Description
[n.p.]: [n.p.], 1809. FIRST EDITION. With 1 folding plate with 2 figures. Wrappers. This curious monograph on working stoves contains most probably one of the first descriptions of freestanding closed-top ranges with a flue. In 1780, the first kitchen stove was invented by Thomas Robinson. It had a cast iron oven on one side of a fire grate. We are unsure if this is an instruction booklet from the manufacturer, or a discourse on how to cook more nutritional meals using less fuel. The figure depicts placement of the fuel in order to cook foods evenly throughout.

Description
New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1931. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. 8vo., 319pp. Beautiful First Edition of this scarce mystery. Bound in black cloth with titles in yellow on the spine and cat and feather motif on front board. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no where. A hint of page toning but barely and no foxing. Remarkably well-preserved. Very attractive unclipped wrapper, ($2.00), has some small tape repairs on the inside edges and hinges but not visible from the front. Rubbing to hinges nicks to the spine ends. Spine panel toning. Still solid and bright and impossible to find in any condition. Presumably, so the story goes,(see The Passing Tramp Blog, Nov. 5, 2017), this book is almost a complete example of plagiarism, copying almost word for word, (with changed names and places), "The Back Bay Murders" by Roger Scarlett, published in 1930. A sharp collectable copy of a decidedly uncommon title with no other copies currently in the marketplace. (Hubin, p.26).
