1825réf. 57132Hartford: Printed for H. Hudson by W. Hudson and L. Skinner 1825. 1825 Edition of Webster's Immensely Popular Speller with Contemporary Ownership Inscription The 1825 edition of Noah Webster's monumentally important and phenomenally popular American speller originally issued in 1783. The American Spelling Book was Webster's most popular work and went through scores of editions in his lifetime the income from which enabled him to dedicate his efforts to his famous dictionary. The impact of this work should not be underestimated as it became the most common way in which Americans came to learn and understand their own language. The inscription likely that of the original owner and user on the front free endpaper of this copy reads: "Nancy Smith's Book East Haven Jan 24 1826." A well-used but sturdier than usual copy of this book which is often found in tatters. 12mo. Contemporary half calf and paper-covered boards. Paper stained and peeling from boards front board chipped at corners spine rubbed and splitting at head.

1819réf. 63295New York: Published by Kirk and Mercein London: by John Miller 1819. A Notable Jewish-American Diplomat Noah was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. The present account is based on his experiences while in that office in addition to his travels in Europe. Some time after publishing this work he purchased Grand Island in the Niagara River with the intention of establishing a Jewish refuge which he named Ararat. While a number of men and women arrived in Buffalo in September of 1825 for a celebration of the founding of Ararat the proposed settlement did not attract even a single resident and Noah gave up on the venture within days of the ceremony. Noah was notable as one of the first Jewish Americans to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons. This volume prints letters of support from Jefferson Madison and John Adams. The Jefferson letter is particularly famous for its support for fairness to Jewish citizens. Contemporary calf spine ruled in gilt gilt leather label. Binding rubbed and scuffed front board nearly detached holding by upper cord. Frontispiece detached but present closed tear repaired on verso with linen tape.

1790réf. 56704Boston: I. Thomas and E.T. Andrews 1790. William Safire's Copy Noted grammarian and pundit William Safire's copy of the first collection of Noah Webster's writings demonstrating the broad reach of the pioneering lexicographer's genius. Webster's essays touch a variety of topics from the new constitution to the practical reasons why marriage between cousins is discouraged. Of particular note is the presence of many words that are spelled phonetically such as "Guvernment" "Skools" and "Karacter." This editorial decision was in keeping with Webster's growing desire to simplify language and qualify it in American as opposed to British ways by dispensing with unnecessary vowels and misleading consonant pairings such as "ch" for "k". The language experiments played out here demonstrate an important step in Webster's development as lexicographer which would culminate in the publication of Webster's famous dictionary nearly forty years later in 1828. A charming Webster item with a notable linguistics-related provenance having been owned by William Safire the preeminent popular language and grammar expert of the 20th century. Safire was an author journalist and speechwriter who wrote the long-running column "On Language" for the NEW YORK TIMES. An attractive copy by the foundational American language expert owned by the most notable public expert on language in 20th-century America. xvi414pp. Modern half calf and marbled boards with early calf corners laid down on the outer corners spine gilt leather label. Leather bookplate of William Safire on front pastedown with a handful of marginal pencil notations in the text likely in his hand. Mild offsetting on titlepage minor toning. Overall very good.

The Emily Skeel-William Safire Copy of Webster's LETTERS TO A YOUNG GENTLEMAN The Skeel-Safire copy of the first edition of this unusual Webster publication.

Following the letters is a "Summary History of the discovery and settlement of America from the time of English settlement through the American Revolution" "adapted to the use of families and schools.a convenient Manuel sic for travellers and seamen."

1820réf. 55522New York: Printed by G.L. Birch & Co. 1820. Essays by Mordecai Noah An interesting work on saving and thrift by a consequential American diplomat. Most of the essays blame poverty and bankruptcy on moral faults such as reckless spending and devotion to fashion.

Mordecai Noah 1785-1851 was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. Noah was notable as one of the first Jewish Americans to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons.
