1777ref. 000205No Publisher Given 1777. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. A Parliamentary Chronicle: or accounts of the proceedings and debates of the House of Commons upon the opening of the present sessions. This spans from October 30 1776 to February 25 1777. No author. These proceedings open with an address by King George to parliament regarding the American Revolution. It begins "Nothing could have afforded me so much satisfaction as to have been able to inform you at the opening of this session that the troubles which have so long distracted my colonies in North America were at an end; and that my unhappy people recovered from their delusion had delivered themselves from the oppression of their leaders and returned to their duty .". After this address various members of parliament respond some with support for the war and others advocating granting America its independence. Some of these speeches go into detail in regard to troops morale conduct propaganda in the US press especially propaganda by General Gage. Also discussed within are Britainn's defenses against Spain and France Jamaica and many other interesting topics. The debates over the war with America are amazing historical references serving to frame the Revolutionary War through the eyes of the British.

VERY GOOD condition with light soiling light fading and moderate scuffing mostly noticeable to the top and bottom of the spine. Light bumping and edgewear. Pages clean and solid but browning.

1868ref. 020098New York: Susan B. Anthony Proprietor; R.J. Johnson Publisher 1868. Wraps. Good. Side sewn journal. Approximately 12 ¼ by 9 inches. 16 pp. Early issue of the Revolution a groundbreaking and influential newspaper produced by Elizabeth Cady Stanton Susan B. Anthony and Parker Pillsbury. The paper was established to provide a voice to activists and suffragists such as Stanton and Anthony whose voices were marginalized by the mainstream press as well as many abolitionist publications with whom they had been previously allied. Anthony and Stanton advocated for an amendment giving suffrage to women along with the amendment sponsored by abolitionists that would give Black men the right to vote. Many abolitionists actively discouraged Stanton and Anthony from pursuing their amendment until the amendment enfranchising Black men passed creating a rift in the abolitionist movement as well as the women's suffrage movement. Feeling betrayed by abolitionists and Republicans who initially supported them they established the Revolution with financial help from George Francis Train a Democrat who supported women's rights but was openly racist. As the name indicates The Revolution adopted a combative radical tone with Stanton and others unafraid to take on critics. The paper openly discussed sexual and physical abuse in marriage and advocated better divorce laws that would offer women a way to escape abusive marriages. In 1869 the paper broke with Train who had supplied very little of the funding he initially offered. It published until 1872 struggling to make expenses along the way. This issue with several articles written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton including a lambasting of the Democratic Party with another piece not treating Republicans kindly either. She also discusses the Peoples Party etc. A short piece by Susan B. Anthony present addressing the beginning of volume 2 of the Revolution. GOOD condition. Several fold creases present with other general wrinkling. Minor toning and scattered soiling in the interior. Front and rear leaf separating from the rest of the piece but still intact. Susan B. Anthony, Proprietor; R.J. Johnson, Publisher unknown

1971ref. 016065Washington: Government printing Office 1971. Wraps. Good. Printed wraps. 145 7 pp. A few black and white illustrations throughout reprints of illustrations from issues of The Black Panther Party. A supposedly "analytical" report on the Black Panther Party discussing its origins ideology and methodology in achieving its aims. The work cites the words of Black Panther Party leaders and ex-members and subtly seeks to tie the party to foreign groups communists seeking to overthrow the US government while ignoring the facts in some cases such as the murder of Fred Hampton that would portray the US government in a poor light. The report was issued by the Committee on Internal Security formerly known as the House of Un-American Activities Committee chaired by Richard Ichord a staunch anti-communist. GOOD condition. Minor to moderate toning some staining and minor soiling with light rusting to the staples. Minor creasing and wrinkling. Government printing Office unknown
