Switzer Jennie Bartlett
Elder Northfield's home; or sacrificed on the Mormon altar. A story of territorial days in Utah. Second edition
Boston: B. B. Russell Co 1894. 8vo pp. 3 6-319 1; printed self-wrappers rear wrapper wanting; spine largely perished; stitching sound. Title page inscribed "with love and best wishes of the author." Originally published by J. Howard Brown Co. circa 1882 with the subtitle A story of the blighting curse of polygamy. "The practice of plural marriage commonly known as polygamy stirred intense controversy in postbellum America until 1890 when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints first officially abolished the practice. Elder Northfield's Home published by A. Jennie Bartlett in 1882 is both a staunchly antipolygamy novel and a call for the sentimental repatriation of polygamy's victims. Her book traces the fate of a virtuous and educated English immigrant woman Marion Wescott who marries a Mormon elder Henry Northfield. Shocked when her husband violates his promise not to take a second wife Marion attempts to flee during the night toddler son in her arms and pulling her worldly possessions in his toy wagon. She returns to her husband however and the balance of the novel traces the effects of polygamy on Marion Henry and their children; their eventual rejection of plural marriage; and their return to a normal and healthy family structure."

Bartlett Henry A.
Journal kept by Lieut. Henry A. Bartlett U.S. Marine Corps U.S.S. Sacramento. 2nd rate. Commenced at Cape Town S. Africa April 27 1867
1887. 4to 353 pages of entries in a legible hand approx. 65000 words plus an additional 80 pages of notes lists of officers and ships and tables of ships coordinates. Contemporary half sheep over cloth chipping and wear to spine and edges all page edges marbled. Bartlett's ink name and other notes on spine. Laid in are three silver albumen prints depicting Bartlett at various points in his career a letter from the Secretary of the State in Schuylkill Rodman Wister as well as handwritten copies of correspondence between Willard Bartlett and W.C. Whitney and three small broadsides of General Orders likely printed aboard ship. A small oval photo of the U.S.S. Sacramento in March 1867 is laid down on the ms. title page. Three small hand-colored illustrations of natives from sketches by M. Hypolite Silvaf are laid in or laid down in the text. Henry Bartlett was born in Rhode Island son of John Russell Bartlett an ethnologist and well known author of The Dictionary of Americanisms published in 1848 who also served for many years as Rhode Island's Secretary of State. He was also the state's first bibliographer having compiled A Bibliography of Rhode Island Providence 1864. Henry Bartlett saw service in the Civil War commissioned a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps in 1861. He was put in command of the Marine Guard aboard the iron-clad "New Ironsides" involved in actions in Charleston Harbor and later was part of the expedition to capture St. Augustine. Bartlett used this journal over the course of two decades during tours of duty as a U.S. Marine aboard the USS Sacramento from Cape Town to Ceylon Pondicherry Madras etc. in 1867; aboard the US Flag Ship Contoocook bound for Havana from 1868-69; on the US Flag Ship Hartford on the Asiatic Station in China and Japan from 1872-75; and on the USS Trenton in China Japan and Korea 1883-86. He records in some detail life aboard ship and at the various ports he visited. During his time on the Asiatic Station he also acted as a Judge Advocate at on board court martials. Following the Civil War the U.S. Navy along with the Marine Corps was expanding its influence and its reach around the globe. Of particular note is Bartlett's tour with the USS Trenton just as the first US diplomats were making inroads in Korea. By 1867 when this journal commences he was aboard the USS Sacramento bound for India. In short near daily entries later less frequent Bartlett records the weather; ports visited interactions with other international ships in the harbors etc. He mentions encountering a French Corvette bound for New Caledonia with 200 convicts aboard including twelve women. He notes the presence of two American whalers and an outbreak of yellow fever at Mauritius. In Ceylon he mentions meeting the American Consul going hunting and sightseeing and dining well on several kinds of curry. The account ends somewhat abruptly when the ship runs aground. Apparently while sailing en route from Madras to Calcutta the Sacramento was stranded on an uncharted shoal. Makeshift rafts were constructed and Bartlett boarded the last of these to leave the ship. Bartlett's raft suffered the misfortune of drifting miles away from the wreck and for two days the small craft with its 29 passengers was hopelessly lost at sea until rescued by the steamer Madras. Bartlett resumes his record in September 1868 with his new post aboard the US Flag Ship Contoocook bound for Havana. Anchored in the harbor there by mid-November Bartlett observes: "Havana is a strange looking place a great number of old tumble down forts at the entrance to the harbor mounting any number of guns. We found two large Spanish vessels in port & one English Man-of-War the "Jason." The Governor General Lersundi still holds out for the Queen. He had sixteen thousands troops in the city of Havana for which reason this place is very quiet - the island is much excited. We hear of fighting near us." In January he mentions that Captain General Dulce has little or no control over the Volunteers. "The force of Marines from the vessels lying here went on shore during the afternoon to try and keep quiet in the City. Cohner an American citizen was shot Sunday night while walking near his house." By June 1869 the Captain General Dulce had been driven from office and the city was under the control of an armed mob. Yellow fever and cholera were also constant threats to the health of locals and sailors. Despite the turmoil Bartlett managed to see a bull fight buy cigars and tour the sugar estate of the Arriettas known as "Flor de Cuba." The journal recommences in September 1872 with Bartlett's next post aboard the US Flag Ship Hartford bound for Hong Kong China and Japan. By spring they were moving from port to port in the Far East Singapore Hong Kong Shanghai Chin Kiang and Canton the Temple of Longevity Flowery Pagoda the Temple of the Sleeping Buddha etc. and dining on Birds Nest Soup shark fins and seaweed stew. He also mentions that a great crowd of American missionaries came on board to visit the ship while it was in port in Canton. In early 1874 the Hartford was in Yokohama. He and some of his shipmates toured Osaka and Nagasaki. In August he records what he was told was the most severe typhoon ever to hit Nagasaki with nearly every building in the city suffering some damage. In early 1875 he visited the Chinese Arsenal in Canton where he watched them making Remington and Spencer rifles "on a mammoth scale" 8-foot rifles requiring three men to fire them plus the manufacture of gatling guns and torpedos. While aboard the Hartford Bartlett received an appointment as a Judge Advocate and was often called upon to be one of the judges for the General Courts Martial which took place on board. The Hartford was ordered home in mid-1875. The ship stopped at Tripoli in August on its return trip and the Consul came on board complaining of his ill treatment by a group of Egyptian sailors and demanding help. Bartlett says: "I think the whole matter will be quietly settled in a few days. Our Consul is a Frenchman from New Orleans a quick fiery fellow and no doubt much to blame for the course he has pursued. He got himself in trouble only a year ago and stands in a very bad order with the Egyptian Government." Bartlett returned to the United States married in November 1875 and took a stateside post in Washington DC for a time. His wife Edith died in June 1877. By 1883 he takes up his journal again to record a final overseas posting this time aboard the USS Trenton. Bartlett records the ship's itinerary from Naples to Rome through the Suez Canal and on to Bombay Formosa and Nagasaki. In June 1884 the USS Trenton is in port in Seoul Korea. The ship provided an escort for the US minister General Foote to visit Seoul at the invitation of the King of Korea. Although Bartlett was not a member of the escort detail he did do some sightseeing around the city. He toured the grounds of the New Palace which had been partially destroyed by fire several years before and where the local population felt superstitious about living. Bartlett also continued his service as a Judge Advocate though in at least one case he was asked by a sailor to defend him in front of the courts martial Laid in is the small broadside printing of the General Court-Martial Order No. 11 dated Yokohama Japan July 29 1884 convincing Passed Asst. Paymaster James A. Ring of drunkenness. The sentence of the court found Ring suspended from rank and duty for two years but allowed to retain his present number on the list of Passed Assistant Paymasters during that time. Evidently Bartlett did a good job defending Ring. The printed broadside notes "the sentence is deemed by the Revising Authority as altogether inadequate to the offence but is approved in order that the offender may not entirely escape punishment." Bartlett records in his private journal that Ring was very grateful to him and presented him with a "very handsome present" as payment a Heizen Teapot cup and saucer. The USS Trenton was again called back to Seoul in December 1884. Both the Chinese and the Japanese were contending for influence in Korea. Early in December word had arrived of an insurrection in Seoul with a number of the Japanese-backed Korean Cabinet killed by anti-government Chinese troops. The US minister General Lucius Foote sent word that he needed protection and assistance and the USS Trenton was dispatched to his aid. Arriving in Chemul'po on Dec. 18 two officers and a detachment of ten men left the ship armed with 2000 rounds of cartridges and six days of rations to act as a guard for the US Consulate and escort Gen. and Mrs. Foote to safety. Rumors about the fate of some of the Korean government officials were abundant - Min Yong Ik was brutally attacked and there appeared to have been a slaughter of all Japanese found in the city. U.S. Naval Attache George Faulk was away in Fusan but the sailors successfully got the General and his wife aboard ship. Tensions in the region continued for most of the rest of the USS Trenton's time on the Asia Station. The ship sailed for home in June 1886 arriving back in the United States in September. Bartlett continued to serve in the Marine Corps taking a post at the Naval Academy in Annapolis Maryland in April 1887 in command of the Marine Corps Barracks there. He retired in 1898. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetery. Bartlett also compiled some 80pp. of notes and lists at the back of the journal including names of Americans he knew or met in Shanghai China Japan and Hong Kong lists of the "open ports" of Japan and China lists of officers aboard the Hartford the Contoocook the Sacramento plus the occasional recipe for curry or milk punch. <br/><br/> hardcover books

First edition 12mo pp. xi 2 134-148; bound without Physiognomy a Poem by Joseph Bartlett Portsmouth: printed by William Treadwell 1810 pp. 19 1; contemporary calf-backed marbled boards; last gathering extended; good and sound. It has been asumed by some including me that Physiognomy a Poem was issued with Aphorisms. The contemporary binding on this copy with no evidence of any removal belies that assumption. The book is dedicated "To all my enemies . I now most humbly supplicate that you would take this little volume into your malignant keeping I pray you to oppose it do all you can to destroy it . don't fear my anger or my vengeance be inattentive to my mortification and be regardless of my distress: I know your goodness your friendship and attachment and rest assured that your most vigorous opposition and your most virulent slander will be duly appreciated and receive the proper acknowledgment."

Bound with: Canadian Scenery Illustrated. Original quarter roan gilt-lettered in decorated publisher's boards; occassional spotting to edges of plates. A rare set of the two works issued together and assembled from the original parts. A most appealing set of an illustrated classic here in extended form with both the separate American and Canadian publications issued in this form as one continuous work numbered as a coherent series on the bindings. The series in this form includes over 200 steel-engraved images. The publisher's charming binding is in particularly good condition. "The New World of Columbus.its sudden rise to independence wealth and power" Author's preface is captured in this Victorian publication on the United States and "British America" Canada with fine engravings after the noted British landscape painter William Henry Bartlett. This is a wonderful illustrated romp published at a time to illustrate the last days of relative freedom of the North American native peoples Willis cites Blumenbach in analysing the "real character of the aboriginal inhabitant" and the development of the cities on the West coast of America and unusually Lower Canada. William Bartlett "made four voyages to the United States and Canada.the fruits of which appeared in American Scenery and Canadian Scenery" DNB. The famous plates depict North American cities New York Philadelphia Boston Washington; important buildings such as the U.S. Bank the Capitol and Yale College; bridges parks falls ferries rivers; as well as fine views of Canada through Quebec Montreal Toronto and including Niagara Falls and Thousand Isles. Also included is an engraved portrait of Bartlett a map of the north-eastern United States and Lower Canada. Sabin calls Canadian Scenery "the finest of Mr. Bartlett's works." Willis's "The Literary Department" accompanying letterpress lyrically opines on the picturesque quoting Byron's Childe Harold on sighting Niagara Falls and noting that in America the traveller may imagine "an Eden newly-sprung from the ocean".

Parlor Amusements for the Young Folks.
Boston: James R. Osgood and Company 1875. First Edition. Duodecimo printed wrappers 80 pp. Good; some cover soiling and edgewear to upper cover and spine that includes light chipping. From Preface: The dramatic element exists in a greater or less degree in every mind; for the little child begins to imagine or personate some character at a very early age. The doll is invested with histrionic power and plays many different roles as time goes on; and the love of acting lasts after old age has dulled many other enjoyments. no pleasanter manner of whilling away a long evening can be found than by a simple entertainment in which old and young unite. The chief objection to such performances has been the trouble which attends their preparation. This little book is intended to obviate this difficulty as the scenes are so arranged that the most of them can be performed in any parlor with simple properties and costumes and most of them without study or practice. Every one of them however has been tried before large audiences in hundreds of cities and they are now simplified and arranged for performance by old and young. In the opening chapter proof of the long experience of the manager is given; and the last ones are devoted to games of thought in which new games and old ones in a new dress are presented in the hope that much benefit to the thinking powers may be gained as well as amusement. Contents: Introduction; Hints on Tableaux; Scenes in the Life of Marie Stuart; Elaborate Tableaux; The lily Maid of Astolat; Jarley Wax-Works; The Babes in the Woods; The Magic Mirror; The Miser’s Supper; Love in Ambush; The Sleeping Beauty; Auld Robin Gray; The Mistletoe Bough; Villikens and His Deniah; Charades; Games of Thought; The Mental Index; How Poets Are Made.

Her life began with promise and high expectations but ended tragically due in part to the ambitions of her father and the religious strife of the times. The great-granddaughter of Henry VII Grey was named the successor to Edward VI during a tumultuous competition for the throne. She was deposed as Queen of England by Mary Tudor Derby & Miller unknown books
