Description
02/05/1798. When Adams became President in March of 1797, the French had seized nearly 300 American ships bound for British ports. They had ordered this measure in retaliation for the Jay Treaty the U.S. had signed with Great Britain, which the French considered evidence of an Anglo-American alliance. Relations between France and the U.S. worsened when Talleyrand, the French foreign minister, rejected the Federalist Charles C. Pinckney as America's minister to France.https://vimeo.com/755678185In the U.S., Republicans believed that it was the intention of the Adams administration to stir up trouble with France (like selecting an anti-French ambassador to Paris) so as to steer the U.S. towards the British, and they opposed the President’s measures and appointments. The American people were more disunited and disaffected than ever; the French continued to seize American ships, many Federalists demanded war on France, and Republicans cried foul. Seeking to avoid a war, President Adams sent a three member commission to Paris consisting of Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, John Marshall, and Elbridge Gerry. After many delays the American commissioners were approached by three intermediaries of Talleyrand, who demanded apologies for allusions critical of France made by Adams and payment of a bribe of several million dollars before official negotiations could proceed.The American delegates found this bribery unacceptable and the mission ended unsuccessfully. Adams received a report of this exchange in March 1798 and he was outraged. He hesitated, however, to release the complete details of the report for fear that it would increase war fever. Congress, and particularly his Republican opponents, thought he was withholding information because the talks showed a peaceable resolution was feasible, and on April 2 demanded the entire report be immediately turned over to it. Adams complied.At this point Adams’ situation was completely transformed. Americans were furious at the bribery demand and opposition to Adams’ handling of the crisis collapsed. As many of his critics became advocates, Adams became widely popular, the only time in his life of which this can be said. As a tangible expression of this sentiment, patriotic addresses of support came in from around the country. Adams revelled in his new-found popularity, and as stated in The Age of Federalism by Elkins & McKitrick, “Adams spent a large portion of his time feasting upon these addresses, composing replies to each one himself...each reply echoing the soaring feelings they inspired in his bosom.”The President was a historian, philosopher and classical scholar, and as he drafted his responses, he made full use of his knowledge to not merely address the issues of the day, but to provide historical lessons and offer his considered opinions on political philosophy and republics. A number of the more important of these addresses, with Adams’ answers to them, were printed at the time in book form: A Selection of the Patriotic Addresses to the President of the United States. Together with the President's Answers, John W. Folsom, Boston, 1798. In it, we find ”The Address and Memorial of the Citizens of Baltimore and Baltimore County, to the President, the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States.”This letter from America’s fifth largest city, directed to Adams and supporting the government, must have warmed his heart. The Baltimorians wrote: “That your memorialists at this important and eventful crisis, when a foreign nation...has menaced with destruction the freedom and independence of the United States, and represented the citizens thereof to be a divided people, feel themselves impelled by considerations of duty and love to their country, to express their sentiments and declare their determination to support the constituted authorities. Your memorialists highly applaud the wise and liberal measures pursued by the government of the United States...and although warmly attached to peace...we cannot for a moment hesitate in making our election between freedom and servile submission to a foreign power. Having the fullest confidence in the wisdom of our government, we submit to their consideration the necessity of placing our country in a state of defence, and protecting our commerce; and trust...temporary inconvenience resulting from the interruption of peace will not be considered of such magnitude as to be placed in competition with the sovereignty and freedom of the United States, whose existence is unjustly threatened.”Adams, the atlas, instigator and philosopher of American independence, responded in this letter reflecting his thoughts on the nature of republics and his concern that the fledgling American government make such a system work - something no European nation had yet managed. He also defined his view on the scope of freedom of expression, saying that divisions of opinion are a natural and often salutary part of a republic, so long as foreign nations are not able to foment those divisions into a destructive disunity. On the immediate political questions, the President stated that the United States would defend itself and protect its commerce from foreign powers in order to maintain its sovereignty. This is Adams’ reply to the people of Baltimore, a reply printed in Folsom’s book.The sense you entertain of the conduct of a foreign nation in threatening with destruction the freedom, and Independence, of the United States, and representing the Citizens of America as a divided people, is such as patriotism naturally and necessarily inspires.Letter Signed as President, Philadelphia, May 2, 1798, “To the Citizens of Baltimore & Baltimore County in the State of Maryland.” “Thank you for communicating to me this respectful address. The sense you entertain of the conduct of a foreign nation in threatening with destruction the freedom, and Independence, of the United States, and representing the Citizens of America as a divided people, is such as patriotism naturally and necessarily inspires. The fate of every republic in Europe however, from Poland to Geneva, has given too much cause for such thoughts and projects in our Enemies, and such apprehensions in our Friends and ourselves. Republics are always divided in opinions concerning forms of Government, and plans, and details of administration - these divisions are generally harmless, often salutary, and seldom very hurtful, except when foreign Nations interfere, and by their acts, and agents, excite and foment them into parties and factions; such interference and influence, must be resisted and exterminated or it will end in America, as it did anciently in Greece, and in our own time in Europe, in our total destruction as a republican Government and Independent power. The liberal applause you bestow on the measures pursued by the Government, for the adjustment of differences and restoration of harmony, your resolutions of Resistance in preference to submission to any foreign power, your confidence in the Government, your recommendation of measures of defences of the Country, and protection of its commerce, and your generous resolution to submit to the Expences and temporary inconveniencies which may be necessary to preserve the sovereignty, and freedom of the United States are received with much respect.” His docket on the verso, “Answer to Baltimore,” indicates that this is Adams’ own retained copy of the letter.The mailed copy is likely in the Baltimore archives to this day. Adams’ concern for determining the nature and bounds of a republic, and for finding a way to successfully maintain one, brings to mind Benjamin Franklin’s comment on the same subect. At the close of the Constitutional Convention, a woman asked him what type of government the Constitution was bringing into existence. Franklin replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” Adams here articulates the important political principle that dissent and differences of opinion should form a part of the fabric of the American republic, though drawing the line that they are “salutory” unless they arise to divisions “fomented” by foreign powers. He also takes a strong patriotic position, insisting that he will defend “the freedom, and Independence, of the United States...” The man who first proposed American independence was not about to permit any nation to threaten it. Adams would have served himself best by sticking to the positions he propounded in this letter. Instead, in July 1798, he advocated and signed the Sedition Act, a law that contained broad prohibitions on spoken or written criticism of the government, the Congress or the President (and lacked the element of foreign involvement). This revived the opposition against him, and prominent Jeffersonians were tried, and some were convicted, in sedition proceedings. Kentucky and Virginia then passed resolutions purporting to nullify the Act, and its enforcement did much to unify the Republican party and to foster Republican victory in the election of 1800.

Description
18/03/1884. A check of Chester A. Arthur on The Nassau Bank of New York, March 18, 1884, made out in his hand to Chester A. Arthur, Jr. Esq. for $100 and boldly signed as President. There are thus two signatures of his on the front. On the verso Chester A. Arthur, Jr. has signed “C.A. Arthur, Jr.” as an endorsement with a bank stamp below the signature. Below this his son has written “For Gisela Merz from her friend Chester A. Arthur III (three generations!) New York, 1966.” Fine condition, a truly remarkable assemblage of generations of the Arthur family.Chester Alan Arthur, Jr. was a student at Princeton at this time, and was known for his lavish spending, which earned him the title among his Washington friends as “Prince of Washington.” He spent most of the rest of his life as a dilettante travelling and raising horses. Chester Alan Arthur III (1901-1972) was perhaps the most interesting member of the family. He was once jailed for being a member of the Irish Republican Movement, and later moved to California where he founded an art and literature commune and taught at San Quentin before writing ""The Circle of Sex"", a book that analyzed human sexuality through the lens of astrology. He was finally reduced to selling newspapers on the streets of San Francisco.

Description
1942. Signed. EINSTEIN, Albert. Typed letter signed. Princeton, November 3, 1942. One sheet, measuring 8-1/2 by 11 inches, typing on recto only; matted and framed with a portrait of Einstein, entire piece measures 21 by 17 inches. $38,000.An exceptional typed letter signed by Einstein on precursors like Johannes Kepler's work to his Special and General Theories of Relativity, beautifully framed.The letter, on letterhead from the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, reads in full: ""November 3, 1942. Mr. Felix W. Cartier. Laconite, Minn. Dear Sir: Since the times of Kepler one has found approximation formulaes for the mean distances of the planets from the sun. It is sure that there are not precise laws behind those approximate relations. It may be possible to understand the irregularities of this kind with the methods of statistical mechanics. But hitherto nobody seems to have been able to do so. In any case there is no analogy between such regularities and the quantum laws in molecular physics. Very truly yours, [signed] A. Einstein. Prof. Albert Einstein.""Early in the 17th century, Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) discovered that planets orbit the sun in ellipses rather than perfect circles. This great discovery paved the way for Isaac Newton's laws of gravity, and for Albert Einstein's general and special theories of relativity. Previous to Einstein's time, people believed in real distances and absolute time, and showed that instruments could not objectively measure the distances between planets. Einstein's theories, which hypothesized that light and space curve near a massive object, revolutionized scientific thought and gave man an exciting new perspective of his universe.Einstein's letter reflects on some of the most important scientific revelations in the history of physics and astronomy. Kepler defined three laws of planetary motion; however, the one specifically referred to in this letter is that all planets move about the Sun in elliptical orbits, having the Sun as one of the foci. If the Universe then consisted only of two point masses—the Sun and a planet—the orbit of that planet would make a perfect, closed ellipse that returned the world to its starting location with each trip around the Sun. But in a Universe governed by Newtonian gravity, with a plethora of massive bodies in our Solar System, that ellipse will precess, or rotate slightly in its orbit.In the mid-1800s, orbital deviations of Uranus from its predicted motions led to the discovery of Neptune, as the outermost world's gravitational influence accounted for the excess motion. But in the inner Solar System, the nearest planet to the Sun, Mercury, was experiencing a similar problem. With detailed, accurate observations going back to the late 1500s, thanks to astronomer Tycho Brahe, we could measure how Mercury's perihelion, its closest orbital point to the Sun, was advancing. The number we came up with was 5,600"" per century, just over 1.5 degrees over a 100 year period. But of that, 5,025"" came from the precession of Earth's equinoxes, a well-known phenomenon, while 532"" was due to Newtonian gravity.But 5,025"" plus 532"" comes up short by a small but significant amount. Attempts at explanation—including the existence of an unknown inner planet, interior to Mercury—all failed. But after Einstein's special theory of relativity came out in 1905, mathematician Henri Poincare showed that the phenomena of length contraction and time dilation contributed a fraction, between 15-25%, of the needed amount towards the solution, dependent on the error. That, plus Minkowski's formalization of space and time as not separate entities, but as a single structure bound together by their union, spacetime, led Einstein to develop the general theory of relativity. On November 25, 1915, he presented his results, computing the spectacular figure that the contribution of the extra curvature of space predicted an additional precession of 43"" per century, exactly the right figure needed to explain this observation, sending shockwaves through the astronomy and physics communities. Less than two months after this, Karl Schwarzschild found an exact solution, predicting the existence of black holes. The deflection of starlight and gravitational redshifts/blueshifts were realized as possible tests, and finally the solar eclipse of 1919 validated general relativity as superseding Newtonian gravity. Expected fold lines. An incredible letter, scarce in its important content.

Wlochy and [Italy], 1945. Hardcover. Very Good. First edition. Text in Polish. Small quarto. pp. [1-4] 5-275 [276 (blank)]. Illustrated with 18 photographic halftone plates, one folded plate, and one large folded color plate: “Map of Concentration Camps in Soviet Russia,” tipped onto the back of the final page. Bound in original quarter cloth and marbled paper over boards. There are two small ink ownership stamps (both with a small inventory number written in ink) on three leaves: the recto and verso of the title page; side-by-side on the bottom right corner of one halftone plate; and side-by-side on the final text page. Old light stain on the spine back and very gentle bow on the top edge of the boards, the text block is neatly detached at the hinges, else near fine: the text pages and folded plates are clean and tight. The rare Polish first edition, sarcastically titled “Soviet Justice,” that gives one of the first detailed accounts of Soviet Gulag camps and the associated politically corrupt justice system. It features an important folded map that shows the locations of the prison camps, together with extensive explanatory details about the camps in English. The book was published during the last months of World War II, or immediately after the war ended, by Polish II Corps soldiers under British command in Italy, probably in Rome. The authors, Stanislaw Staszewski and Kazimierz Zamorski, used pseudonyms to protect their families, who still lived in Poland, from Russian reprisals, and also to conceal British involvement in the book’s publication as Soviet forces at the time were still fighting on the side of the Allies. Stanislaw Staszewski was a well-known Polish architect and writer, who participated in the Warsaw Uprising and was later imprisoned at the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria. A scarce, well-preserved copy, with the important folding map in excellent condition. Historical note: The Polish II Corps (Drugi Korpus Wojska Polskiego) was formed in 1943, from various units fighting alongside the Allies, including in British-held Iraq. In addition to the Polish soldiers, the Corps also included Jewish, Belorussian, and Ukrainian soldiers. Many Polish soldiers were imprisoned in Gulags by the Soviets from 1939 on and were released in 1941, after the Polish-Russian Military Agreement on 14 August, which allowed for the creation of a Polish Army on Soviet soil. The Polish II Corps played a major role in the North African and the Italian Campaigns (1941-45) as part of the British Eighth Army. After the war the division was based at various locations in England, where they maintained a presence until 1962.

Beirut, Lebanon: A. Antoine, 2010. Hardbound. VG, bumps to corners and spine ends, o.w. clean and beautiful.. Noel Nasr, photographer. Brown cloth over board clamshell, stamped titles. [6] pp, [31] loose leaves of plates (some bi-fold, some tri-fold), tissue paper cover surrounding the set of leaves. "This essay in photograph tells a very personal tale. Yet in its scope, the essay moves beyond the particular to explore an understanding of a very complex relationship of a daughter with her father. The father, Constantine Zurayk, was a historian and a leading force in contemporary Arab thought. The daughter, Afaf, is an artist. Drawing on this most basic and formative relationship, Afaf examines visually, through images of light and shadow, the deep roots of bonding as well as the concept of time as it unfolds for a historian and for an artist." (opening page) Certainly a unique presentation, and one that is spell-binding as well. Perhaps, not what you may expect.
