Description
New-York: Hopkins & Morris, 1825. Wraps. Poor. 8vo. 40pp. Printed paper wraps, unsophisticated. Wraps well soiled and worn; binding nearly perished; pages rough and soiled along the edges but not affecting text. A fair copy only. Preserved in a custom clamshell case. Begins with a excerpt from Jefferson's Notes on Virginia and continues with sections on the effect of the atmosphere on electricity, vision and sound. "Looming" refers to distant objects sometimes appearing abnormally large, a phenomenon which Hopkins attributes to the affects of fog. Contains a full-page letter from Th. Jefferson commending Hopkins’ “hypothetical speculation” and deploring the fact that “Electricity stands where Dr. Franklin’s early discoveries placed it.” First edition with Hopkins' name on the title. "Published in ... 1822 and ... 1823 under the fictitious signature of Hortensius." - Pref. Rare. No copy at auction since 1965. S&S 9056.

Illustrated by Engravings. 24mo (5 ¾" x 3 ¾"); 24pp; pale peach wrapper, front wrapper title and publisher surrounded by a border of fancy printer's ornaments (a sid-wheeler steam ship on the top flying an American flag, and an open double-decker railroad car at the bottom), a vignette of flowers under the title; the rear wrapper is a publisher's ad for his "CHEAP BOOKSTORE" at 199 Main Street, Worcester; publisher's string binding; engraved vignette of a fox on the title page; 3 full page illustrations, head and tail piece; soiling to wrapper, title and first page with damage to fore-edge not extending into the print area, spotting throughout; very good minus. (AAS 223140). Fourteen fables from Aesop, some told in rhyming verse: The Fox and the Grapes, The Fox and the Tortoise, The Shepherd's Boy, The Fox and the Goat, The Ass in the Lion's Skin, The Dog and the Water Dog, The Wolf and the Crane, The Dog in the Manger; Hercules and the Clown, The Lark and Her Yonug [sic] Ones, The Doves and Hawk, The Groom and the Horse, The Lion and Other Beasts, and The Owl and the Nightingale.
