Description
1775. (AMERICAN REVOLUTION) (BURKE, Edmund) TUCKER, Josiah, D.D. An Humble Address and Earnest Appeal to Those Respectable Personages in Great-Britain and Ireland… Whether a Connection with, or a Separation from the Continental Colonies of America, Be Most for the National Advantage, and the Lasting Benefit of these Kingdoms. Gloucester: R. Raikes… Sold by T. Cadell, 1775. Slim octavo, period-style half brown morocco and marbled boards, raised bands; pp. (1-3), 4-93 (3). $3200.First corrected edition, second overall, issued within days of the same year's first edition of the ""important and influential"" British economist's seminal rebuke of Edmund Burke, charging him with a crucial misunderstanding how the political economics of self-interest would best prevent further ""Disturbances and Disputes"" with America, urging Britain in 1775 to ""separate totally from the Colonies… to enter into Alliances of Friendship, and Treaties of Commerce , as with any other sovereign, independent States,"" handsomely bound.""A controversial figure during his lifetime,"" particularly in his views on the economics of Britain's stance toward the American colonies, Tucker was well known to Adam Smith and Founding Fathers Madison and Jefferson, who each owned copies of his writings. ""Increasingly recognized as an important and original 18th-century theorist"" (ODNB), Tucker was ""espousing the cause of American separation as early as 1766, before the Americans themselves had considered this eventuality with any seriousness"" To key scholars, ""Tucker analyzed the American conflict more accurately than his contemporaries… [yet] so different were his views from all those around him that he has been noted as… a 'visionary' (Trevelyan) or a 'fanatic' (Clark)"" (Rashid, ""Tucker's Proposal,"" in Journal of the History of Ideas V43, No.3, 439). His assessment of American independence was not motivated ""by any sympathy for the Americans."" Instead, ""their rapid economic growth and dislike of regulation would, he believed, eventually lead them to separate from Britain through self-interest… [and] the developing American crisis over taxation touched upon all Tucker's major interests: the need to maintain a mutually self-interested and beneficial trade between Britain and her colonies, his dislike of war and mock patriotism, and his distrust of political radicalism"" (ODNB). ""Central to Tucker's philosophy of economy is the concept of 'self-love,' which… became part of Adam Smith's concept of the 'invisible hand'… Tucker regarded trade as Britain's glory… [and] went so far as to suggest that the colonies should be detached from Britain to allow greater freedom of trade, a view which brought him into conflict with Edmund Burke"" (Dictionary of 18th-Century British Philosophers V2:898).When Burke attacked Tucker in the famed March 22, 1775 Speech on Conciliation with America, Tucker quickly responded with Humble Address. Here he marshals arguments and evidence to counter claims that Britain would lose its profitable commerce if America broke free. Tucker contended the ""greater part of the colonial trade was motivated by self-interest and… it was a simple corollary that neither shipping nor navigation could be hurt by the independence of the colonies."" To further support his position, he details ""customs-house figures from 1765-72 to show that it was not Americans, but Germany and Holland, who purchased more British exports than the Americans"" (Rashid, 454). To F.P. Lock, ""Tucker anticipated one of Adam Smith's shrewdest insights, that regulations and restrictions impeded commerce rather than protecting it. For Tucker, imperialism was uneconomic… Let the Americans be independent, and they will continue to trade with Britain as long as British goods are competitive, Thus Tucker, like Smith, denied the economic value conventionally attributed to the possession of colonies. Burke disagreed… in the 1770s Burke still held to the mercantilist belief that exclusive or preferential trade with its colonies benefits the home country"" (Edmund Burke, I:388). Copies of Tucker's works ""including those on the colonies are found to be in Adam Smith's library"" (Rashid, 456), and works by Tucker in Jefferson's library included Humble Address, ""initialed by Jefferson"" (Sowerby 3061). ""Second Edition, Corrected"" on title page. With folding chart of exports; rear advertisement leaf. Engraved ornamental initials, heading and tailpiece. Preceded by the November 1775 first edition.

Housed in a custom cloth slipcase. $2400.First edition, first state, of Conrad's scarce first book, one of only 2000 copies printed.It was after meeting the real ""Olmeijer"" in East Borneo in 1887 that Conrad began working on what was to become his first novel, which he finished six years later in 1894 (he was also active as a seaman during most of this period). He submitted the completed manuscript to Unwin for consideration as part of their ""Pseudonym Library,"" adopting the pseudonym ""Kamudi"" (Malayan for ""rudder"").

This copy first state, with the letters missing from the last two lines of page 110 and the period missing after the headline on page 43. Cagle A1a.1.

Description
Paris: s.n., 1756. 12mo (169 x 96 mm). 10, [2 blank] pages. Woodcut ornament on title. (Title soiled.) Extra-illustrated with three states of an engraved bust portrait of Mme. Pompadour, in two states, of which two avant la lettre, one in black and one in sepia, the latter on very thick paper, and one with lettering (Mme. de Pompadour). Jansenist blue-green morocco, turn-ins gilt, gilt edges, silk ribbon marker, 5 blank leaves at front and 6 at back (spine slightly sunned). Provenance: J[ules] Noilly, his gilt monogrammed booklabel, sale Paris, 15-20 March 1886, lot 432 (lot ticket preserved).*** First and apparently only edition of a loosely constructed mildly satirical erotic poem, almost a prose poem, that pretends to be a self-celebration by Louis XV’s mistress, friend, and influential advisor Madame de Pompadour. Praising her own looks — her skin, face, eyes, mouth, and hair, even her “two-storey chin” (standards of beauty change), she moves on to her intelligence, wit, lack of pretense (carefully constructed), and other attractions, finally circling back to the most enticing part of all, for the lascivious male. The culmination of the poem is a rather trite metaphorical description of her “private parts” as a welcoming grotto, and the mounting excitement of the daydreaming poet[ess]. In the last lines she shakes herself: “what am I saying, where is the rhyme taking me?” and she summons a cold shower in the form of “the sad reminder of a husband, a mother, a hunchbacked prelate, and a battleaxe of an Abbess.” (The first two references may be to Mme de Pompadour’s husband Charles-Guillaume Le Normant d'Étiolles and to her by then deceased mother Madeleine de La Motte; I have not identified the other two.) An enlightened patron of literature and the arts, Mme de Pompadour would have scoffed at this silly concoction, but the generally complimentary (if disrespectful) tone of the piece implies that it may have been produced by someone in her circle. It is not a Poissonade in the classic sense. The pamphlet was sometimes bound with various editions of Mme de Pompadour’s equally apocryphal letters. The Parisian bibliophile Jules Noilly had this fine copy bound by Marius-Michel with three states of a small oval stipple-engraved portrait of Mme de Pompadour, which he or the cataloguer of his collection described as “after Céroni”; cf. Catalogue de livres rares et curieux, anciens et modernes, et d'une précieuse collection de livres de l'École Romantique, composant la bibliothèque de M. J. Noilly (Paris: veuve Labitte, 1886), lot 432.

Octavo, cream pebbled boards (hardcover), gilt lettering, map illustrated endpapers, 216 pp. Very Good in a Very Good, mylar protected dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: The area that is now Wisconsin was French for more than one hundred and fifty years. In 1827, almost overnight, the lead region was occupied by English-speaking miners and settlers. Mineral Point was founded in 1827 and quickly became a booming mining town and the capital of the mining area. It was known far and wide as Shake Rag under the Hill. The miners and settlers were followed in the early 1830s by hard rock Cornish miners. The Territory of Wisconsin was inaugurated on July 4, 1836 at Mineral Point, which was then the principal political town in the new territory. In this book the story of the lead miners if followed by the story of zinc. The historical outline takes the reader through the ups and downs of Mineral Point from 1827 to 1962, at the same time it gives a perspective of the old mining region. The author also gives the story of Pendarvis, the famous Cornish restoration.
