Bruce Rogers. St. Patrick's Day in the morning - 1922-" and also with "No. 1.

This is an early copy bound in green unlike the others." In handsome quarter burgundy morocco slipcase and cloth chemise. Great association copy: Whitall's wife and Allen were childhood friends in South Carolina and Allen gave to her the bound manuscript of "Anthony Adverse" the subject of a New Yorker article in 1934. Major Whitall was a well known book collector and bibliophile. Struck by Allen's poem "The Blindman" published in 1923 Whitall established "The Blindman Prize" a $250 annual prize for the best poem administered by the Poetry Society of South Carolina. It is clear from all this that Allen was very close to the Whitalls. It's extra special that this is the first copy off the press and was inscribed by both Rogers and Allen. James F.

1732ref. GEN2-D-1London: J Roberts 1732. Cloth. Very Good. 7.5" by 5". None. An interesting and scarce text reviewing George Berkeley's text. The work is a letter whereby an English clergyman is writing to his London friend on his views of Alciphron or The Minute Philosopher. This is the second edition of this text. The Minute Philosopher is a philosophical dialogue by Irish philosopher George Berkeley. In this work he combats the arguments of the free-thinkers such as Mandeville and Shaftesbury against the Christian religion. The work was first published in 1732 the same year that this review was published. Although there is not an author attributed to the title page it was later known that the title was written by John Hervey or 2nd Baron Hervey of Ickworth. John Hervey was an English courtier political writer and memoirist. He was known for writing very brutally frank works such as his memoirs of the court of George II where he gave a very unflattering account of the King and Frederick Prince of Wales. In a full cloth binding. Externally smart with some bumping to the extremities and to the head and tail of spine. Prior owner's inscription to front pastedown A G Mollard Aberdeen June 1971. Internally firmly bound. Pages are age toned to edges with the title page heavily age toned with handling marks. Scattered spots throughout. Very Good J Roberts hardcover
