Description:
London: T. Woodward, J. Walthoe, J. Peele, T. Longman, T. Shewell, C. Hitch, A. Miller & J. Rivington, 1748. Fifth edition, corrected. Small octavo. Four volumes. Bound in full contemporary brown calf with a single blind-stamped border on the covers and blind-stamped tooling on board edges; spine with raised bands and a single gilt-lettered label; wood-engraved initials and headpieces. Large armorial bookplates of The Marquess of Sligo at Westport House, else fine.. A remarkably bright and well-preserved collection of the essays by Thomas Gordon (1691-1750) and John Trenchard (1662-1723) that, perhaps more than any other written work, influenced the minds of American colonists in the years leading up to the American Revolution. The 144 essays that are contained in the four volumes were originally published by Gordon and Trenchard in the London Journal between 1720 and 1723 under the pseudonym "Cato," the relentless opponent of Julius Caesar and committed champion of republican principles.

Description:
New York: Random House, 1964. First edition, first printing. Octavo. Original blue cloth and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Some edgewear to dust jacket along head and foot; small chip to base of spine; rubbing to panels with an abrasion to rear dust jacket panel. Fine in a very good dust jacket.. First edition of Cold Friday, published posthumously by Random House in 1964 after the death of Whittaker Chambers (1901-1961) in 1961. Although Chambers became a household name after the publication of his influential autobiography Witness in 1952, it is in Cold Friday that the full breadth of Chambers' poignant vision is unfurled throughout posthumously published essays, diary entries, and correspondence. Compiled by long-time friend and colleague Duncan Norton-Taylor (former managing editor of Fortune), Cold Friday documents the despair, illness, and courage of Chambers' final years after testifying before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in 1948 and against Alger Hiss in the… Read More

Description:
Chicago: Henry Regnery Company, 1959. First edition. Octavo. Original black cloth and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Dusting and spotting to page block; two leaves (pp. 176, 177) joined together at bottom (affecting text), each with a closed one-inch tear at bottom; closed one-inch tear to the right bottom corner of front jacket panel; edgewear to base and spine; faint smudging and rubbing to dust jacket. Inscribed by James Burnham on front free endpaper. Very good in very good dust jacket.. A rarely inscribed work by James Burnham (1905-1987). Burnham was an American political philosopher, theorist, and political commentator who became a prominent leader of the post-war American conservative intellectual movement. During the 1930s Burnham was a Trotskyist activist who, along with Sidney Hook, organized the American Workers Party and, in 1934, supported its merger with the Communist League of America to form the US Workers Party. He became a Trotskyist in 1935, but would break with Trotskyism and… Read More

Description:
Chicago: Henry Regnery Company, 1953. First US edition, second printing (August 1953). Octavo. Original maroon cloth and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Minor scuffing to board with chip to top of front hinge; minor foxing to pastedowns and free endpapers; edgewear to dust jacket, with chipping along folds and corners; large chip to head of dust jacket and spine, affecting name and title on spine, and to foot of spine; small closed tear to head of rear jacket panel with crease; spotting to dust jacket. Very good early printing of Kirk's masterpiece.. Second printing of Russell Kirk's (1918-1994) landmark history of modern intellectual conservatism. When The Conservative Mind was first published in 1953 by the Henry Regnery Company in Chicago, a substantial literature had developed in opposition to (or, at least as a critique of) modern liberalism, including through the works of Albert J. Nock, James Burnham, T. S. Eliot, and Richard Weaver. What the literature seemed to lack, however, was a… Read More

Description:
Chicago: Henry Regnery Company, 1963. First edition. Octavo. Original cloth and dust jacket (not price-clipped). Minor scuffing and edgewear to dust jacket with chips to head and tail of spine; two-inch closed tears to jacket hinges; bump to bottom of boards. Near-fine in a very good dust jacket, which is uncommon for this book.. First edition of Willmoore Kendall's (1909-1967) The Conservative Affirmation, which offers a collection of his most important essays and reviews on conservatism. Kendall was an influential leader in the founding of modern American conservatism-and he remains one of the movement's most interesting thinkers. Born in Oklahoma in 1909, Kendall graduated from high school at age thirteen, from the University of Oklahoma at age eighteen, and studied at Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar in 1932. Like other founding fathers within the movement, including James Burnham and Whittaker Chambers, he was an early Trotskyist, but Kendall would eventually disclaim Communism following… Read More

Description:
London: Faber & Faber Ltd, 1954. First UK edition. Octavo. Original blue cloth (lacking dust jacket). Edgewear and scuffing to boards with wear to spine; toning to endpapers; very small creases to several page corners; dusting and spotting to page block with small ink mark to top block. Very good.. First UK edition of Russell Kirk's (1918-1994) landmark history of modern intellectual conservatism. When The Conservative Mind was first published in 1953 by the Henry Regnery Company in Chicago, a substantial literature had developed in opposition to (or, at least as a critique of) modern liberalism, including through the works of Albert J. Nock, James Burnham, T. S. Eliot, and Richard Weaver. What the literature seemed to lack, however, was a unifying concept, or guiding principle, capable of combining its many unique strands into a coherent tradition. As Henry Regnery affirmed in the book's seventh revised edition, "it was the great achievement, one might even say the historic achievement, of Russell… Read More
