Description
Paris: Robert Pepie, 1688. Rare first edition of an account of an early trip to Quebec by Saint Vallier, the second Bishop of the Province and immediate successor to Laval. Saint-Vallier visited the country in 1685 three years before his consecration as Bishop in order to examine the state of the diocese. Lasting eighteen months, his itinerary included Quebec City, all the parishes along the St. Lawrence and Montreal, and following inland rivers and lakes eventually reached as far as Acadia. Upon his return he wrote a report in the form of a letter to a friend, giving a colorful account of various Indian tribes and their relations to French colonists. The work became a classic ethnography of French Canada and was reprinted in 1856. The copy offered here is highly unusual in containing an apparently unrecorded cancel of the first prefatory leaf (A, i.e. A2), making several orthographic corrections and rectifying the omission of a word. The collation of our copy contains one more leaf than the copy described in the NUC or the JCB copy. It finds a match only in the Church copy, where the additional leaf is explicitly described as a blank. Although beginning his ecclesiastical career as almoner to Louis XIV, Saint Vallier (1653-1727) was more attracted to missionary work than the court of Versailles. He spent 42 years as Bishop of Quebec and wrote the first catechism for French Canada.

Description
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1929. 8vo, publisher’s cloth, 272 pp. Very good with some light normal wear and some tanning to spine, cloth frayed at corners of board, no jacket.. Walter A. White was an activist and author who would eventually lead the NAACP beginning in 1929, the year of this book’s publication. He began his career as the assistant to James Weldon Johnson, traveling to the South to investigate lynchings and racial unrest. This book is the culmination of his work on the subject. Because of his lighter skin, he was able to pass as white, which made him able to escape physical danger on occasion while conducting his research. University of Notre Dame Press would later reproduce this work due to its scholarly value in 2002. This is an attractive copy of the first edition.
