Description
Charleston: Edward C. Councell, 1850. 23, [1 blank] pp. Stitched in original printed pale blue wrappers. Light foxing, Very Good. Inscribed by Barnwell on the front wrapper to Captain John Fripp. Elegant signatures on the plain rear wrapper of 'T.J. Capen Beaufort S.C.' Mourning the loss of the "great statesman," Barnwell says Calhoun was "struck down in his sphere of high and responsible duty, just at the time when his services were most needed," during the "crisis in our national affairs." He watched over South Carolina's "political welfare, with a sleepless vigilance- never failed to warn her of even distant danger- never hesitated to front every foe that assailed her." Captain John Fripp owned a large and lucrative plantation on St. Helena Island, Beaufort, South Carolina. This leading citizen served as Justice of the Peace, commissioner of free schools, and delegate to the Southern Rights Convention. FIRST EDITION. III Turnbull 85. Not in Sabin, Eberstadt, Decker.

Description
New York: Dix, Edwards & Co, 1857. [JUVENILE]. A. BOBBETT, engraver. 12mo; 71pp; red glazed cloth over board, blind-stamped fillets with corner ornaments, gilt-stamped title on front and spine; pale blue endpapers; gift inscription from a teacher to a pupil on the ffep; 9 small engraved illustrations; light hand soiling to boards, scrape on the front board; near fine. A sweet dedication from the author to his "blue-eyed boy of two summers" informs him that he is the hero of the first story, "Town and Country," where the advantages of life in towns and in the country are debated. The second story, "The Voices in the Shells" is a story in Fairy Land, introducing us to King Oberon, Queen Tatania, Queen Mab, Puck, the Toad-King, and the fairies. Both stories are unusual for this time period for their lack of religious overtures. A wonderful engraving of Queen Mab riding on the back of a bat appears on page 28. Richard Henry Stoddard (1825-1903) was an American author and poet. Early in his career, he contributed to the Knickerbocker Magazine, Putnam's Monthly Magazine, and the New York Evening Post. He was later an editor at Vanity Fair and The Aldine, a typographical and art journal. This book is an early publication.

One view has a short closed tear to the foot that has been repaired with tape. All views have nice contrasts. Three nice views of a nicely dressed man behind the wheel of a convertible. Two of the views are bird's eye showing the car rounding a corner on a dire road. The other view shows the vehicle parked with a driver, while a small group of nicely dressed men wave their hats.
