unusual pair for the Lincoln specialist. From the collection of noted Lincoln/Civil War scholar ARNOLD F. GATES 1914-93. unknown

Barrie James Matthew John F. Kennedy
Courage: The Rectorial Address Delivered at St. Andrews University May 3 1922.
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1937. First edition of Barrie's rousing inaugural address; a favorite of John F. Kennedy's as a college student at Harvard which would later play a role in the development of his Pulitzer Prize-winning work Profiles in Courage. Octavo original cloth. Association copy inscribed by John F. Kennedy on the front free endpaper "Dear Jerry Here's coals to Newcastle! Courage to the Courageous! John Kennedy Christmas 1939." In 1939 Kennedy toured Europe the Soviet Union the Balkans and the Middle East in preparation for his Harvard senior honors thesis. He then toured Berlin where he became involved for the first time in U.S. diplomacy at the outbreak of WWII. Kennedy developed an interest in political philosophy as an upperclassman at Harvard and in 1940 completed his thesis "Appeasement in Munich" regarding the efficacy of British negotiations during the Munich Agreement. The thesis would go on to become a bestseller under the title Why England Slept. In addition to addressing Britain's unwillingness to strengthen its military in the lead-up to World War II the book also called for an Anglo-American alliance against the rising totalitarian powers. In 1956 Kennedy published his second major work Profiles in Courage a volume of short biographies describing acts of bravery and integrity by eight United States Senators. Profiles in Courage went on to become a best-seller and won the Pulitzer Prize for Biography in 1957. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco slipcase. A rare and unique association copy. Though he achieved literary acclaim as a dramatist most notably with the timeless children's classic Peter Pan James Matthew Barrie tackled many subjects over the course of his career often grappling with philosophical and psychological topics. The breadth of his intellect is on full display in Courage the inaugural address delivered upon his election as Lord Rector of St. Andrew's University in an effort to inspire the youth before him. Of the daring comments included in the rousing speech he said "I sound to myself as if I were advocating a rebellion though I am really asking for a larger friendship."

BARRY, Charles (1795-1860)
Autograph Letter Signed
English architect whose most renowned creation is the Houses of Parliament Palace of Westminster a massive project completed between 1840 and 1860. ALS 2pp recto and verso 4½" X 7¼" Foley Place London 1841 May 5. Addressed to Mr. Eversfield. Very good. Mounting trace along leftmost ½" of first page touching almost no text; couple of minor foxing spots. Interesting and cryptic financial matters: "I shall be glad to be informed when I may expect another remittance on account of the Sale of the Old Materials of Bredperaton House and when it is likely you will forward to me a Marked Catalogue the Balance Sheet and the Balance. I am not sure whether I acknowledged the receipt of the first remittance of L 800." There was an auctioneer by the name of Eversfield active around this time in Kent County but what Barry's connection may have been to an auction and what the "old Materials" may have been remains to be verified. Nicely penned in brown ink. A nice example. unknown
