Description:
New York: Charles Scribner, 1852 First edition of one of the earliest anti-Uncle Tom novels, published in the same year as Stowe's book. . Publisher's brown cloth. Spine titled in gilt. . Twelvemo. Frontispiece and five plates. Edgewear and sunning to spine. Modern century bookplate to front pastedown. Modern paper slip (with title of book) tipped in on front flyleaf. Some foxing and toning. A good copy of a pro-slavery novel. The present work was one of the many novels published in response to Uncle Tom's Cabin. It tells the story of Frank, who is persuaded by abolitionists to flee from slavery in the south. The abolitionists promise that Frank can find a prestigious career in the north, but, instead, they press him into the enslavement of low-wage work. In the end, members of the American Colonization Society pay for Frank's passage to Liberia, where he can supposedly find a better life. Like Sarah J. Hale's Liberia (1853), it asserts that enslaved people should be freed on the condition that they…

Spine and covers ruled in gilt, gilt spine lettering. Quarto. Wood-engraved illustrations throughout. Binding extremities lightly rubbed, corners bumped. Otherwise very good. In his book, The Illustrator and the Book in England from 1790 to 1914, Gordon Ray states that "this is the most ambitious English book with wood engravings during the period under survey. Ray also included a proof or printer's copy in his exhibit catalogue, remarking "This is a rarity of Victorian bookmaking, an India-paper copy printed on one side of the page only. Small editions of the outstanding French illustrated books of the period were issued on papier de Chine as a matter of course, and collectors now regard them as treasures. That an English published in this instance followed the French example is further testimony to the importance attached to The Book of…

Description:
London: Chapman and Hall, Ltd., 1909 First edition. Publisher's green cloth titled in black. . Octavo. Some stains, likely paint, to front cover. Contemporary bookplate to front pastedown and four contemporary ink ownership stamps of the National Council of Women (two to front flyleaf, one to half-tile, one to title-page). Toning to endpapers. A very good, tight, internally clean copy. Argues that women should be considered workers in a marriage and, therefore, extended the same rights as workers outside the home. In the preface, the author writes, "The love of man and woman is, no doubt, a thing of infinite importance; but also of infinite importance is the manner in which woman earns her bread and the economic conditions under which she enters the family and propagates the race. Thus an inquiry into the circumstances under which the wife and mother plies her trade seems…necessary and justifiable…It will not be disputed that the manner in which a human being earns his livelihood tends to mold…

Later nineteenth-century calf over marbled boards, gilt spine with burgundy morocco labels, edges sprinkled red.

She was "one of the earliest British pioneers of the theories of Pestalozzi" (Stewart & McCann, p. 14), and was much admired by Maria Edgeworth. She also wrote social criticism, somewhat in the style of Goldsmith's Citizen of the World, and books on Scottish manners and customs, which earned the…
