Photographic b/w frontispiece. Spóldzielnia Wydawnicza "Czytelnik." Possibly an earlier publication on lower quality paper compare to a slightly smaller publication by the "Library of the Union of Polish Patriots in the USSR" Biblioteczka Zwiazku Patriotów Polskich w ZSRR with the same text in different layout. That publication issued on higher quality paper and with twenty-eight photogravures three more than in this publication with twelve photographs appearing in both publications though in lesser quality here. Court Proceedings of the Polish-Soviet Special Criminal Court established in Lublin in August 1944 in order to investigate the crimes committed by the Germans in the Majdanek extermination camp. Despite the importance of this document it must be mentioned that the Commission made erroneous assumptions regarding the duration of the camp and the number of people killed at Majdanek. The Publishing cooperative "Czytelnik" was established behind Soviet front lines in 1944. It became the first post-World War II. publisher in Poland. The total numbers of the victims is still controversial: In this report 1.5 million victims of different nationalities were counted however according to the latest researches there were 79000 victims 59000 of whom were Jews See: Kranz T.: "Bookkeeping of Death and Prisoner Mortality at Majdanek." pp. 81-110.

The frontispiece depicts Elizabeth Weldon the prostitute who initiated the suit. In an attempt to extort money she threatened Boyle also known as Viscount Dungarvan due to his Irish properties with a bogus lawsuit. She said she would claim he took money from her clothing after he purchased her services. However Cork called her bluff and eventually prevailed in court. Clearly a salacious case it is presented here as a cautionary tale for "young gentlemen whose levity may bring them into a familiar situation." The reporter warns that it "may not always be in the power even of a man of fashion to refute the plausible tale of an artful woman although a prostitute. It may not always happen that an innocent defendant shall have the same circumstances to protect his honour as my Lord Dungarvan" ii. OCLC locates 2 copies both in law libraries Columbia Harvard.

Housed in attractive custom crimson clamshell box quarter morocco over cloth with raised bands and gilt title to spine. $1250. First and only edition of the official report documenting the "Ferryboat Murder" a landmark case of femininity insanity and Victorian scandal. When Laura Fair discovered her lover Alexander Crittenden had no intention of leaving his wife she fatally shot him aboard a San Francisco ferry in front of his family. The ensuing trial became a national lightning rod for Victorian anxieties regarding the "sanctity of the family" and the legal rights of women. In a pioneering and controversial defense Fair's counsel argued she was a victim of "Moral Mania" a temporary insanity triggered by her menstrual cycle and "nervous prostration." While the suffragist movement championed her as a victim of a patriarchal legal system the public was captivated by the scandalous correspondence printed here in full. This historical drama is explored in depth in Gary Krist's Trespassers at the Golden Gate 2025 which contextualizes the trial within Gilded Age San Francisco. This remains a cornerstone text for the study of 19th-century gender politics and the 'insanity' defense. McDade The Annals of Murder 291.

Moderate toning to interior faint dampstaining to a few leaves early owner inscription "Chas W. Raisbeck/ Malden/ Mass" to head of front wrapper. $1250. Only edition. Edward W. Green the seemingly respectable postmaster of Malden Massachusetts earned a dark place in American history as the nation's first bank robber. Secretly struggling with alcoholism and a shortfall in his post office accounts Green targeted the Malden Bank on December 15 1863. Finding the institution manned solely by Frank Converse the 17-year-old son of the bank's president Green retrieved a gun shot the youth twice in the head and escaped with $5000. The crime was swiftly solved; Green confessed led authorities to the stolen funds and was sentenced to hang. Published during the height of the public furor surrounding Green's trial this highly charged polemic fiercely condemns the bloodlust of the public. The anonymous author writing as "A Citizen of Malden" argues that those demanding Green's execution are betraying the core teachings of Christ. The pamphlet was issued by James Redpath 1833-1891 the prominent journalist radical abolitionist and progressive publisher known for championing social reform and human rights causes. This title is of exceptional rarity. While Thomas M. McDade's definitive bibliography The Annals of Murder records two other contemporary accounts of the Green case items 381 and 382 this specific pamphlet is unrecorded by McDade. Charles William Raisbeck 1829-1872 the former owner of this copy was a bookkeeper and genealogist who split his time between Boston and Malden. Only edition.

First edition. Warren the bishop of Bangor in northwest Wales had appointed his nephew as registrar of the diocese. Since the nephew was underage Samuel Grindley was appointed deputy registrar but when the nephew attempted to replace him he refused to leave his office. A fight broke out between Grindley and Warren with others joining the bishop's side. At one point Grindley threatened Warren with a pistol and the fight did not conclude until the bishop's wife intervened and dragged him away. Erskine was engaged for the defense and secured an acquittal despite the judge's summing-up in favor of conviction. The notes to the half-title and title page remark somewhat disparagingly on the case describing Grindley as "a man of no principle." Williams 1763-1836 was a Welsh Anglican rector in Caernarfonshire.
