1869réf. 35984Boston: Bradlee Whidden 1869. Folio. 15 chromolithographic plates after Frederic Remington A.B. Frost Fred Cozzens R.F. Zogbaum Henry Sandham and others. 32 ff. letterpress. Expertly bound to style in full dark purple straight grained morocco. A rare large-format work on sport in late 19th-century America including Frederic Remington's first two published prints in color a rare A.B.Frost image of deer-hunting and images from Fred. S.Cozzens and other top illustrators of the day. The present work includes six angling plates three of fly-fishing four plates of game-bird hunting and five of hunting larger game. Each of the fifteen subjects is first described in general terms on a single leaf of text followed by a second leaf giving a first-hand account of catching or shooting the subject followed by a chromolithograph illustrating the first-hand account. According to Gould's preface the plates are all from water-colours especially commissioned for the work which were subjected to the critical scrutiny of a group of anglers/sportsmen who judged them for technical accuracy. The plates are as follows: 1. Killing the Salmon. Henry Sandham. 2. A Moose hunt. Henry Sandham. 3. Trout fishing. Henry Sandham. 4. Fly-fishing for Black Bass. S.F. Denton. 5. Hunting Antelope i.e. Prong-horn. Frederic Remington. 6. Catching a Tarpon. Fred. S. Cozzens. 7. Mallard shooting. S.F. Denton. 8. Catching a Mascalonge. Frank H. Taylor. 9. A Wild Turkey hunt. R.J. Zogbaum. 10. Sailing for Bluefish. Fred S.Cozzens. 11. Hunting the Virginia Deer. A.B. Frost. 12. A day with the Prairie Chickens. R.F. Zogbaum. 13. A hunt above the timber-line Big-horn. Edward Knobel. 14. Canada Goose shooting. Frederic Remington. 15. Stalking the Wapiti. Henry Sandham. The two plates by Frederic Remington Hunting Antelope Hassrick & Webster 434 and Goose Shooting Hassrick & Webster 435 are also listed by Peggy and Harold Samuels Remington The Complete Prints New York 1990 pp.152-3 with the comment that they are the first and second Remington prints to appear in color. They were preceded only by a series of four monochrome photogravures for John Muir's Picturesque California 1888 and two other individual prints both black and white. Arthur Burdett Frost is now perhaps best known for his sporting pictures and prints but an aversion to deer-hunting meant that he rarely pictured shooting scenes that featured anything other than small game. His image Hunting the Deer is recorded and illustrated in Henry M.Reed's The A.B.Frost Book Charleston 1993 pp.101 104-5 but the author was apparently unaware that it was issued as part of the present work which is not included in the extensive appendix of books illustrated by Frost.

1882réf. 28652Washington: text: Government Printing Office atlas: Julius Bien & Co. of New York for the Government Printing Office 1882. 2 volumes quarto text and folio atlas. Text: 2xiv264pp. plus forty-two plates plans and maps including two chromolithographed views by Sinclair after Holmes seventeen wood-engraved views eight after Thomas Moran nine after Holmes four "Heliotype" plates ten double-page. Atlas: 2title leaf1p. letterpress text otherwise lithographed throughout with twelve double-page map-sheets after Dutton eleven printed in colors ten double-page sheets of views after Holmes 9 and Moran 1 five chromolithographed and five printed in tints all printed by Julius Bien & Co. Short horizontal tear to outer margin of one leaf pp.101-02 slightly longer tears to outer margins of pp.165-66 and pp.245-46 just touching a few words. Repaired tear to front blank of atlas volume a few instances of minor marginal thumb-soiling. Publisher's cloth gilt atlas rebacked with original cloth laid down. Spine ends of text volume chipped with a few small nicks to the cloth along the joints spine lightly sunned corners rubbed "One of the grandest publications of the scientific expeditions in the American West. depicting the Grand Canyon in a series of magnificent panoramas" Reese & Miles. `Depicting America.' The work includes illustrations by arguably the two greatest American topographical artists to record this era of westward expansion: William Holmes and Thomas Moran. The atlas includes eight beautifully executed maps of the region on twelve sheets as well as the ten sheets of views. The views include a number of images that are designed to form larger continuous panoramas. The greatest of these is Holmes' view from Point Sublime in the Kaibab; the three chromolithographed sheets numbered XVI-XVII if joined would form a single panoramic view with an image area measuring approximately 17 x 90 inches. It is interesting to note that the first of these sheets includes what may be a self-portrait and portrait respectively of Holmes and Dutton: two figures are visible at the edge of the canyon one is seated and clearly sketching Holmes whilst the second figure bends down to examine his companion's work Dutton. W.H. Holmes whom William Goetzmann calls "the greatest artist-topographer and man of many talents that the West ever produced.his artistic technique was like no other's. He could sketch panoramas of twisted mountain ranges sloping monoclines escarpments plateaus canyons fault blocks and grassy meadows that accurately depicted hundreds of miles of terrain. They were better than maps and better than photographs because he could get details of stratigraphy that light and shadow obscured from the camera.his illustrations for Dutton's Tertiary History of the Grand Canon District are masterpieces of realism and draftsmanship as well as feats of imaginative observation." The team assembled to carry out this geological survey of the Grand Canyon included some outstanding talents: C.E.Dutton the scientist; Jack Hilliers the photographer and of course Holmes and Moran as artist-topographers. The intention of the survey was strictly scientific but as Dutton writes in his preface "I have in many places departed from the severe ascetic style which has become conventional in scientific monographs." This is also true of Moran and Holmes: both were clearly inspired by their subjects. The overall result is of a quality that would not be possible today. As Wallace Stegner wrote in his introduction to the 1977 reprint "Later specialization has eliminated from scientific publications most of the elements that make The Tertiary History so charming. No report written as this one is written would now be published by any government bureau. No illustrators like Moran and Holmes would be permitted to illustrate it. A great book. The Tertiary History has kept its value precisely because it does not specialize." Francis P.

1813réf. 1233158vo in 4s. London: R. Ackermann 1813. 8vo in 4s 4 xv 1 blank 215 1 blank pp. Twenty-one hand-colored aquatint plates including frontispiece. Full crushed red morocco by Riviere covers gilt-ruled backstrip with five raised bands paneled in gilt gilt dentelles green coated endpapers all edges gilt. Joints lightly worn some offsetting from the plates a very good copy. § First edition. "The originals of the plates introduced in this volume were sketches made as souvenirs of the place during a visit to Scarborough 1812. They were not intended for publication but being found to interest many persons of taste several of whom expressed a desire to possess engravings of them and some gentlemen having offered to add metrical illustrations to each the present form of publication has been adopted. The several authors were not personally acquainted with each other" Advertisement. A delightfully silly satire on fashionable life at the seaside in Regency England perhaps better known to us today through the novels of Jane Austen. In later years Scarborough became a favorite place of Anne Brontë who was prescribed the spa waters and sea air for her tuberculosis and who died there in 1849. The versified descriptions of the spa the castle the ball room and sea-bathing among other things were here published anonymously; in the second edition the authors were identified as W. Coombe J. B. Papworth and F. Wrangham. "Plate 8 'The Warm Bath' is said to contain the portrait of Mrs. Robinson George IV's mistress" Tooley. Abbey Scenery 297. Tooley 422. R. Ackermann hardcover books
