Description
New York: J.S. Ogilvie, 1892. Paperback. Good. Paperback. VERY SCARCE. Florence Warden (1857-1929) was a British actress and writer. She was born Florence Alice Price, but changed her name to Florence Warden for her stage career. She was also a prolific writer who wrote many novels under her stage name. Her first novel, The Wolf at the Door, was published anonymously in 1877. Overall she published over 120 novels over a nearly 50-year writing career as well as several plays. She became well-known for her novel The House on the Marsh (1884), which was also turned into a play. Strangely, "Down in the World" is not listed in her bibliography on any website, although the cover of this copy states "By Florence Warden, Author of 'The House on the Marsh.' This was issued as part of The Sunnyside Series, No. 59, and thus may have been overlooked by bibliographers. A very interesting and rare find for a collector of Victorian literature. Octavo. In original bluish-green wraps that are faded around edges and on spine. Covers as well as many pages are chipped at the edges, but text is not effected. Text block is browned and a bit brittle, apparently due to the quality of the paper in the early paperback printing. 201 pp.+ads Literature. LIT8/3072.

1870. Claim Concerning Title to Point San Jose in San Francisco [Trial]. Steinbach, R., Plaintiff. Flagg, John H., Attorney. Point San Jose: Supplementary Brief in Behalf of Claimants. N.p., [c.1870]. 10 pp. Octavo (9" x 5-1/2"). Self-wrappers, recto of first leaf and verso of terminal leaf soiled, crease to lower corner, internally clean. $20. * Only edition. Located near the entrance to the Golden Gate, Point San Jose was occupied by the U.S. military in 1863. The military claimed it was entitled to do this because the nation was in a state of war. It established a series of artillery batteries and continued to hold the land after the war. This irregular annexation was the basis of Steinbach's suit, which was first filed in 1866. OCLC locates 3 copies all in California. Not found in Hollis.
