Description
Leyden: Joannem Maire, 1619. Half-vellum over marbled boards; interior lightly browned with minor stains and a few tears. An unknown annotator (T8v) refers to Claudius Salmasius's Plinanae exercitationes of 1629 or 1689. From the library of the noted and distinguished French classicist and Greek scholar Jean François Boissande de Fontarabie (1774-1857). His image is pictured in Sandys' A History of Classical Scholarship, Cambridge, 1908, III, p. 248. He is best known for his work as an editor of Greek texts, including the editiones principes of Babrius and Maximus Planudes's Greek translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses (Sandys, pp. 249-50). Another signature of Schwin[...]', front paste-down, plus other assorted marks. Scriverius (1576-1660), an independent scholar, remains best known for this, his edition with commentary of the Roman epigrammatist Marcus Valerius Martialis. His edition possesses additional interest to scholars because of quotations from Josephus Scaliger (1540-1609).

Very Good
Description
New York: Schubert Piano Co, 1890. Softcover. Very Good. Manufacturer's catalogue with sheet music. Quarto. 12pp. Stapled wrappers. Illustrated in black and white with a full color ad on the rear wrapper. Wrappers splitting along the bottom of the spine, wrappers lightly soiled, and corners bumped, very good. Contains four instrumental pieces for use with the Schubert Mandolin-Piano, "Schubert Two-Step or March," "Schubert Mazurka or York," "Schubert German Melody," and "Schubert Caprice or Schottisch." The Schubert Mandolin-Piano was an upright piano with an internal device controlled via foot pedal that pressed against the strings in such a way as to mimic the sound of a mandolin, or according to the front cover, nearly any other plucked string instrument. The Antique Piano Shop website states of the Mandolin-Piano, "This unique sound quickly caught on and became widely known as the “rinky tink” or “honky tonk” piano sound used in saloons and bars across the land for decades." A neat bit of music ephemera.

Inscribed and signed without designation on title page ('Best wishes always! John Matteson'). 2 inch stain to fore edge margin of last 50 pages - does not affect text. Binding tight and square. 2007 Hard Cover. x, 497 pp. An account of the family life of Louisa May Alcott, American Transcendentalist and author of Little Women. Louisa May Alcott is known universally. Yet during Louisa's youth, the famous Alcott was her father, Bronson―an eminent teacher and a friend of Emerson and Thoreau. He desired perfection, for the world and from his family. Louisa challenged him with her mercurial moods and yearnings for money and fame. The other prize she deeply coveted―her father's understanding―seemed hardest to win. This story of Bronson and Louisa's tense yet loving relationship adds dimensions to Louisa's life, her work, and the relationships of fathers and daughters.
