"DE FOREST, JOHN WILLIAM" "Autograph letter, signed and dated New Haven, 25 March, 1901, to the Bulletin of the Society of American Authors."
"2 pages on the lined letterhead of the Hotel Garde, “Opposite Union Depot.” Approximately 300 words." "
A fine and interesting letter from one of the masters of American realistic fiction, inquiring about a story in the Bulletin of the Society of American Authors which asserted that “Publishing wholly or in considerable part at the author's cost has become quite commonplace with at least two leading Boston publishing firms.” De Forest asks “Can you oblige me with their names? The secret of this question is that I want to publish a volume (or two) of verse. No profits expected; on the contrary, losses; but I am willing to foot them.” De Forest goes on to criticize publishing firms for their “vainglory” and comments that he had solicited a Boston firm to publish his book with no risk and they declined, citing that they want complete control and, besides, “poetry does not sell.” De Forest concludes “Few authors can pay (like Herbert Spencer and Ruskin) for publishing their own works. But when they can do it, why won't the publishers let them . . .” De Forest later that year published his two books of verse with Tuttle, Morehouse and Taylor of New Haven. See BAL 4627 & 4628." Paper a little browned; in fine condition. De Forest manuscript material is very uncommon in the trade.

"De Lassus, Carlos Dehault, Spanish Governor of St. Louis" "Manuscript document signed, 13 x 8 inches, single sheet, two pages, signatures of three individuals with various dates beginning April 1, 1798."
"The first part of the document is a request (in French) dated April 1, 1798, from Isaac Daves, forland on the edge of the prairie near New Bourbon, Upper Louisiana, with his description of his family and the land. Below that is the endorsement, dated April 3, 1798, of Pierre Charles DeHault De Lassus-DeLuzierre, Carlos De Lassus’ father and the commandant at New Bourbon, Missouri, which states that Daves’ claim meets the requirements for the land. De Lassus-De Luzierre repeats this endorsement one year later because of a change of governors (Zenon Trudeau had been replaced during that year by De Lassus), and in his second request he seeks to insure that the land had not been given to anyone else in the meantime. Following this second request is a sixteen-line response (in Spanish) by De Lassus, granting the request." "
Carlos DeHault De Lassus (1767-1843) was the last Spanish governor of St. Louis de Illinois, or Upper Louisiana, and was responsible for transferring that territory to the Americans in 1804. Afterwards he divided his time between New Orleans and St. Louis. There is a town named for him in Missouri." Split and repaired at the folds; in very good condition.

"DENNIE, JOSEPH" The Lay Preacher; or Short Sermons for Idle Readers.
"Walpole, New Hampshire: David Carlisle, Jun., 1796." First edition BAL 4633; Evans 30335. "12mo, contemporary quarter sheep, tan boards, red leather label, gilt rules and lettering." "
Dennie’s scarce first book, a collection of well-crafted Addisonian essays reprinted from the Walpole, New Hampshire newspaper Farmer’s Weekly Museum, primarily on political and social subjects, with some critical commentary on the purity of the English language. Dennie (1768-1812), a staunch Federalist, founded the important literary and political journal the Port Folio. His essays, like Freneau’s, scratch the surface of literary criticism and as such represent the beginnings of that genre in America. Freneau and Dennie are generally regarded as being among the fathers of American belles-lettres.
Bookplate of the New Hampshire Historical Society on the front paste-down." Some slight foxing; binding a little rubbed; an unusually fine copy for an American book of this period.

"DENNIE, JOSEPH, CONTRIBUTOR" "Epistles, Odes and Other Poems. By Thomas Moore, Esq. Second Edition, In which is Prefixed, by the American Editor, A Notice, Critical and Biographical."
"Philadelphia: John Watts, 1806." First edition with Dennie’s editorial and critical contributions BAL 4639; American Bibliography 10899. "4to, contemporary quarter calf, marbled boards, gilt rules and lettering. Two plates." "
An American edition of Moore’s poems, notable for its 74-page essay on the poet in which Dennie (then editor of the Port Folio magazine) attacks his subject, his “abuse of vocabulary,” etc., and states: “It is on subjects of love . . . that Moore is commonly found to bring into one focus all that is reprehensible in his writing; a taste the most uncultivated, whether in sentiment or language. It is here he assembled words tawdry or misapplied, thought notable only for vapidity, and a phraseology for which candor itself can find no name more gentle than that of puerile.” Dennie does conclude with some respectful words for Moore’s misused talent." Binding worn; very good copy.

"Freeman, R. Austin" The Singing Bone.
"London: Hodder and Stoughton, (1912)." First edition "8vo, original red cloth, gilt and black lettering." "
A major work of detective fiction, which introduces the concept of the “Inverted Tale,” in which, from the beginning, the reader knows the identity of the criminal and observes the exertions of the detective. Four of the five stories in this collection employ this approach; and one of these, “The Case of Oscar Brodski,” is regarded as the first narrative of the genre. Ellery Queen declared that “The Freeman 'inverted' tales were a monumental contribution to the development of the detective story, and from them have stemmed some of the great modern masterpieces of crime writing.” Early and contemporary ink inscriptions on the front free endpaper and paste-down." Edges rubbed; hinges starting; some browning of paper; but a very good copy.

"DICKENS, CHARLES" Dombey and Son. With Illustrations by H. K. Browne.
"London: Bradbury and Evans, 1846-48." First edition "Hatton & Cleaver, pages 227-250. This set agrees with Hatton and Cleaver's description, except that in part 11 there is no ad for Letts & Son, and the ad for Kaye’s Pills in part 12 varies slightly from the one described by Hatton & Cleaver. Two of the three misprints noted by Hatton & Cleaver are present: part 11, page 324, “Capitan” for “Captain”; part 14, page 426, “if” is not present; on page 431, the page number is present (in Hatton & Cleaver's earliest issue the number is omitted)." "19 parts in 20, 8vo, original pictorial blue wrappers. 40 plates." "
A fine set of Dombey and Son in original parts, completely unsophisticated, as evidenced by the ink signature on each front wrapper of a contemporary reader, Stephen Blair. Dickens novels in parts with the evidence of the contemporary ownership on each wrapper are rare, and such provenance is virtually the only way to establish that a set has not been sophisticated, “married” or “made up.”" "Plates foxed - as seems inevitable - some minor paper repairs to the corners of a few spines; a few wrappers slightly soiled and smudged; overall in very nice condition, as issued."

Complete sets with the five volumes in first edition are uncommon."

The cover title of this unusual collection of stories is “The Story of a Watch and Other Sketches.” Harlan notes this volume “is without question the most eccentric publication with which Doxey was associated.” The author, a San Francisco physician, held the deep-rooted belief that books should be held horizontally rather than vertically, and Doxey had the text imposed to correspond with his theory. Alas, the illustrations were placed in the usual manner - and so ended up “at cross purposes” with the text (Harlan)." Edges a bit rubbed; very good copy.

Dryden's final tragedy and penultimate play, an eloquent account of the fall of Cleomenes III, who reigned over Sparta from 235 to 221 BC, had a history about as thwarted as its hero's: Dryden fell ill while writing the play, and much of the fifth act was composed by his protégé Thomas Southerne (1659-1746). The first stage production was blocked because of the play's patent political incorrectness, until the Earl of Rochester stepped in and had this decision reversed. As a result, he gained a grateful dedication from Dryden.
An early and rather pedantic reader has made several textual corrections, as well as jotting in the proper name of the Earl and identifying a classical reference in the Epistle Dedicatory." "Binding a little worn; some staining and foxing in the text; but a very good copy, with decent margins."
