(COLOR PLATES - TRAVEL AND VIEWS, RHINE, MEUSE, MOSELLE RIVERS). STANFIELD, CLARKSON
SKETCHES ON THE MOSELLE THE RHINE AND THE MEUSE
London: Hodgson & Clark 1838. FIRST EDITION. 560 x 380 mm. 22 x 15". 1 p.l. lithograph dedication and table of contents 1 leaf ads. <br/> Apparently unrestored publisher's red quarter morocco over pink watered silk boards flat spine gilt titling on front cover and spine marbled endpapers. WITH 30 VERY FINE SCENIC COLOR LITHOGRAPHS lithograph title and 29 views on 25 plates by T. S. Boys W. Gauci A. Picken and L. Haghe all with original thick tissue guards. Abbey Travel 32; Hardie "English Coloured Books" p. 247. ◆Covers a little soiled and with minor evidence of insect activity corners rather bumped but the original binding without major problems and still surprisingly solid for such a large picture book. Faint stains to free endpapers a few additional trivial defects but VERY FINE INTERNALLY THE PLATES ESPECIALLY CLEAN AND FRESH WITH CONSISTENTLY BRIGHT COLORING.<br/> <br/> Composed of idyllic renderings of views along the great Belgian and German rivers noted in the title the picturesque illustrations in this book are the work of Clarkson Frederick Stanfield 1793-1867 a self-taught artist and close friend of Charles Dickens who began his career as a scenic painter for dramatic productions. In addition to the dramatic landscapes castles and ruins depicted here the artist also paints a picture of daily life in the region by illustrating in great detail the activities of peasants laborers and other common folk who lived and worked in the area. Indeed the stories suggested by the characters' interactions--for example a group of women taking a break from their labors to gossip two lovers stealing a quiet moment on a hillside a solitary old woman selling her meager supply of fresh vegetables on the road--are as enchanting as the landscapes themselves. The theatrical qualities of these plates are perhaps no surprise given the artist's background in stagecraft. Stanfield worked his way up from volunteering for amateur theater productions to a paid position at Drury Lane in London's fashionable Covent Garden district. During his 12-year tenure with that theater as DNB tells us "he achieved a legendary reputation as a creator of romantic landscape scenery. . . . Stanfield's work especially 'taught pit and gallery to admire landscape art and the boxes to become connoisseurs' according to his friend W. M. Thackeray." Even after Stanfield left Drury Lane to focus on his paintings and published works the artist continued to paint scenery for Dickens and even supplied illustrations for some of his works of fiction including the "Christmas Books." DNB notes that upon Stanfield's death Dickens wrote "a moving editorial tribute . . . which described him as 'the soul of frankness generosity and simplicity. The most genial the most affectionate . . . and the most lovable of men.'" Intact copies of the present work are quite scarce in the marketplace. Hodgson & Clark unknown

(CONNECTICUT STEAMSHIP TRAVEL)
Autographed Business Letter
New York 1846. unbound. 1 page 10 x 8 inches New York City December 8 1846. In this letter a salesman has booked travel for a favored client: "I have sent for you by the steam boat CHAMPION which leaves here this afternoon for New Haven marked as you directed by Springfield railroad with three kegs of printing ink." An interesting memento from the days when steamships were owned by the wealthy railroads who attempted to monopolize travel and trade. In this case the steamboat Champion actually the New Champion 1846 - 1851 would leave the Port of New York and set sail up the Long Island Sound eventually entering the Connecticut River bound for New Haven. The passenger could choose to sail as far up as Springfield Massachusetts or transfer for the much faster train at New Haven all owned by Hartford & New Haven Railroads. Several folds; small chip in the left margin. Very good condition.<br/> <br/> unknown

(CONSTANTINOPLE - EARLY 19TH CENTURY TRAVEL TO, FACSIMILE PUBLICATION). MELLING, ANTOINE IGNACE
VOYAGE PITTORESQUE DE CONSTANTINOPLE ET DES RIVES DU BOSPHORE. A PICTURESQUE VOYAGE TO CONSTANTINOPLE AND THE SHORES OF THE BOSPHORUS
Bern: Ertug & Kocabiyuk 2002. No. 46 OF 50 SPECIALLY BOUND COPIES of a total edition of 350. 670 x 508 mm. 26 3/8 x 20". 3 p.l. 10 pp. 63 leaves. <br/> Publisher's scarlet morocco by Buchbinderei Burkhardt AG covers with gilt-rolled border cornerpieces tooled in gilt upper cover with gilt calligraphic Arabic centerpiece lower cover with gilt central heraldic device marbled endleaves all edges gilt. With a portrait frontispiece of Emperor Selim III 48 DOUBLE-PAGE PLATES AND THREE DOUBLE-PAGE MAPS. ◆A virtually as-new copy.<br/> <br/> This is one of the deluxe copies of a modern facsimile of Melling's massive and magnificently illustrated work devoted to 18th century Constantinople a book that provided the earliest interior views and plans of the harems and palaces of Sultan Selim III when it was published in 1819. The illustrations remain the best and certainly most attractive record we have of the city during this era in its history. Our edition was produced from a copy of the elephant folio first printing in the collection of the facsimile's publisher Ahmet Ertug with images faithfully reproduced in their original mammoth size 650 x 970 mm. After his arrival in Constantinople in 1795 architect and painter Antoine Ignace Melling 1763-1831 was appointed imperial architect by Selim III. In the course of his duties he designed and landscaped a seaside palace for Selim's sister Princess Hatice and produced these striking panoramic views of the city and its environs. After completing the palace and a number of other building projects for Selim he returned to Paris and in 1804 issued a prospectus for this work. He established an engraving studio in 1809 to reproduce these drawings and began publishing the completed prints as a series of fascicles that were sent to subscribers. The last one appeared in 1819. The outstanding success of an exhibition of the paintings on which the "Voyage Pittoresque" was based earned Melling the rank of painter to the Empress Josephine. When "Voyage Pittoresque" was originally published booksellers in England sold copies for £84 a huge sum for a book at the time. The original edition in pleasing condition now fetches between $75000 and $100000. Our handsomely bound actual size facsimile offers an attractively priced alternative. Ertug & Kocabiyuk unknown

Spine a little rubbed. 22307 pp. and 8159 pp. Textillustrations in woodcut illustrating Cartesian physics and world system. A large copy few marginal brownspots. Previous owners name on fly-leaf Vilhelm Maar Danish historian of medicine. <br/><br/><em>First Latin edition The French original from 1690 Voyage du Monde de Descartes of this imaginary travel to find Descartes on the moon and in the upper spheres. The work is one of the most importent anti-Cartesian polemics of the 1690's and it attacs the whole of Descartes system in a satirical way."It aimes principally at the sharp Cartesian distinction between body and soul related in a satirical fashion the voyage of the disembodied souls of the narrator of Mersanne and of another old friend of Descartes in the upper spheres. On their way to visit Descartes in the third heaven they meet the souls of Aristotle and the disciples of descartes clearly refelcting here the philosophical opinions of Gabriel Daniel himself. One of the articles of that treaty stipulates that the Cartesians will refer to Aristotle with more respect whereas the Aristotelians will refrain from calling Descartes "Enthusiast" "Madman" "Heretick" or "Atheist" - all of these evidently labels commonly used by the opponents of Descartes at that time." Michael Heyd in "Be Sober and Reasonable". The work was published anonymous and earlier sometimes attributed to Daniel Defoe. - </em> hardcover

(Hamilton, Thomas).
MEN AND MANNERS IN AMERICA. By the author of Cyril Thornton.
410 p. Foxed. 8vo. 220 mm. Spine rebacked in black leather. Original boards, worn. First American edition. Hardbound. Good. Scots born Thomas Hamilton (1789-1842) was generally overshadowed by his famous father - William Hamilton (1758-1790), professor of anatomy and botany at Glasgow, and his brother Sir William Hamilton (1788-1856) the metaphysician and antiquary. In 1810, after fully showing, in Glasgow and Liverpool, his incapacity for business, he got a commission in the 29th Regiment. Twice on active service in the Peninsula, he received from a musket bullet, at Albuera, a somewhat serious wound in the thigh. He was also in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick with his regiment, which at length was sent to France as part of the army of occupation. About 1818 Hamilton retired to Edinburgh on half-pay. He became a valued member of the 'Blackwood' writers. Hamilton married in 1820, and for several summers he and his wife lived near Abbotsford, Sir Walter Scott finding them very congenial neighbors and friends. In 1827 he wrote the ten popular novel Cyril Thornton. In 1829 they went to Italy, where Mrs. Hamilton died. Some time after his return, Hamilton visited America, bringing back materials for a this book on the Americans. 'Men and Manners in America' first appeared in 1833. 'Here his fund of humour and his genial satire, characteristics that struck Carlyle in his interviews with him in 1832-3 found scope, but his fun, if occasionally extravagant, was never unfair, nor were his criticisms directed by prejudice or charged with ill-nature.' - DNB. In the book he insightfully comments on all aspects of American culture, industry and government, he frequently expresses fascinating insight into the mores of this country. Especially interesting is his observations on American blacks - both Free and Slave. S&S/AI 19191; Sabin 30035; Howes 4481/H-138. PAIMP 22
