Description
Cleveland, OH: Brooks and Co. (Alfred Williams & Co., Raleigh, N.C. mentioned only on the front wrapper), 1883. Second edition (issued by a different publisher in the same year as the first, without the ads for western North Carolina businesses), so stated at the head of the front wrapper. 8vo. 374 pp. Illustrated from wood engravings (some of the illustrations by William A. Walker), plates, folding map (short tear repaired on verso). Clark "New South" 506 (for the first edition): "Extensive account of a hunting and sight-seeing journey into the western North Carolina mountains ... the authors had a good sense of geography and took pains to describe the countryside." Phillips "Bibliography of American Sporting Books," p. 418 (for the first edition): "Adventures in hunting and fishing; bears, deer, a cougar." Thornton 15513 (for the first edition). Weeks, p. 23 (for the first edition). This edition not mentioned in any of the bibliographies consulted. The rear wrapper prints press notices for the book from 15 newspapers and periodicals; the verso of the front wrapper prints an ad for the Swannanoa Hotel in Asheville, North Carolina. Very good. Original illustrated wrappers (chipped around the edges, front joint repaired with a cloth tape, spine partly eroded). (#6052).

1820. A Profound Influence in Spain, Portugal and Latin America [Arguelles, Augustin de (1776-1844)]. Discurso Preliminar a Constituicao Politica de Monarquia Hespanhola: Onde se Expoem os Fundamentos das Disposicoes da Mesma Constituicao. Lido nas Cortes Geraes, E Extraordinarias, Congregadas em Cadis em 1811, Nas Sessoes em Que a Commissao da Constituicao Apresentou o Projecto Desta. Traduzido do Hespanhol por R.F.C. Lisbon: Na Typografia Rollandiana, 1820. 157, [2] pp. Octavo (6-1/4" x 4-1/4"). Original plain blue paper wrappers, untrimmed edges, signatures uncut and unopened. Some wear to spine ends, internally fresh. $150. * First edition in Portuguese. Influential in Spain and Portugal, this essay on the Spanish constitution of 1812 was also a profound influence in Latin America. It was first delivered in 1811 before the Cortes that brought constitutional monarchy to Spain. This translation was prepared on the occasion of the revolution at Porto on August 24, 1820 that overthrew the regency and paved the way for the parliamentary deliberations that resulted in the Portuguese constitution of 1822. It also helped to inspire the Latin American independence movements of the 1820s. The identity of "R.F.C." is unknown. Arguelles was a Spanish statesman and diplomat. OCLC locates 2 copies (at Harvard Law School and the University of Kansas). Another copy located at the National Library of Portugal.
