Description:
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1840. First Edition; BAL 4434; “asserted and generally accepted” (but not definitively established) second printing; binding B (tan muslin); state 3 (no priority is established or suggested regarding either binding or the three known states of the muslin). These points are often erroneously referred to as “issues.” This is loose usage of a specific term: printing, state, issue and edition are often used willy-nilly, as if they are interchangeable, although they are not. Rebacked and mended, with a contemporary ownership signature (”Appleton”). Good; in a custom clamshell box.

Darwin.” Just below, George has endorsed it at Haverford [Pennsylvania] on April 16, 1906, also signing the verso of the leaf, which bears his calculations, “(mathematical work by G.H. Darwin Apr 16 1906).” George, a prominent astronomer and mathematician, married a Philadelphian. [With] a…

Inscribed by Davies on the dedication page, and signed by him again on the front free endpaper, under which it has also been signed by Walter Huston, Eleanor Parker, and others who appeared in the 1943 film. Due to its pro-Stalinist nature, the film came under fire after the war. However, heavy-handed propaganda as it was, the Soviet Union was then our ally in a life and death struggle.
