Group shot of a party of twenty-three men emerging from the Bonanza Mines with their oil lamps. The party consisted of members of a delegation of Frenchmen who toured the United States in 1881 to mark the centennial of the battle of Yorktown VA the French and American armies having played a pivotal role in the siege against the British forces. A contemporary newspaper article from November 1881 noted that the French delegation had disbanded but that a smaller party of its members still intended to travel west "to study American life and manners on the frontiers of civilization." Presumably these men are from that party photographed by the young local photographer John S. Noe who died eight years later aged forty-four of dropsy. John S. Noe unknown

1796réf. ST20740Philadelphia: Printed by Matthew Carey 1796. 165 x 102 mm. 6 1/2 x 4". 95 pp. Late 19th century brown half roan over marbled boards smooth spine divided into panels by gilt fillets each with gilt daisy red morocco label marbled endpapers. Sabin 102386; Evans 31599; ESTC W28973. Very light rubbing to joints and extremities mild foxing throughout but unusually clean and bright for a book printed on 18th century American paper and in a convincing retrospective binding showing almost no wear. This is a very pleasing copy of a work that demonstrates an important early American lexicographer's philosophy toward the impact of language. After graduating from Yale and briefly studying law Noah Webster 1758-1843 established an elementary school and discovered the need for spelling and grammar books in the new country. According to ANB "Webster believed that the new nation needed a feeling of identity a consciousness of self that bound it together and distinguished it from others. Not surprisingly Webster concluded that this revolution of mind and heart should begin with children and with the acquisition of books that would reflect the American language culture and history." He produced textbooks on spelling and grammar as well as his famous dictionary a book PMM tells us "marked a definite advance in modern lexicography." In the present work Webster goes beyond the words themselves into a concern with their usage telling us in the preface that he is attempting "to find the method of writing calculated to do the most general good" in society. The author serves as "prompter" giving lines to "the numerous actors upon the great theatre of life"--that is providing discussion on "common sayings" to help improve writers and by extension the "world at large." "The Prompter" was published anonymously in Hartford Connecticut in 1791 and enjoyed considerable popularity in New England well into the 19th century. Webster revealed his authorship in a 1796 advertisement in the federalist newspaper "American Minerva" which he had helped to found and edited from 1793-98. Our copy in a pleasing replica binding and quite fine condition internally is particularly appealing since many copies that have appeared on the market are in the condition expected of a book meant for the schoolroom.
