(Pullen, Henry William); Nast, Thomas.
THE FIGHT AT DAME EUROPA'S SCHOOL: SHOWING HOW THE GERMAN BOY THRASHED THE FRENCH BOY, AND HOW THE ENGLISH BOY LOOKED ON.
pp. 34, (2) [Advertisements]. Soiled. Thin 12 mo. Original full cloth binding; worn at head of spine. Early manuscript ownerships of C. G. Van Gelden, Clarks Ferry, PA. Satirical commentary on the era of the Franco-Prussian War, with 33 characteristic Nast cartoon illustrations. It is an allegorical story of Europe and the major European powers represented as school boys: William [William I], the German boy with his sly friend Mark [Bismarck; Louis [Napoleon III], the French boy; and John [Bull or Russell], the English boy. Aleck was a monitor as was Joseph. Nicholas, a boy who had been in the school but who had made an unprovoked attack on a quiet but dirty boy (Constantine) subsequently left. This story is of how William tried to overrun much of Louis' garden claiming that it was in defense of his Fatherland while John stood by. Dame Europa punished them all. American laughed. W145 Stack

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

[Sterne, Laurence].
A SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY THROUGH FRANCE AND ITALY. BY MR. YORICK.
200 p. + Six interesting plates, engraved by W. Bromley after drawings by M. Archer. 16 mo. 150 mm. Attractive 1860's binding by Malet (?); morocco leather backed marbled boards; raised bands. Laurence Sterne (1713-1768) was an Irish-born English novelist and an Anglican clergyman. A Sentimental Journey was one of his most popular works. In 1765 Sterne traveled through France and Italy as far south as Naples, and after returning determined to describe his travels from a sentimental point of view (as an answer to Tobias Smollett's decidedly unsentimental Travels). First published in 1768 (a couple of weeks before Sterne died), it helped establish travel writing as the dominant genre of the second half of the 18th century. Unlike prior travel accounts which stressed classical learning and objective non-personal points of view, A Sentimental Journey emphasized the subjective discussions of personal taste and sentiments - manners and morals over classical learning. This lovely little edition is rather scarce. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! Small Box 1
