Description
New York: Boni & Liveright, 1926. First edition. Near Fine/Very Good. A Near Fine copy of the book in Very Good only dust jacket. Book clean and fresh, with a small Nashville bookseller's label on the rear paste-down. Dust jacket only Very Good on account of some moderate chipping at the spine ends and corners, one inch tear near the crown repaired on the verso with tape. Flap folds starting to crack, reinforced on the verso with archival binder's tape. Spine a bit toned. An uncommon book in dust jacket, one of just 2500 copies originally printed. Housed in a custom black quarter-leather slipcase with chemise. "Soldier's Pay is William Faulkner's first published novel. It begins with a train journey on which two American soldiers, Joe Gilligan and Julian Lowe, are returning from the First World War. There they meet a scarred, lethargic, and withdrawn fighter pilot, Donald Mahon, who was presumed dead by his family. The novel continues to focus on Mahon and his slow deterioration, and the various romantic complications that arise upon his return home...Though the novel was a commercial failure at the time of its publication, Faulkner's subsequent fame has ensured its long-term success" (Standard Books). Over time, the themes of psychological damage and ideological disillusionment that were so uncomfortable to readers just emerging from the war came to be praised for their rawness and honesty. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket.

London: R. Burleigh [false imprint for E. Curll], 1716. First edition. Bound to style in quarter calf over marbled boards with gilt to spine. All edges marbled. Measuring 185 x 112mm and collating complete including half title: [4], iii, [1, blank], 39, [1, blank]. With catchword 'behold' on page 27 and floral ornament above 'Finis' on page 39 as called for. A Fine example, unmarked and fresh. A scarce piece of erotic satire, ESTC records copies at 11 U.S. institutions. It last sold at auction in 1929, and the present is the only first edition on the market. "Begin my Muse and sing in Epick train The Petticoat; Nor shall thou sing in vain, The Petticoat will sure reward thy pain!" So opens a satire composed under the pseudonym Mr. Gay (used by several of those hacks in Edmund Curll's employ), which traces how the amorous adventures of Thyrsis and Chloe were made possible by the latter's fashionable hooped skirt. Finding both humor and seriousness in women's fashion, The Petticoat points out how some of the clothing designed to hinder women's movement could actually be adapted to their advantage -- in this case, the pursuit and fulfillment of illicit sexual affairs. For just as Thyrsis is able to hide beneath his lover's skirt to conceal himself while pleasing her, Chloe is able to share this information with her female coterie (including the work's readers). Thus, women desirous of hiding lovers of any gender might deploy this ingenious method, allowing them to engage in affairs without traveling far from home. An acknowledgement of women's own sexual desire and agency. ESTC T43929. Unspeakable Curll 241-242. Not in the Register of Erotic Books.

Description
1804. (TURKEY) (DALVIMART, Octavien). The Costume of Turkey, Illustrated by a Series of Engravings; with Descriptions in English and French. London: William Miller, 1804. Folio (11 by 14 inches), contemporary full plum morocco gilt, all edges gilt. $4700.Second edition, later issue, of this ""delineation with fidelity of the various modes of dress and peculiarity of customs"" of Turkey, with 60 vividly hand-colored full-page plates after drawings by Octavien Dalvimart. Attractively bound in contemporary morocco.The Costume of Turkey was one of a series of six costume books published by William Miller over a four-year period. Each hand-colored plate, drawn from life in 1798 by Octavien Dalvimart and stipple-engraved by John Dadley and William Poole, is accompanied by an explanation of the figure's role, responsibility and details of dress, written by Miller (misattributed by Hiler to William Alexander). ""The drawings, from which these plates have been engraved, were made on the spot… and may be depended upon for their correctness. They have been most accurately attended to in the progress of the engraving; and each impression has been carefully colored according to the original drawing, that the fidelity of them might not be impaired."" The popularity of these books created the demand for successive reprints—although the title page of this copy indicates the 1804 second edition, the text is printed on paper watermarked 1828 and 1829, and the plates are printed on paper watermarked ""J. Whatman 1834,"" and it contains later reprints of Plates 21, 22 and 53, re-engraved by Poole. Text in English and French. Abbey, Travel 370. See Colas 782; Hiler, 16; Lowndes, 530. Text and plates generally clean and fine, expert restoration to joints, spine ends and corners. An attractive folio in contemporary morocco-gilt.

1686. (JAMES II) JOHNSTON, Nathaniel. The Excellency of Monarchical Government, Especially of the English Monarchy… In all which The Principles and Practices of our late Commonwealths-Men are Considered. London: Printed by T.B. for Robert Clavel, 1686. Folio (8 by 12-1/2 inches), full period-style blind ruled speckled calf, red morocco spine label, raised bands. $2500.Second edition of Johnston's defense of James II, published only two years before England’s Glorious Revolution forced the king into exile, handsomely bound.Throughout his few embattled years on the throne, James II remained ""a divine-right absolutist who believed that parliament had the right to offer advice and criticism and even propose legislation, but that he had the right if he so chose to reject all of it"" (Schama II:309). But James II's reign ended in 1688 with England's Glorious Revolution, which established that ""the king was at last no more than an official of the state"" (Fraser, 384). That event provoked great interest across the Atlantic, for ""the historical phasing of the defense of liberty in England was a matter of great importance to the [American] colonists not merely because it illustrated the characteristic dangers liberty faced but also because it made clear their own special role in history"" (Bailyn, 80). Initially published the very year James II rose to the throne, physician Nathaniel Johnston's Excellency of Monarchical Government insists on royal sovereignty with arguments Parliament soon overturned, and America challenged soon afterwards. One of several works Johnston wrote after he moved to London in 1686 ""Excellency largely followed Hobbes and… shows considerable knowledge of English chroniclers and legal authorities"" (DNB). Second edition, preceded by exceedingly scarce 1685 edition. With errata, five pages of advertisements at rear. Wing J877. Lowndes, 1223. Occasional faint foxing to text. A handsomely bound copy.

Oxford: Excudebat Iosephus Barnesius, 1616. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Small quarto. Collation: [par.]4 2[par.]4 A-3K4 3L*4 3L-4L4 4M2 (lacking final blank leaf 4M2). Without a binder's blank at the front, and at the back a stub bearing traces of MS annotations; this was excised at the same time as the bespoke integral blank 4M2. Pagination: [16], 439, 444-452, [8], 453-645, [1] pp. Contemporary English ivory vellum, triple blind fillets around sides, smooth spine edges stained red. Blindstamps of the Theological Institute of Connecticut (now known as the Hartford Seminary). NB: In 1976 a collection of more than 200,000 books the Hartford Seminary Library were purchased by Emory University, including this one --> deaccessioned from Pitts Theology Library. ¶ First Complete Edition, and the first edition printed in England -- an excellent copy in contemporary English vellum. Scarce: our copy is apparently the only copy in the market. ¶ Nicholas Fuller (c.1557-1623), of Oxford, "the most admired critic of his time" (Athenae Oxonienses), was an English Hebraist and theologian whose skill in Semitic languages was recognized by his contemporaries including Buxtorf. Yet few of Fuller's works were published during his lifetime. His "Miscellaneorum theologicorum," a.k.a. "Miscellaneorum sacrorum libri," was reprinted several times, and contains a series of comments on difficult or controversial biblical texts. The present edition contains an entirely new book (Lib. IV) and Fuller's autobiographical preface, upon which the entry in the Athenae Oxonienses is based. ¶ Books 1-3 of the "Miscellaneorum" were first published at Heidelberg in 1612; for the present 1616 Oxford edition these were corrected by Fuller himself and printed under the author's own supervision by Joseph Barnes, the first printer of the Oxford University Press. Concerning Barnes, Madan writes: "In 1585 the University lent 100 Pounds Sterling to Joseph Barnes, bookseller of Oxford, with which to establish a press, and an ordinance of Star Chamber of the following year specially allowed one press and one apprentice at Oxford, besides a chief printer. It is know that Barnes lives first in a house in the High Street, and next at what is now St. Mary's entry, and there worked as sold Printer to the University until 1617, most of the products of his press being theological, whether sermons or treatise" (Madan, A Brief Account of the University Press at Oxford, p. 25). Barnes died in 1618, but "during his lifetime his shop seems to have been a convivial meeting place for college fellows and may have circulated London newspapers, making it a precursor of later coffee-shops" (Cambridge History of the Book in Britain vol. IV [1557-1695], p. 669). There can be no doubt that Fuller, having entrusted his MS with Barnes, was a regular! ¶ "Fuller's writings contain ample evidence of his expertise as a Semitic scholar. It is evident from the comments he makes in 'Miscellaneorum sacrorum libri' that he recognizes the importance of cognate languages such as Syriac, Arabic, and Aramaic for understanding the Hebrew Bible, and is clearly well versed in them. He also appreciates the comments of medieval rabbis for elucidating textual difficulties. While he draws much on the leading Christian transmitters of Hebrew learning such as Nicholas de Lyre, Pagninus, Muenster, Tremellius, and Fagius, he often records his debt to the principal Jewish exegetes and grammarians. He obviously had firsthand knowledge of what he calls the 'rabbinica expositio' of certain words. He cites Rashi frequently. He refers to David Kimchi as 'doctissimus Hebraeorum grammaticus' (Critici sacri, ix.2, 862) and quotes from his grammar and lexicon. He regards Ibn Ezra as a leading rabbinic authority and describes him as 'magni nominis rabbinus' (Critici sacri, ix.2, 892)" -- Oxford DNB. ¶ REFERENCES: Madan, Oxford Books, p. 105.

Some darkening of the cloth at edges, with light fraying at spine ends, in a dustjacket with some toning and discoloration, with shallow chipping and loss to the edges. The verso of the printed dustjacket is a WW2 Ministry of Defense map of East Sumatra, a not unusual but still delightful aspect of post-war London publishing (essentially the Wyn imprint was identical to the UK edition, and was printed in London). Internally clean. Top edge stained orange. A handsome, readable copy of three of Čapek's notable novels, translated for English speaking audiences. The word genius was used frequently by Čapek's contemporary admirers, and perhaps unusually, remains applicable to the intensely observant and short lived author of "R.U.R.", the groundbreaking work that gave us the word "Robot.

Small spot on back cover. "Our twenty years of experience with Cancer ... demonstrates the Williams Treatment (potential cauterization), in our hands,, based upon these figures, to be far more certain and dependable in its results than are the knife, radium, and x-ray in the treatment of Cancer. Potential cauterization is described in more detail on page 9. This volume contains lots of testmonials. In addition to individual testimonials, pages 94 -132 contain lists organized by State (and provinces in Canada) of "some" of their former patients identified by name and town who could be contacted for for reference about their treatment of cancers by the Williams method. A large orange slip tipped in along the inside of the first interior page announces that Williams Sanatorium had relocated to Hudson, Minnesota (which happened in 1932). Hudson is described as lying 20 miles east of the Twin Cities and situated on the East Bank of the St. Croix River. Hudson was the hometown of Boyd T. Williams. He continued to operate his Sanatorium for the treatment of cancer out of his home in Hudson until about 1947.
