Description:
London; from March 30, 1850-May 28, 1859: (Bradbury and evans). Octavo. In 19 volumes, double-column. A weekly collection of stories, a mixture of fiction and nonfiction along with social issues of the time. While Dickens was the editor and he did serialize a few of his stories through this magazine, it have several "unnamed" contributors. An American edition was published but not well received as it pertained to the English way of life not American. Complete London editions are scarce. A complete set bound in 3/4 contemporary red morocco over marbled paper covered boards with matching endpapers, all edges marbled., raised bands gilt, title within one compartment gilt. All hinges and joints are fine and tight, internally clean and bright without foxing. Some rubbing or darkening to bindings. From the library Joseph Greene with his armorial bookplate. A very nice set containing six of the nine extra Christmas numbers.

1845 Davy Crockett TEXAS Battle of the Alamo INDIANS Mexico Creek War America 2v"I know, that obscure as I am, my name is making a considerable deal of fuss in the world."
― Davy Crockett
Davy Crockett has long been one of the most iconic American folk heroes. While his legend has grown immensely since his military and political adventures, he did make an impact on the shape of the United States in the 19th-century.
In 1834, prior to the Texas Revolution, Crockett began writing his autobiography, now known as 'Narrative of the Life of David Crockett'. This work provides a full and complete discourse of his journey through Tennessee all the way to Texas into San Antonio. It also gives insight to the military and political engagements of Crockett but focuses heavily on his wars with Native Americans and Mexicans, particularly the Creek War, Texas War, and the Battle of the Alamo.
Crockett's 'Narrative' was published throughout the 19th-century including this 1845 two-volume edition. This particular… Read More

Description:
1828 HUGE FOLIO Adventures of Telemachus Bartolomeo Pinelli ART Greek Mythology"The Adventures of Telemachus" is a famous French novel by Fenelon; a story that was intended to be a supplement to Homer's 'Odyssey' following the travels of Telemachus, son of Ulysses. It was highly controversial upon its release, as the majority of French readership took Fenelon's story as a critical and satirical portrayal of Louis XIV.
In 1828, Italian illustrator Bartolomeo Pinelli created impressive artwork for the famed story; however, unlike similar collections of story art from the 19th-century, this absolutely enormous volume contains 100 elephant-folio illustrations of Pinelli's art of 'Telemachus'. A truly remarkable tome!
