Title: Proyecto de Revolucion
Author: Campero Leyes, Narciso
Seller: McBride Rare Books (United States)
Condition: Very good.
Description: Sucre: Imprenta de Beeche, 1857. Very good.. [8, i.e. 10],105pp. Original printed wrappers. Small quarto. Later, vaguely obtrusive manuscript additions in pencil to front wrapper. A few small nicks and minor wear to wraps. Internally quite clean. An ambitious design for a "Gran Escuela Central" for all in Bolivia, including native South Americans. The author was Narciso Campero Leyes, who enjoyed a long, successful career in the military and politics, capped by his tenure as President of Bolivia in the early 1880s. This work, published in 1857, was written just prior to his political career beginning in earnest. Its title, "Proyecto de Revolucion," reflects the ambition of the plan, which calls for multiple schools and departments for the intellectual, physical, moral, and religious education of all Bolivians, and is extensive enough to outline new railroads to transport future students. The present example contains two copies of the title page.

Title: [Record Book and Laid-In Items on the Establishment of a Baptist Conference]
Seller: Langdon Manor Books LLC (United States)
Condition: Very good
Description: Pennsylvania, 1862. Very good. 7¾” x 6¼”. Blue paper-covered boards. 57 handwritten pages (about 8,500 words) + 12 items laid in and 87 blank pp. at rear. Very good: boards and pastedowns moderately soiled. Laid-in items creased at old folds, lightly dust-soiled and worn. This is a handwritten record book, rich with membership lists, meeting notes and laid-in materials that reveal the efforts of Baptist churches in rural Pennsylvania uniting to form a “Confrens” [sic]. The tidy book has 107 dated entries between December 1836 and July 1843, with a dozen laid-in items dating 1841 to 1862. It lists (separately) the 26 males and 34 females involved in the work, which began when “a number of Baptist Brethren of different Churches met at the hous [sic] of Brother Edwin Smith in Bath.” They appointed leaders and delegates to visit other churches to “asertain [sic] their minds with regard to the propriety” of forming a union, and set plans for future meetings. An entry from January 1837 displays the group's “Articles of Faith,” including: “16. We believe an Association of Churches both prudent and useful, that is, that a number of Churches in sister relation, mutually agree to meet by their delegates, at stated seasons, for free conference on the matters that concern the general good of the Churches, and the Zion of God at large.” as well as the “Church Covinent [sic]”: “3. We promis [sic] to keep a faithful watch over each other; to provoke each other to love and good works; to be tender of the persons, charicters [sic] and estates of all who are united with us; to be just in our dealings both among ourselves and all men; and do good as we have opportunity, especially to the hous-hold [sic] of faith.” The book, and most of the laid-in items, concern the recommendation and acceptance of new members (about evenly split between “Brothers” and “Sisters”), listing names of individuals, churches and communities throughout the state. Thorough meeting notes detail “singing and prays,” the election of officers, association business, general “steadfastness in the laws of God” and a few dramatic disagreements and dismissals. Later entries focused on day-to-day activities at the Baptist church in Bath as well as interactions with “the Missionary Board and . . . their council.” Other laid-in items include a letterhead receipt for the Bath church's 1862 purchase of “The N.Y. Chronicle” and an invitation to a “Donation Visit” for the benefit of Reverend Edwin Brown “at his residence in Bath” in 1853. A full and meticulous record book revealing mid-19th century Baptist activity in Pennsylvania.

Title: Asian-American Activist Newspaper Combat Ethnic Weapons Opposes Medical and Biological Attacks
Author: Asian-Americans Combat Ethnic Weapons
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1971. [Asian-American] Combat Ethnic Weapons, vol. 1, no. 1. San Francisco: Coaltion Opposed to Medical and Biological Attack. 1971. Measures 11.5" x 7.5". Tabloid format newspaper. 12 pages. Created by the Asian Coalition in Opposition to Chemical and Biological Warfare and its application in Vietnam. Authors speculate that the U.S. military was crafting biological weapons that would only affect specific ethnicities. This conclusion is based on statistical analysis based on population and the types of chemicals utilized during warfare, as well as genetic markers that play into disease and fatalities. One chart lists various incapacitating CBW agents and their side effects. An example is the chemical Sarin, a nerve gas in which the informational chart breaks down respiration, and one thousandth of an ounce can be fatal. One section discusses the genetic differences between ethnic groups and certain enzymes being found among Black, Jewish, aboriginal, and Asian groups, and the chemicals that target them. Multiple illustrations throughout show diseased individuals of various races, as well as a harrowing photograph of U.S. military soldiers in uniform and gas masks testing a nerve gas detector. Some minor edge wear, overall very good condition. A public outcry against chemical warfare in response to the use and damaging affects of Agent Orange in Vietnam.

Title: Autobiography of Isaac Jones Wistar, 1827-1905: Half Century in War and Peace
Author: Wistar, Isaac Jones
Seller: Tschanz Rare Books (United States)
Description: Philadelphia: The Wistar Institute of Anatomy and Biology, 1937. 528pp. Quarto [26 cm] Blue cloth with the title gilt stamped on the front board and backstrip. Very good/Near fine. Spine of jacket sunned. Former owner's blind stamp on the endsheets. "When one not inordinately addicted to discoursing of himself begins to contemplate a lapse from such negative virtue...." Isaac J. Wistar, who never confused modesty with self-repression, opens his autobiography in this forbidding, Victorian language. But he soon shifts to easily written, easily read narrative, reflecting Dana's 'Two Years Before the Mast' in its salt-tanged sea tales; twinkling here and there with a roguish humor not unworthy of Mark Twain, his contemporary; and pausing at the end of blood-and-thunder passages for Wistar, the adventurer, to allow the scientific-minded Wistar to relate some wound treatment or psychological observation. For Wistar lived through remarkable times and made the most of them. He traveled across the continent with the vanguard of the Forty-Niners in a journey almost epic in itself. he earned and lost small fortunes as a miner, trapper, muleteer, speculator, and lawyer before he was thirty, such was his versatility. He never hesitated to pistol, club, or butt anyone who crossed him; yet the Governor of California singled him out to suppress the Vigilante rioters of 1856. He stood armed to fight Abolitionists and believed ardently in states rights; yet his privately raised regiment is credited with saving the Union at Gettysburg and in the Seven Days Battles. All these seeming inconsistencies become an orderly part of the picture of the day in Isaac J. Wistar's forceful writing of his autobiography. It is the last word from a leader of a vanished American generation." - from the jacket. Graff 4724. Howes W598.
