Description
London: John Murray, 1876. First edition. Fine. Octavo (20 cm); viii, 482 pages. Advertisements for other works of the author on the verso of the title, 3-line errata slip tipped in prior to Chapter One. Original cloth. Owner's name in ink and old bookseller notations in pencil on front free endpaper. Else a fine copy in remarkably fresh condition. Reference: Freeman, 1249. In his eye-opening re-appraisal of Darwin's botanical books, Oliver Sachs wrote that Darwin's botanical studies were "engines of war, great missles of evidence lobbed at the skeptics of his theory of natural seledtion" (The River of Consciousness). Sachs observes that the botanical studies are "even more overwhelming" than the author's magnum opus, The Origin of Species, in its presentation of natural seledtion as the basic fact of evolution.

Description
Cleveland, Ohio: Stouffer Foods Corporation, 1962. Very good.

Although, most people associate Stouffer's with frozen food, the story actually began in 1898 in Cleveland, when James Stouffer and his son Abraham opened a creamery at a local market. After James' death in 1908, Abraham and his wife took over and grew the business, opening their first restaurant, called Stouffer Lunch, in 1924. By the 1930s, the company had restaurants in Detroit, Pittsburgh, and New York and by the 1960s - it has also expanded into the hotel business. The current booklet contained a variety of cocktails, "which had proved to be favorites" to the establishments' guests, including Frozen Pine Valley Cocktail, Scorpion Punch, and Cloud 666. It also contained a liquor dictionary, glassware guide, and appetizer suggestions.
