Description
WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON (1773-1841). Harrison was the nineth and shortest-serving President. He held office for only a month.(POTAWATOMI NATION). A Native-American nation from the Great Lakes area, especially Michigan and Wisconsin, the Potawatomi belonged to the Northwestern Confederacy. This was an association of nations that formed after the American Revolution to protect their interests against those of the new United States. The Confederacy battled U.S. forces in the Northwest Indian War of 1786-95, which ended in defeat for its native participants. The Treaty of Greenville ended the war and forced the Confederacy to accept American governmental rulership and the loss of lands. The Potawatomi were involved in the fur trade and other trading.ADS. 1pg. [Fort] Greenville, [Ohio]. July 25, 1795. An autograph document signed Wm. H. Harrison as aide-de-camp to Major General Anthony Wayne. It reads The commissary will issue for the Putawatimies [sic] forty five pounds of flour & beef. Wm H Harrison. This brief military document was written just a few days before the Treaty of Greenville, named for this same Ohio fort, formally ended the Northwestern Confederacy. Harrison had served in the wars final battle and would sign the treaty as Waynes witness. It is in very good condition with a small hole.

1930. Florence: G. Orioli, 1930. Original cream paper boards decorated in orange-red, with printed spine label, with dust jacket. First Edition (issued as No. 4 in the publisher's "Lungarno Series"), consisting of 810 numbered copies -- of which this is No. 743. Lawrence had actually written this back in late 1925, after he and Frieda had returned from Taos to Europe for the last time. This Florence edition came out in May 1930, two months after D.H. Lawrence died in France; Secker's UK edition and Knopf's US edition came out that October and November respectively. It is the tale of the virginal daughter of a rector in a secluded English village, who yearns for something beyond what she knows, when a swarthy gipsy happens along... -- the basis for the 1970 film starring Honor Blackman. This volume is in fine condition, without soil or wear, and includes the spare label tipped in at the back; "fine" also describes the jacket ("... a green paper dust-jacket printed in black which is usually found to be faded to a brown colour" [Roberts]. Roberts A54. Housed in a handsome clamshell case of marbled boards, black leather spine, and red leather label.
