Description
1827. First Edition. LOUAILLIER, Louis. The Appeal of L. Louaillier, Sen. Against the Charge of High Treason, and Explaining the Transactions at New-Orleans. New Orleans: No publisher, 1827. Octavo, stitched as issued, original printed beige self-wrappers; pp. 28. $2900.First edition of this address supporting John Quincy Adams for the presidency by objecting to Andrew Jackson's continuation of martial law in New Orleans after the British withdrawal.Issued during the presidential campaign of 1828, this pamphlet takes on Andrew Jackson's establishment of martial law in New Orleans during the War of 1812. When state senator Louis Louaillier wrote an article objecting to Jackson's military dictatorship, he was arrested. When Judge Dominic Hall dared to criticize Jackson's suspension of habeas corpus and Louaillier's arrest, he was arrested too and charged with treason. When Hall was eventually released, he fined Jackson $1000, a huge sum at the time that a number of officials felt was unreasonable. Louaillier, in turn, offered this address, published here for the first time, in which he speaks of the injustices Jackson inflicted on him and implored his fellow citizens to vote for John Quincy Adams (who ultimately lost). Howes L485. Eberstadt 182. Shoemaker 29534. Early owner signature on front wrapper.Unobtrusive abrasion line to front wrapper, light wear to extremities, minor embrowning. An extremely good copy.

Description
viii, 175 pp. 8vo, attractive antique calf-backed paste-paper boards, spine gilt, red morocco lettering-piece on spine. Paris: Bénard, 1806. The uncommon sale catalogue of an exceptional print collection formed in Belgium. Wolfgang Guillaume, the third duc d’Ursel (?1730-1804), a Belgian general and husband of Flore d’Arenberg, focused his collecting on prints of paintings engraved by the painters themselves. The catalogue is arranged by school and within that by painter. We find engravings by Albani, Carracci, Maratti, Titian, Dürer, Hollar, Berghem, van Leyden, Rembrandt, Callot, Coypel, etc. The catalogue thoroughly describes 948 lots of prints and drawings, many of which are large group lots, with the more considerable collections divided into numerous subsections for greater clarity. Lots 907-948 detail the duke’s books of prints and views, auction catalogues, dictionaries, and other important art historical texts. Nice copy, with occasional annotations in pencil. We locate only one copy in North America. ❧ Cicognara 4753. Lugt 7133.

"[Amy Woodforde-Finden] began composing at an early age and was a pupil of Carl Schloesser and Amy Horrocks. Under the name Amy Ward she wrote some early songs which received little notice. In 1894 she married Woodforde-Finden of the Indian Army and for some years lived in India; when her Four Indian Love Lyrics (from Laurence Hope's The Garden of Kama) were published privately in 1902, their success, particularly that of the Kashmiri Song ('Pale hands I loved beside the Shalimar'), gained her a regular publisher and a faithful public. She followed these songs with A Lover in Damascus (Charles Hanson Towne; 1904), On Jhelum River (Frederick John Fraser; 1905), The Pagoda of Flowers (Fraser; 1907) and other collections, as well as many individual songs, often with oriental subjects and notable for their fluent, sentimental melody."

Description
South Burlington, Vermont: Success Networks International, (2003). Signed by the Author. Octavo, softbound (slick, full-color photo. illus. stiff wrappers), 292 pp. Fine (As New). From lower cover: J. Francis Angier was raised on a Vermont farm and became a B-17 pilot during WWII. He flew jets and helicopters during the Cold War as well as many other types and models during a long aviation career. His love of flying was only exceeded by his love of family and country. Shot down over Germany in 1944, he spent seven months as a POW. His training, air battles, capture and survival are part of the story. So too are the many experiences that positioned and prepared him for his part in the air war over Europe. In Ready or Not you’ll come to understand and appreciate one of the many heroes of what Tom Brokaw has called, “The Greatest Generation.”
