1894réf. 57846Boston: B. B. Russell Co 1894. 8vo pp. 3 6-319 1; printed self-wrappers rear wrapper wanting; spine largely perished; stitching sound. Title page inscribed "with love and best wishes of the author." Originally published by J. Howard Brown Co. circa 1882 with the subtitle A story of the blighting curse of polygamy. "The practice of plural marriage commonly known as polygamy stirred intense controversy in postbellum America until 1890 when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints first officially abolished the practice. Elder Northfield's Home published by A. Jennie Bartlett in 1882 is both a staunchly antipolygamy novel and a call for the sentimental repatriation of polygamy's victims. Her book traces the fate of a virtuous and educated English immigrant woman Marion Wescott who marries a Mormon elder Henry Northfield. Shocked when her husband violates his promise not to take a second wife Marion attempts to flee during the night toddler son in her arms and pulling her worldly possessions in his toy wagon. She returns to her husband however and the balance of the novel traces the effects of polygamy on Marion Henry and their children; their eventual rejection of plural marriage; and their return to a normal and healthy family structure."

1810réf. 55963Portsmouth N.H.: printed at the Oracle Office 1810. First edition 12mo pp. xi 2 134-148; bound without Physiognomy a Poem by Joseph Bartlett Portsmouth: printed by William Treadwell 1810 pp. 19 1; contemporary calf-backed marbled boards; last gathering extended; good and sound. It has been asumed by some including me that Physiognomy a Poem was issued with Aphorisms. The contemporary binding on this copy with no evidence of any removal belies that assumption. The book is dedicated "To all my enemies . I now most humbly supplicate that you would take this little volume into your malignant keeping I pray you to oppose it do all you can to destroy it . don't fear my anger or my vengeance be inattentive to my mortification and be regardless of my distress: I know your goodness your friendship and attachment and rest assured that your most vigorous opposition and your most virulent slander will be duly appreciated and receive the proper acknowledgment."

Bound with: Canadian Scenery Illustrated. Original quarter roan gilt-lettered in decorated publisher's boards; occasional spotting to edges of plates. A rare set of the two works issued together and assembled from the original parts.

The series in this form includes over 200 steel-engraved images. The publisher's charming binding is in particularly good condition. "The New World of Columbus.its sudden rise to independence wealth and power" Author's preface is captured in this Victorian publication on the United States and "British America" Canada with fine engravings after the noted British landscape painter William Henry Bartlett. This is a wonderful illustrated romp published at a time to illustrate the last days of relative freedom of the North American native peoples Willis cites Blumenbach in analyzing the "real character of the aboriginal inhabitant" and the development of the cities on the West coast of America and unusually Lower Canada. William Bartlett "made four voyages to the United States and Canada.the fruits of which appeared in American Scenery and Canadian Scenery" DNB. The famous plates depict North American cities New York Philadelphia Boston Washington; important buildings such as the U.S. Bank the Capitol and Yale College; bridges parks falls ferries rivers; as well as fine views of Canada through Quebec Montreal Toronto and including Niagara Falls and Thousand Isles. Also included is an engraved portrait of Bartlett a map of the north-eastern United States and Lower Canada. Sabin calls Canadian Scenery "the finest of Mr. Bartlett's works." Willis's "The Literary Department" accompanying letterpress lyrically opines on the picturesque quoting Byron's Childe Harold on sighting Niagara Falls and noting that in America the traveler may imagine "an Eden newly-sprung from the ocean".

1850réf. 287457London: Peter Jackson Late Fisher Son & Co. The Caxton Press 1850. Half Leather. Very Good binding. Wright and Buckingham’s historical descriptions of various places in Belgium the Rhine Italy Greece and the Shores and Islands of the Mediterranean with engraved illustrations by various artists. Complete with two volumes bound in one. Vol. I is complete with all 73 plates called for in the ‘Contents’ though “Great Canal and Antique Gothic House” or “Ghent” is bound in at Vol. II p. 58 and “The City of Catania and Mount Etna” is bound in near Vol. II p. 152. Vol. II is lacking pp. 25-32 and pp. 49-56 and also lacks the eight plates that would have been in those two signatures. This is quite possibly a binder’s error as there does not appear to be any explicit damage to the textblock at those locations; the binder also misplaces a number of plates though most of these errors are simply a few pages off. Vol. I with all 73 plates. Vol. II with 73 of the 81 plates. Altogether with 146 of the 154 plates which includes the frontispieces and additional title pages engraved.
