Description
FELIX FRANKFURTER (1882-1965). Frankfurter was a Supreme Court Justice appointed by Franklin Roosevelt.ALS. 1pg. Sunday. Washington, DC. An autograph letter signed Felix to the prominent naval historian Samuel Eliot Morison, referring to his article on Horatio Nelson: Having just read your Nelson piece in the London Observer (gaily supplemented by H. Nicolson's conjugal account of the hero), I want to thank you for the pleasure of it. I said to Marion Sam is one of the few writers who uniformly delights me. Moreover, while I read Mahan in my early years, you, above all, nourished my interest in, and enlightened my mind, in so far as I have interest in and enlightened on matters naval. Mahan is a reference to Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan, a naval officer and naval historian. The letter is on green stationery with a faint central mailing fold and is in fine condition.

Description
San Jose, CA: The Rosicrucian Order, A.M.O.R.C., 1934. First Edition. Quarto, illustrated boards (hardcover), [72] pp. Good+, with wear to edges and spine. From Preliminary Explanation: The Book of Jasher is one of the long-lost, and long sought for, sacred books which should have been included among the other books of the Bible but which was not because the original manuscript could not be located. In addition to the two references to the Book of Jasher that will be found in the other books of the Bible there are historical references to this lost manuscript and it is only natural that in recent centuries a great many stories should have been invented purporting to tell how and why the Book of Jasher became lost, hidden, or suppressed. In order that some of the mystery regarding the Book of Jasher might be removed, and, furthermore, for the benefit of those students of the Bible who sincerely desire to read another record of the events that are presented in the Old Testament, we have thought it well to reporduce the Book of Jasher in its original text as given to the world by the man who claims to have found it and prserved it. In order that our reproduction of this rare book should be without error or change, we have resorted to the very elaborate, complicated, and costly method of photographing each and every page of the Book of Jasher as issued by Alcuin and reproduce it in special paper by the rotogravure process. This, therefore, gives us a truly photographic reproduction of each page of the original book by Alcuin. We feel sure, therefore, that our readers will enjoy these reproductions beginning with the original title page of the book and noting not only the interesting style of typography and arrangement of matter but the original and excellent language used by Alcuin. The pages as they appear in this book have not been reduced in size or altered in any manner, and only the cover of the book, the first title page, and this explanation are original with us. Attention is called to the many uniqe phrases found in the early chapters of the Book of Genesis in regard to the creation of the universe and of man and woman. It should be kept in mind that the original author of the Book of Jasher was born during the lifetime of Moses and lived in association and companionship with him. Therefore the first part of the book was written by this author from the records and traditions that had been preserved by his ancestors. The latter part of the book is based upon what he observed himself during his lifetime. consequently we have in the Book of Jasher a new witness ot many interesting events and a new presentation of ancient records with a more careful translation and interpretation of the matters which were held sacred by his ancestors. The original introduction and explanatory matter which precedes the text of the book should be carefully read in order that the importance of the book and its translation may be appreciated.
