GRISHAM PETER H. 2nd Ky. Cavalry
1881 1883 1890 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT JOURNALS/DIARIES OF P.H. GRISHAM CIVIL WAR VETERAN GENEALOGIST OF WASHINGTON DC ALEXANDRIA VIRGINIA ARKANSAS AND TENNESSEE
USA. Good. 1881. Original Cloth. Three curious diaries/logs/journals of Peter H. Grisham mustered out a Corporal of the 2nd Kentucky Cavalry. Peter tends to write front to back and then change back to front in these 'pocketbook' type journal. Peter meanders making observations jotting memories detailing genealogical histories; Mrs. Mary Bevins his sister some famed people he knew through his father and notes the history of the family's steel works is in the snippets to follow. "July 10th 1883. My duties have been arduous have neglected to keep up any diary regularly. I went to Arkansas - last May was a year - via Baltimore Harrisburg Pittsburg Chicago St. Louis by RRs and by Steamer too Memphis by RR to Little Rock Geary Ark. to my sister Mrs. Mary Blevins near Pangburn White Co. Ark" "July 22nd 1883 - Wrote letter to J. Lundy Brotherton Phila. in reply to his in regard to Benj Lundy and Elihu and Elijah Embree who printed published the 1st Emancipation newspaper in the US States some 50 years ago.took me to clerk at his great ironworks in 1838.I stayed at his house as a clerk near six years and was present when he died." "About six years ago Bridget an Irish girl that sews for them that G. Eaton was paymaster general under Genl Scott killed himself before this: he ran away with the granddght of his 1st wife. Col. Clark.knows of it." July 29th 1883 Alexandria Va. This ancient city is still inhabited by many of the old Virginia Aristocracy who own the best of the property. The city was mostly of the tory sort I believe in the days of Washington - who attended Church here in the same building I did today.That it sympathised with England and the King may be inferred from the names of the streets - King St. Queen St. Prince.It was also a strong rebel city during the late war sending about a thousand soldiers into the rebel army under Genl R.E. Lee who lived a few miles above opposite the city of Washington. The pocketbook has a page or two missing one hinge is loose is written in pencil blue crayon and pen. A number of pages are financial - stock holdings monies loaned and repaid. Some more legible than others especially the log parts where he has crossed out information that was no longer relelvant. 50pp. Diary for 1881 also a pocketbook style tells the long tale of the death of Catherine M. Melville and other historically relevant events for Washington City DC as he writes. 20pp.Diary for 1890 is for the most part very much like the others.; Manuscript; 32mo - over 4" - 5" tall; HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY AMERICANA Genealogy Tennessee Washington Dc Alexandria Virginia Americana Civil War . hardcover

GRISSOM EDGAR
Ernest Hemingway: A Descriptive Bibliography
Oak Knoll Press New Castle: 2011. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Edgar Grissom's Ernest Hemingway: A Descriptive Bibliography can succinctly be described as the culmination of all previous endeavors in Hemingway bibliography. Grissom corrects the work of previous bibliographers adding numerous editions and printings to the periods they covered and addressing the years 1975-2009 which had previously been left untouched. This is the only bibliography of Hemingway to classify edition printing issue and state and provide a classical bibliographical description. It is the only text that provides and describes every printing of every edition as well as a comprehensive list of the parent editions of the primary works. Additionally the text supplies the locations of those copies described. Grissom questions and corrects established Hemingway misconceptions with references to support all of his claims. All continental editions are recognized: Albatross Continental Library Continental Book Company Zephyr Books and Tauchnitz volumes and Grissom treats with equal bibliographical importance the foreign American and English printings providing full bibliographical descriptions of each. The book includes a number of useful appendices: Grissom has created sections with reviews and epigraphs containing material by Hemingway interviews with Hemingway as well as lists of plays television productions and films adapted from Hemingway's works. An informative introduction describes key terms and abbreviations used throughout. The bibliography is generously illustrated with title pages and copyright pages throughout the text. Accompanying the printed volume is a DVD-ROM with more than 2000 color illustrations including more than 50 images of Hemingway's signature from 1908 to 1960. These include dust jackets covers and spines allowing for accurate comparison and identification of nearly all of Hemingway's work. The DVD-ROM also includes more than 112 pages of additional text. Ernest Hemingway: A Descriptive Bibliography is sure to be the definitive resource for Hemingway collectors scholars and libraries for many years to come. Dr. C. Edgar Grissom is a retired physician living with his wife and their five rescued cats on a lake in the piney woods of southern Mississippi. Maintaining a lifelong interest in Ernest Hemingway Dr. Grissom has collected for over forty years and has devoted the last twelve years to researching and writing this bibliography. His primary interest remains the bibliographical scholarship of materials pertinent to the development of standard editions. He is presently engaged in collating editions of Hemingway's primary works from the period 1923-1952. Oak Knoll Press, New Castle: 2011 hardcover

Griswold Rufus Wilmot
The Prose Writers of America with a Survey of the Intellectual History Condition and Prospects of the Country.
Philadelphia: Parry & McMillan 1857. Prose Writers of America was first published in 1847 this is the 4th and last edition. And was specifically designed to compete with a similar anthology by Cornelius Mathews and Evert Augustus Duyckinck. Editor/author Rufus Wilmot Griswold was an influential editor but less than civil and scrupulous he outed Walt Whitman although apparently it took one to know one and is perhaps best remembered today for defaming Egdar Allan Poe even becoming Poe's literary executor under less than ethical circumstances. We couldn't find anyone to say anything nice about him: http://www.answers.com/topic/rufus-griswold & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rufus_Griswold & http://www.poeforward.com/poe/griswold.html & http://www.eapoe.org/geninfo/poegrisw.htm although there is a lot of interesting reading. This volume was one of his last works a piece of somewhat controversial literary history. Green cloth with decorative gilt on front and back covers and spine. Bevelled edges. Soil to covers; chipping and wear to head and heel of spine wear to corners edgewear. Interesting cover with a cameo-like circular cut out both front and back covers with gilt floral inet. Pencilled price on fep. Frontispiece of Washington Irving. Some foxing to frontispiece title pages about the first few pages of the book and the last several. 552 toned pages with double borders. We noted two previously folded page corners a pencilled x on the margin of the first contents page and a wrinkle on contents page. Sewn binding with slightly weak endpapers. Gilt stain all around is a bit dull. The type size for this volume is on the small size about 8 points is our guess. Authors include: William Ellery Channing; Daniel Webster; John James Audubon; Joseph Stevens Buckminster; Andrews Norton; John Anderson; T. B. Thorpe; Edward Everett; Orville Dewey; James Fenimore Cooper; Caroline M Kirkland; E.P. Whipple; John Sanderson; William H. Prescott; Catherine M. Sedgwick; William Cullen Bryant; James Hall; more. Several illustrations including portraits of Joseph Story; President Edwards; John James Audubon; James Fenimore Cooper; William H. Prescott; Ralph Waldo Emerson; Charles Fenno Hoffman. Thanks for shopping with us! 100% of your purchase benefits charity and supports literacy and lifelong learning. Decorative Cloth. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall.

Platonica prosopographia sive expositio judicii quod Plato tulit de iis qui in scriptis ipsius aut loquentes inducuntur aut quavis de causa commemorantur.
Leiden Lugduni Batavorum Apud H.W. Hazenberg juniorem 1823. 8vo. XV12388 theses p.

He lead the evangelical renewal movement thriving at the time the European Continental counterpart to the Second Great Awakening known in the Netherlands as the 'Reveil'.

Groen played as a political writer and a member of the Second Chamber of Parliament a prominent role in Dutch home politics. As the leader of the protestant anti-revolutionary movement he gradually created the ideological basis on which after his death in 1879 Abraham Kuyper founded the 'Anti Revolutionary Party' Anti-Revolutionaire Partij Source Wikipedia hardcover
