ref. 251229Melbourne: E.W. Cole: 1900 A stylish art nouveau decorated cloth that is hard covers pp. iv 62 162 x 110 mm. Frontispiece. Cole published only two novels by women. One of them was this novella A Question of Taste by Esther Hacknay author of Thistledown serialised in 1899 in The Adelaide Observer. Immediate doubt is thereby cast on the spelling of the authors surname on the cover and title page of this Cole publication since Thistledown is attributed to the much more likely Esther Hackney. A very good copy. hardcover

1832ref. 025670London: E. Wilson Royal Exchange 1832. Octavo. Half-Titleads on verso xii v-viii 360 pages. Howes F93 calls this work "a valuable account of the Illinois and Indiana frontier". The author's real name was O'Ferrall. While de Toqueville's work remains the classic there is much in this fascinating account that is not only more accessible but particularly insightful in that area known as the "new west" usually ending with the Mississippi. He has accounts of Robert Owen and the New Harmony Community the lawlessness which he says should be a warning to those who think merely acquiring land will prevent them from fraud and violence. His account of a wild-eyed preacher who saw in the Cahokia Mounds a proof of the Trinity. I found in reading this remarkable account a condition of life reminiscent of Lincoln's Prairie Years though more violent. For those who think the early American frontier beyond the eastern seaboard was being civilized it is obviously true that the law of those with power connivance and greed determined who would succeed. Lincoln's character and remarkable morality is evinced even more clearly after seeing the world in which he lived. Bound in modern brown cloth paper spine label lettered in black endpapers renewed page edges have toning. A very nice copy. E. Wilson, Royal Exchange unknown
