Schoonover From Foreword THE story of Yankee ship voyages in thedays when the great merchants of BostonSalem and other New England seaportswere sending out their vessels westward around Cape Horn to the Northwest Coast and the Pacific Islands and eastward around the Cape of Good Hope to India Sumatra Java and China is a chronicle filled with the most amazing adventures on sea and shore. Pirates of yellow or brown skin infested the wafers of the East Indies the Fiji Islanders were cannibals and enjoyed making "Salem stew" China except for the port of Canton was forbidden to foreigners; yet Yankee captains dared all perils in theirquest for markets and frequently by native shrewdness and sheer audacity won rich cargoes and brought them safely home.There is a foundation of fact underlying most of the adventures related in this book; either the stories are based on actual happenings or are of events that might well have taken place in those days when there were so many Salem pepper ships off the coast of Sumatra that the Malays "believied Salem to be a country by itself and one of the richest and most important sections of the globe GARDEN CITY PUBL CO hardcover‎

‎Observations on the Small Pox: or An Essay to discover a more Effectual Method of Cure‎

‎4 p.l. xix 164 pp. 8vo cont. mottled calf by John Brindley single gilt fillet round sides the four corners of each cover elaborately gilt with Brindley's characteristic dolphins surmounted by crowns within circular wreaths spine divided into six compartments five of which with the golden fleece device in gilt green morocco lettering piece in remaining compartment. London: J. Brindley 1728. First edition; an extraordinary "illuminated" copy with the title-page initials and section headings all heightened in gold and bound by John Brindley bookbinder to Frederick Prince of Wales and Queen Caroline. The initials along with the vignettes and typographical ornaments at the beginning and end of each chapter have also been skillfully decorated in blue red and yellow. This remarkable book with all the decorations contemporary comes from the library at Marble Hill House the Palladian villa constructed 1724-29 at Twickenham which was built by Henrietta Howard ca. 1688-1767 countess of Suffolk and mistress of George II. Pope helped design the gardens and he Gay and George Berkeley were frequent visitors. Henrietta Howard was an intimate of Queen Caroline who encouraged the countess in her sexual relationship with King George II. The present book is dedicated to Queen Caroline and clearly there is some connection because of its special illuminations and binding between the Queen and Henrietta Howard. Could this have been the Queen's copy or one specially prepared for her close and useful friend This book was printed by William Bowyer and his records show that 350 ordinary copies and 150 large-paper copies were printed. Richard Holland 1688-1730 was born in London and educated at St. Catharine's College Cambridge where he received his M.D. in 1723. He became a fellow of the College of Physicians in 1725 and was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1726. This is his only book which provides many case histories. A fine and special copy. With a contemporary inscription on the leaf facing the title "Removed from Marble Hill House." Later engraved bookplate of M. General Sir Charles Stewart. This copy was sold Sotheby's 20 July 1959 part of lot 749. &#10087; ODNB for Holland and Howard. unknown books‎

‎Dan’s Best Enemy: Another Year at School with the Hero of “Reardon Rah!â€‎

‎New York: Benziger Brothers 1924. Octavo green illustrated cloth hardcover 224 pp. Good with edgewear that includes fraying to edges of spine penny sized chip to spine. Photographs gladly provided upon request. From story: Saturday afternoon at three o’clock on September the fifteenth is very likely to be hot in the City of Washington. More likely to be hot than cool too if you are a boy of fifteen years old and have not had your hair cut for over a month and are now sitting in the barber-chair actually going through the agony. Sometimes the clippers pull; the barber pushes your head this way and pokes it that way; hair gets down your back; a fly lights on the end of your nose and with your hands under the cloth how can you knock him off Of course you cannot -- he has to stay there as long as he wants because if you wiggle your head the barber will growl at you to keep still! Yes; it is just wonderful fun to have your hair cut when the thermometer registers around eighty-five degrees in the shade! If you do not believe it just ask Dan Reardon of Botolph High Washington D. C. as he sits there sweltering on this September fifteenth at three o’clock Saturday afternoon. But take the consequences if you ask him that’s all! No Dan Reardon was in no humor to have anybody begin teasing him at that moment you may be sure! Benziger Brothers, 1924. hardcover books‎
