Derby, George H. Phoenixiana; or, Sketches and Burlesques.

Derby was a Topographical Engineer and a veteran of the Mexican War who was stationed in California during the later years of the gold rush. He began writing humorous pieces for local papers under the pen name John Phoenix and Squibob. His frontier satire and burlesques were immensely popular in his time, and he has been compared to Mark Twain and James Thurber. His potential was cut short by a tragically early death, and he is little known today. Too bad, there's some very funny stuff here. This is an excellent selection of work taken from his two published books.

Cleveland: Arthur H. Clark, 1906. Hardcover in original cloth no dj, spine faded, minor repairs to top and bottom of spine and rear board, interior and maps very good. Gilt on top edge.

Baker, A.H. Live Stock; A cyclopedia for the Farmer and Stock Owner - Salesman's Sample.
St. Louis: The Thompson Publishing Company, 1916. Hardcover bound in half leather with prev. owner's name on decorative ffep, else very good. Undoubtedly the Cyclopedia was an impressive volume, weighing in at more than 1,400 pages with many illustrations. This is a sample used by itinerant book salesmen (a profession that might be even less lucrative than owning a book store - if that's possible) to peddle the volume to farmers in the days before the internet. It has several sample chapters, a couple of folding illustrations, and examples of bindings. Either never used, or the property of an extraordinarily unsuccessful salesman as there are no entries in the blank pages reserved for subscribers.
