‎THE LIFE OF GENERAL FRANCIS MARION A CELEBRATED PARTIZAN LEADER IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR AGAINST THE BRITISH AND TORIES IN SOUTH-CAROLINA AND GEORGIA‎

‎Philadelphia: M. Carey & Sons 1822. 251pp. plus six handcolored plates. 12mo. Modern calf leather label spine gilt by Sangorski and Sutcliffe. Modern bookplate on rear pastedown. Contemporary ownership signature and bookplate on front flyleaf. Light to moderate foxing and toning. Very good. Self-styled eighth edition. The plates have what appears to be contemporary color added. General Francis Marion "The Swamp Fox" was one of the leading American commanders in the Revolution in the South. His brilliant operations in the Carolinas kept thousands of British troops tied down and contributed immensely to ultimate American victory. Plain and unassuming he was widely beloved by his contemporaries and after his death this book began the process of his ascent to legend. Horry his second-in-command for part of the war supplied many of the facts although he was allegedly disgusted by Weems' flowery passages and disclaimed any connection with the book. What he disliked others embraced and the book went through many editions. This edition not in Howes. SHOEMAKER 11389. HOWES H650. M. Carey & Sons hardcover books‎

‎New York: Anchor Books 1990. Reprint. Trade Paperback. Good. Reprint. Faint foxing wave. 1990 Trade Paperback. The rise and fall of British Empiricism is philosophy's most dramatic example of pushing premises to their logical--and fatal--conclusions. Born in 1690 with the appearance of Locke's Essay Empiricism flourished as the reigning school until 1739 when Hume's Treatise strangled it with its own cinctures after a period of Berkeley's optimistic idealism. The Empiricists collects the key writings on this important philosophy perfect for those interested in learning about this movement with just one book. Anchor Books paperback books‎

Brown cloth open-end case. A good copy of this cornerstone of American policy. First American from the twentieth London edition. The first American complete edition an abridged version having been published in Boston in 1794. Folding table at front. 3 vols. 12mo. In 18th century America as it was the age of reason and Enlightenment the colonists needed the justification or rationalization of their disagreement and resultant actions with England citing their immutable rights as Englishmen and quoting the basic English institutions. As the "philosopher of the Enlightenment" Locke's theories and writings were seized upon by the colonists especially with Locke's "doctrine of natural rights" his theories on "life liberty and property" religious toleration and proper representation in government. His writings gave the colonist a firm foundation upon which to base many of their statements. To Locke goes much of the credit for many of the ideas forming the Virginia Declaration of Rights drafted by George Mason. Many of the other states used that constitution as a basis for their own. Locke's advocacy of a "laissez faire" economic policy was shared by Jefferson who agreed with the idea that the "government is best which governs least" Cohen "American Thought" p. 132. The conclusion reached in the "Essay" "that though knowledge must necessarily fall short of complete comprehension it can at least be 'sufficient'; enough to convince us that we are not at the mercy of pure chance and can of some extent control our own destiny" summarizes American intent and beliefs.
