Description
1849. First Edition. THOREAU, Henry David. A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers. Boston and Cambridge: James Munroe, 1849. Octavo, original brown cloth gilt; housed in a custom chemise and half morocco slipcase. $25,000.First edition, first issue, of Thoreau’s first book, one of only 1000 copies printed and one of less than 400 copies in the publisher's cloth, a beautiful copy from the famed collection of Arthur Swann.In residence at Walden Pond, ""Thoreau's first concentrated effort (was) to assemble, flesh out, and then rearrange material about the trip he and (his brother) John had taken on the Concord and Merrimack rivers… in August and September of 1842… A Week literally evolved from Thoreau's materials at hand… It is the first of the many American books shaped along a river trip, the first in which the river becomes a stream, not just of water or even of time, but of consciousness itself"" (Richardson, 155). Despite some good reviews, the first edition (consisting of one thousand copies) did not sell. Thoreau wrote, ""For a year or two past, my publisher, falsely so called, has been writing from time to time to ask what disposition should be made of the copies of A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers still on hand, and at last suggesting that he had use for the room they occupied in his cellar. So I had them all sent to me here, and they have arrived today by express, filling the man's wagon-706 copies [256 bound copies and 450 still in sheets] out of an edition of 1000 which I bought of Munroe four years ago and have ever since been paying for, and have not quite paid for yet. The wares are sent to me at last, and I have an opportunity to examine my purchase… Of the remaining two hundred and ninety and odd, seventy-five were given away, the rest sold. I have now a library of nearly nine hundred volumes, over seven hundred of which I wrote myself"" (Harding, 254). In 1862, 595 copies of the first edition were bought from Thoreau by Ticknor and Fields and rebound with a new title page bearing their imprint. Borst A1.1a1. Allen, pp. 2-5. BAL 20104. With the bookplate of Arthur Swann. Swann's collection, known for the excellence of its copies, was auctioned in 1960 at the Parke-Bernet Galleries in New York. In the catalogue for the auction, this copy is described as ""an unusually fine copy,"" noting ""the very important point that the imprint at the foot of the backstrip is intact; this imprint is usually defective or entirely lacking.""A few contemporary ink marks to text block fore-edge, lower front joint with an expert cloth repair. A beautiful copy.

Description
Guatemala: Imprenta de Joachin de Arevalo, 1756. Very good plus.. [23]pp. Small quarto. Later marbled wrappers. Very light dampstaining at fore-edge, otherwise minor toning and dust soiling. A quite rare, mid-18th-century Guatemalan imprint, comprising a pastoral letter by Francisco José de Figueredo y Victoria, the Archbishop of Guatemala, that advises immediate and intense penitence by worshippers in the wake of the Great Lisbon Earthquake, which struck the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa on November 1, 1755, and destroyed the Portuguese capital. Figueredo was a native of New Granada and became the Bishop of Popayán before being installed as Archbishop of Guatemala in 1753. In the present letter to the public, he ruminates on the numerous biblical exemplars of natural disasters and calls upon the faithful to exercise themselves strenuously in prayer and penitence as a response to such obvious and devastating Divine Justice. "Los Terremotos son voces, son avisos de Dios," he argues, and advises the avid and earnest repetition of the sacraments as the most important response. We locate only two copies in U.S. institutions, at Berkeley and the JCB. Beristain I, p.442. Medina, Guatemala 257.

Description
1875. The Elms | Rickmansworth | July 23 - 75". In purple ink, one page of a bifolium. In 1875, "George Eliot" was Marian (or Mary Ann) Evans Lewes -- Evans being her maiden last name, and Lewes being the last name of the married man she had been living with since 1854. That summer, the couple rented "The Elms," wanting seclusion -- specifically so that she could write her next (and final) novel, which would become DANIEL DERONDA, published in 1876. It would be a groundbreaking novel, in that it revolved around an English gentleman who discovers his Jewish roots. The novel tackles Jewish identity and culture with respect, avoiding stereotypes; it furthermore espouses the idea of a restored Jewish homeland. DANIEL DERONDA is often credited with playing a significant role in early Zionist thought, which 75 years later would result in the establishment of Israel. The text of the letter, in the author's hand, reads: Dear Mr. Trübner | Since there is no hope of getting [???] of Hamburger's Real-Encyclopädie des Judentums, which was to have [???] _Talmudic and Rabbinical_ Judaism, can you get me a substitute for it in some other work? It is a very pressing want for me. | Also I should be much obliged if you will procure for me Schudt's _Jüdische Merckwürdigkeiten_, which is cited by Grätz [Heinrich, author of the 11-volume Geschichte der Juden (History of the Jews)] as if it was a well-known work. | I hasten to trouble you with these requests before your holiday carries you out of reach. | Yours very sincerely | ME Lewes Nicholas Trübner (born Nikolaus in Heidelberg in 1817, died in 1884), was a German-English publisher, bookseller and linguist (he had studied Sanskrit and Hebrew in his younger years); in 1843 he emigrated to London, courtesy of William Longman, and by 1875 he was a well-established London publisher himself, specializing in philosophical works and imported books from the U.S. (which he visited), India and "the Orient." Notably, between 1874 and 1879 Trübner was publishing George Henry Lewes's major late-career work PROBLEMS OF LIFE AND MIND -- which connection undoubtedly prompted the writing of this letter from Lewes's common-law wife (though there ARE other letters from her to Trübner in, for example, 1865, 1871, 1878, and 1879). It is noteworthy that "Eliot" is requesting books in the original German -- a reminder that she was fluent in that language: Marian Evans's very first book, begun in her mid-twenties and published in 1846, was her uncredited translation of Strauss's DAS LEBEN JESU into THE LIFE OF JESUS. The letter is in near-fine condition -- the purple ink is a little faded in places (prompting those question marks above), but there is scarcely any wear or soil. "George Eliot was not Jewish, but Daniel Deronda was researched and published before the rise of Zionism as a philosophy and movement... She not only took on the “Jewish question” in the novel, she brought it to the forefront of minds throughout England and the world, tackling it gracefully and thoroughly. In 1920, Great Britain took ownership of Mandatory Palestine, the territory that Zionists looked to for their settlement. The United Nations, Great Britain included, voted to partition Israel in 1948. International and British sympathies made Israel possible, and Eliot helped foster those sympathies in the British populace" [P. Dutton].
