Condition
Very good.
Description
ca1875. As found.. Very good.. A Berlin Work book-mark made up by applying a matrix (90 x 25 mm) for the gold to a strip of white silk (430 x 25 mm). The name, "L'esperance" is spelled out with small, solid gold beads, pierced and threaded together. The weight is appx. 0.1 Troy oz. L'esperance is a solid rock out-cropping in the South Pacific constituting the southern most of the Kermadec Islands north of New Zealand. One can only imagine the story behind this artifact given the series of gold rushes in Australia and New Zealand during the closing decades of the 19th century and celebration of such a dramatic geologic anomaly as L'esperance. See Howgego III, 423-432.

Description
London: Printed by Charles Squire for Sherwood, Neely, and Jones, 1812. 32pp, with the half title. Disbound, with some loosening. Light tan and fox, Very Good. Inscription, slightly trimmed, at head of half title: 'The Hon. Geo. Bradley, with Mr. Dickins's ComplimentsLondon, February 15, 18__.' Arnot takes a critical look at British policies under George III. Throughout his reign "our national councils have been misguided, and policy mistaken." He scores England's actions that led to the American Revolution, "a storm of rebellion, excited by measures equally impolitic, oppressive, and unjust, and ending in the premature, unnatural, and violent dismemberment of a valuable portion of the empire."
