1842rif. 91013London: Ordered by the House of Commons to be printed 1842. 1st ed. Hardcover. Good because of fragile repaired map. 2 vols. 4 folding maps 3 in Part I and one in Part II xxvi 744 637p. Contemporary 1/2 leather with marbled boards. Covers intact but rather heavily scuffed and rubbed. Bookplates removed on both front pastedowns. Contents generally sound and clean although the large folding map of the coast of West Africa in Part Volume II is fragile. That map had split apart along many of the original folds and elsewhere. While it had been carefully put back together it needs careful handling when folding or unfolding to keep nthe map intact. These volumes contain a wealth of material about British trade and administrative activities in Gambia Sierra Leone and Gold Coast the three areas of particular British interest and control in West Africa at that time -- Lagos and other pieces of what is now modern Nigeria were still outside British influence and control in 1842 and Benin hadn't yet been grabbed by Germany before passing to Great Britain after World War I. These volumes also contain quite a bit of information about British efforts to suppress and end the slave trade. Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be printed hardcover
1918rif. 165701918. Representation of the People Act 1918 1918 documents the statutory transformation of British electoral democracy at the close of the First World War granting parliamentary voting rights to women over thirty who met property qualifications while extending the franchise to men over twenty-one. The Act records the legal mechanism by which decades of women's suffrage agitation entered parliamentary law revealing how electoral reform operated through age sex residence and property qualifications and providing primary-source evidence for the study of women's political rights wartime citizenship and the expansion of representative government in Britain. Representation of the People Act 1918. 8 Geo. 5. Ch. 64. London: Printed by Percy Lund Humphries & Co. Ltd. for Norman Gibb Scorgie C.V.O. C.B.E. Controller of His Majesty's Stationery Office and King's Printer of Acts of Parliament 1918. First edition. 161 pages. Original paper wrappers. 9.5 x 6 inches. The printed Act sets out the revised parliamentary franchise registration procedures voting rules redistribution provisions and related administrative structures that governed the enlarged electorate. Its significance lies not only in the admission of approximately 8.5 million women to the electorate but also in the unequal structure of that admission: women's voting rights remained restricted by age and qualification while men received a broader franchise. Passed after a long suffrage campaign that included constitutional lobbying mass organizing civil disobedience imprisonment and militant protest the Act marked a decisive but incomplete victory for women's suffrage in the United Kingdom. Original wrappers with expected minor handling wear; internally sound very good. A major parliamentary document for the study of women's suffrage postwar citizenship and the legal architecture of modern British electoral reform. unknown
