rif. 3726180New York. October 18 1887. 1p. Large 8vo single sheet. AMQS. Transmittal folds light creases; very good. Martin Luther Holbrook 1831–1902 was a 19th-century physician health reformer and advocate of vegetarianism who warned against unhealthy “flesh-eaters.” He authored and published numerous medical works under his own name. These titles represent only a small sample of his output: Parturition without pain; a code of directions for escaping from the primal curse 1871; Dr. Holbrook’s American Cookery 1881; Homo-culture; or The improvement of offspring through wiser generation 1899; and Hygiene of the Brain and Nerves and the Cure of Nervousness. 1878 among others. This 1887 AMQS finds Holbrook addressing the question “What is Wisdom” His answer is to “. go along the lines which Nature has worked out” invoking Ralph Waldo Emerson and the well-known phrase about “hitching your load to a star.” For Holbrook those who accept Nature’s forces help themselves by allowing themselves to be helped naturally. He concludes “To seek wisdom then is to see to use wisely nature’s forces.” unknown
1968rif. 113121968. Hunt George P. Life magazine issue concerning Martin Luther King Jr. April 1968 a contemporary illustrated publication documenting the death and public commemoration of the civil rights leader following his assassination in Memphis Tennessee on April 4. King's murder at the Lorraine Motel ended a career that had placed nonviolent direct action desegregation voting rights and economic justice at the center of the postwar Civil Rights Movement and the national illustrated press became an important medium through which Americans encountered both his death and his legacy. Life's April 12 1968 issue carried King on its cover and devoted a photographic feature to his life and assassination while the magazine returned to the subject the following week with expanded coverage of the funeral and its aftermath. Life. Chicago: Time Inc. April 1968. Complete issue approximately 11 x 14 inches; unsigned. The magazine belongs to Life's distinctive tradition of large-format photojournalism through which photographs and illustrated reporting brought major political and social events into American homes. The documented April 12 issue Vol. 64 No. 15 included a feature on King describing him as a major civil rights leader and presenting photographs associated with his death in Memphis; museum cataloging records an approximate physical size of 13½ x 10½ inches closely corresponding to the measurements supplied for this copy. Because the exact day of publication is not supplied for the present copy the specific April issue and its internal articles should be confirmed from the magazine itself before assigning the April 12 or April 19 date. Produced during the immediate aftermath of King's assassination the issue has research value as evidence of how one of the nation's most influential mass-circulation picture magazines framed his death for a broad American readership. Its proximity to the event distinguishes it from later commemorative publications preserving the visual and editorial language through which King's assassination entered contemporary public memory. Minor wear to spine; otherwise no specific defects noted; overall near fine. A substantial contemporary periodical source for the study of Martin Luther King Jr. the Civil Rights Movement African American history photojournalism and the national response to political assassination. unknown

1956rif. 89897New York: Macmillan 1956. Revised Edition Third Printing. Hardcover. Very good. 5 xiv 835 5 pages. Illustrations Bibliographical Notes Index. Frank Luther Mott goes through each distinct period of time from 1690 "The Beginners" all the way to "Journalism in the 1940s." Each section goes into depth on his political climates of journalism and many personal histories of individual journalists. Each section features illustrations and snapshots of history to connect the reader to the varied contents of each. Frank Luther Mott April 4 1886 – October 23 1964 was an American academic historian and journalist who won the 1939 Pulitzer Prize for History for Volumes II and III of his series A History of American Magazines. Journalism in the United States began humbly and became a political force in the campaign for American independence. Following independence the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteed freedom of the press and freedom of speech. The American press grew rapidly following the American Revolution. The press became a key support element to the country's political parties but also for organized religious institutions. During the 19th century newspapers began to expand and appear outside the cities of the Eastern United States. From the 1830s onward the penny press began to play a major role in American journalism. Technological advancements such as the telegraph and faster printing presses in the 1840s helped expand the press of the nation as it experienced rapid economic and demographic growth. By 1900 major newspapers had become profitable powerhouses of advocacy muckraking and sensationalism along with serious and objective news-gathering. In the 1920s technological change again changed American journalism as radio began to play a new role followed by television in the 1950s and internet in the 1990s. Macmillan hardcover
