Grubb, Sarah.
SOME ACCOUNT OF THE LIFE AND RELIGIOUS LABOURS OF SARAH GRUBB. With an Appendix Containing an Account of Ackworth School, Remarks on Christian Discipline, and Extracts from Her Letters.
pp. vi, 438. Some light foxing. 12mo. 205mm. Contemporary full leather binding, cracked at joints. Front board fragile. A nice example. Sarah Tuke Grubb (1756-1790) was born at York, England and traveled throughout England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany and France as a minister of the Society of Friends. This account of her life and travel with extracts from her writings is extremely informative. Especially worthy of attention is her interest in Ackworth School (a Friends boarding school for girls) and her interest in Christian education generally. These particular accounts were addressed to a friend in America who was interested in founding similar institutions there. First published in Dublin in 1792. This Second Edition, served as a model for the first American edition (Trenton: 1795). **PRICE JUST REDUCED! PA 60 L Stk

This account of his Italian travels (1855-1857) in journal form was first published in 1859.

Jameson, Mrs.
THE DIARY OF AN ENNUYEE. From the Last London Edition.
341p. + Engraved portrait frontis. All edges gold. XLib. (24mo in 8's). Original full blue cloth binding embossed in gold and blind. Hardbound. Anna Brownell Jameson (1794-1860) was born in Dublin and after several moves with her family (including one stay above a bookseller) she settled in London. In 1820 or 1821, Anna was introduced to, and subsequently became engaged to a lawyer, Robert Jameson, the protege Basil Montagu, and a friend of Hartley Coleridge, Charles Lamb and Henry Crabbe Robinson. By June 1821, however, she had broken her engagement and had set off for Italy with the Rowles as a governess to their daughter, Laura. In 1825, she finally married Robert Jameson. Around the same time she wrote 'The Diary of an Ennuyee' which was originally published anonymously in 1826 and called 'A Lady's Diary'. The text was widely read as the actual travel biography of a young, heartbroken English lady traveling through Europe for the first time. The writer is suffering from an illness and a recurring melancholy that she often mentions and that often appears to impair her enjoyment of her travels. The last twenty pages of the text see the `writer' becoming increasingly ill and dying. Of course the book gained her a certain notoriety when it was revealed to be fictitious rather than strictly autobiographical. Curious little Civil War era edition. ** PRICE JUST REDUCED!! TRAVEL/2

JOURNAL OF THE LIFE AND RELIGIOUS LABOURS OF ELIAS HICKS. Written by Himself.
451 p. Old penciled margin marks. Foxed. 8vo. 225 mm. Disbound. 2nd edition. AI #12903. "Elias Hicks (1748-1830) was an itinerant Quaker preacher from Long Island, New York. He promoted doctrines that embroiled him in controversy that led to the first major schism within the Religious Society of Friends. . Hicks was one of the early abolitionists among the Friends. He spoke about slavery often and worked hard to persuade others to oppose it. His 'Observations on the Slavery of the Africans' (1811), which argued for a boycott of slavery-produced goods, represented one of the earliest social reform boycott efforts in the United States. The state of New York, due in part to Hicks's efforts, abolished slavery within its borders on July 4, 1827" - Wiki. PA SHELF 60 MIDSTK

Born in Hamburg Germany, Henry Barth was one of the greatest of the European explorers of Africa. His scholarly preparation, ability to speak and write Arabic, learning African languages, and character meant that he carefully documented the details of the cultures he visited. He was among the first to comprehend the uses of oral history of peoples, and collected many. He established friendships with African rulers and scholars during his five years of travel (1850-1855). After the deaths of two European companions, he completed his travels with the aid of Africans. Afterwards, he wrote and published a five-volume account of his travels in both English and German.
