Description
London:: John W. Parker, 1859., 1859. 8vo. viii, [2], 614 pp. Foxing. Original brown morocco, dual gilt-rules, raised bands, gilt-stamped spine, brick-red cloth sides, a.e.g., dark green endsheets. Very good. With a panoramic fore-edge painting found along the three edges, being British golfing scenes. There is a set of photographs of the painting included, probably taken by the former owner, but showing on the back sides that the photographic paper is KODAK paper and a sponsor of the Olympic Games, which Kodak was famously a sponsor from 1896 till 2008, thus the paintings are pre-2008.

Description
1860 Thanksgiving Sermon of New Orleans Presbyterian Minister "The Providential Trust" of the South "is to conserve and to perpetuate the institution of domestic slavery as now existing." "We defend the cause of God and religion. The Abolition spirit is undeniably atheistic." One of the Most Influential Secessionist Speeches, Delivered Three Weeks After Lincoln's Election Pamphlet in original wraps, spine reinforced with cloth tape some time ago, vertical crease and other light wear, paper remnants adhering to outer back wrap, faint blindstamp of Massachusetts Historical Society on page 12. First printing of this oft reprinted secessionist, pro-slavery speech by a prominent racist Calvinist. Times do change, though. In 2021 a New Orleans park named for Palmer was rededicated to jazz patriarch Ellis Marsalis.
