1787ref. 162443London: Printed by Charles Eyre and Andrew Strahan 1787 i.e. 1788. Among the earliest Parliamentary responses to the British slave trade First edition of the first British law to regulate slave shipping preserved in its original volume of yearly parliamentary acts. The law bound 54th in this volume pioneered techniques of popular abolitionist appeal. The Slave Trade Act 1788 limited the number of enslaved persons that could be transported on British ships. It also required that all ships carried a doctor to monitor the conditions of the enslaved persons. The Act was supported through Parliament by Sir William Dolben 1727-1814 and Charles Stanhope 1753-1816. LoGerfo notes of their campaign that "the machinery used to appeal to the literate public would also be used in the future" p. 450. This volume collects 57 acts passed by the 16th Parliament of Great Britain which met from November 1787 to July 1788 and was led by Pitt the Younger. Like all Parliamentary statutes of this period the Slave Trade Act was separately printed with a general title page for inclusion in the yearly volumes of acts. Most of these statutes were printed with their own title pages included in the signatures and pagination - here all such pages have been removed. These laws were printed in limited numbers usually estimated at around 1100 copies only. The volume includes laws against chimney sweeps and child labour and measures to compensate dispossessed American loyalists in the years after the Revolution. Folio 304 x 191 mm pp. 1012 = 900 title pages of individual acts removed. Woodcut device to title page woodcut head- tailpieces and initials to contents. Contemporary quarter sheep spine lettered and with black morocco label in gilt marbled paper sides. Bumping and wear minor loss to spine ends joints cracked but holding firm slight browning and foxing to endpapers and contents slight marking to edges: a good copy.

'Samuel Franklin Cowdery was born in 1867 in Davenport Iowa was a Wild West showman and early pioneer of manned flight. He changed his name to Cody at age 21 when he was part of a touring Wild West show not to be confused with that of Buffalo Bill Cody. He is most famous for his work on the large kites known as Cody War-Kites that were used by the British in World War I as a smaller alternative to balloons for artillery spotting. Financed by his Wild West shows Cody's unusual interest in manned kites advanced significantly when he enlarged upon Lawrence Hargrave's double-cell box kite to increase its lifting power especially by adding wings on either side. He patented his design in 1901 and it became known as the Cody kite. Cody eventually managed to interest the British Army in his kites. In 1906 he was appointed Chief Instructor of Kiting for the Balloon School in Aldershot and soon after joined the new Army Balloon Factory down the road at Farnborough. The Factory would eventually become the Royal Aircraft Establishment. In 1908 the War Office officially adopted Cody's kites for the Balloon Companies he had been training. This group would in due course evolve into the Air Battalion of the Royal Engineers No. 1 Company of which later became No. 1 Squadron Royal Flying Corps and eventually No. 1 Squadron Royal Air Force. During 1907 he was given full authority as the designer of the the British governments dirigible understructure and propulsion system. On 5 October 1907 Britain's first powered airship British Army Dirigible No 1 and using Cody's engine the Nulli Secundus flew from Farnburough to London. In 1907 the British Army decided to back the development of Cody's powered aeroplane the British Army Aeroplane No 1. His flight of 16 October 1908 is recognized as the first official flight of a piloted heavier-than-air machine in Great Britain. He went on to win a number of aeronautical awards and started developing his own aircraft company. That company produced the Cody Flyer a monoplane for which this pamphlet was issued. On 7 August 1913 he was test flying his latest design the Cody Floatplane when it broke up at 200 feet and he and his passenger the cricketer William Evans were killed' Nat DesMarais Rare Books. The 1908 British Army Aeroplane No.1 was actually Cody's biplane sometimes called Cody 1 later officialy referred to as The Cody Flyer. 'On 16 October at Farnborough it made what is recognised officially as the first sustained powered flight in Great Britain by a heavier-than-air machine covering 423.7m before crash-landing' Virtual Aircraft Museum online.Library Hub locates a single copy in the National Aerospace Library. unknown
