1804pp. v, (3), (5)-224. Text beginning to brown but not brittle. Light dampstain. New marbled endpapers. 12mo. 180 mm. Rebound in brown cloth. Leather spine label. Hardbound. Very Good. 'Squire' Job Roberts (1757-1851) was a remarkable man of Welsh Quaker decent. He was born, lived, and died in Whitpain, close to Gwynedd, and for many years he was one of the most conspicuous figures in the farming, business and social circles of Gwynedd. He did much to improve the methods of farming, planted hedges, introduced the feeding of green fodder to cattle, instead of grazing, built a barn which was enormously large, according to the usual standard, and very early introduced the use of gypsum on fields. He was one of the first in Pennsylvania to introduce and breed Merino sheep, and during the movement to establish the manufacture of silk he was one of its most zealous promoters. In 1791, Gov. Mifflin appointed him a justice of the peace, and he continued as such until 1820, when he resigned and returned to farming and other entreprenureal pursuits. S&S/AI 7203; Sabin 71898; Rink 1148.

1846réf. 54235Boston: Thomas H. Webb & Co 1846. First edition 8vo pp. 176; original printed wrappers backed with red cloth at an early date manuscript paper label on spine; wrappers lightly soiled and worn with minor loss to back wrap; a few corners creased and curled but text generally clean. A good sound copy. A work of Emersonian pantheism by the Chief Judge of the Rhode Island Supreme Court who presided over the Dorr trials. In an earlier work The Influence of Scientific Discovery and Invention on Social and Political Progress 1843 Durfee believed that he had found in the advent of steam power a sign of divine intervention indicating a "law of progress" in man's development. Panidea adumbrates this theme: all is eventually assimilated into the "Theanthropoid" Durfee's term for the Divine Mind. See Schneider History of American Philosophy. DAB offers a concise assessment: "a somewhat pretentious philosophical work which nobody read." American Imprints 2262. Thomas H. Webb & Co unknown books
