One of the Phinneys' series of stereotyped quarto Bibles of which 138 editions were published between August 1822 and winter 1848. The Phinney brothers Henry and Elihu carried on the business their father Elihu Phinney had started in 1795; the elder Phinney had established a press bookshop and newspaper after resettling in Cooperstown from Connecticut. James Fenimore Cooper a delegate to the 1816 convention that formed the American Bible Society learned to set type in his shop for fun Hills 69. The younger Phinneys however were not to be restricted to one shop: They sold their stock which consisted of their own publications together with books brought in from Philadelphia and New York from large travelling wagons and established a "bookboat" on the Erie Canal that enabled them to reach a larger portion of western New York. Â Â Â Â This edition has the Apocrypha added and 11 woodcut plates in total; the New Testament has a separate title-page. The family record leaves here are mostly unused but bear a few names with dates from 1845 through 1899. Â Â Â Â Provenance: Front pastedown with small bookplate of 20th-century collector Michael Zinman. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Hills English Bible in America 1100. Binding see: Wolf From Gothic Windows to Peacocks 126.

THE HOLY BIBLE CONTAINING THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS Translated out of the Original Tongues: Being the Version Set forth A.D. 1611 Compared with the Most Ancient Authorities and Revised

1885505253Cambridge at the University Press 1885. First Edition. Leather. VERY GOOD. First Edition First Printing of the complete one-volume Revised Version of the Bible preceded only by the 5 volume 'Presentation Edition' of the American Committee with matching fine binding published simultaneously with two larger formats. x 696 xv 204 pp; 8 15 engraved color maps Indexed Atlas to the Holy Bible. 8vo 20.5 x 13.5 cm bound in a fine-grained leather over boards with 5 raised bands both covers and spine ruled in blind with gilt stamped spine lettering gilt ruled turn-ins 'Sewn with Silk' with reinforced inges; all edges art gilt marbled endpapers purple place ribbon; printed with Minion font in dual colums with marginal references. Some trivial wear to the extremities family tree in pen to flyleaf;some notes on prophecy related to WWII in a neat miniscule hand to FFEP verso and some erasable pencil notes to rear flyleaf; otherwise a sound and handsome binding with clean fresh text. A copublication between the two royal-privileged printers Oxford and Cambridge though printed solely by C.J. Clay at Cambridge. The Revised Version was the product of over a decade of British and American collaborative work co-financed by Oxford and Cambridge in exchange for exclusive co-copyright on the text. Received with great acclaim and criticism it shot Oxford's number of Bibles printed per-annum over 2 million for the first time. The RV committee was a spectacular assembly of scholarly prowess who made enthusiastic use of the most recent scholarship including the new critical Greek text of Westcott and Hort. Conspicuously absent from the committee were the more literary voices of King James's translators and the somewhat wooden style of the RV suffers for it though exegetes have prized it for exactly the same reason. A surprising inclusion in this royally-convened committe was a large team of Americans: 'In every instance the suggestions from America were treated with the same consideration as those proceeding from members of the English Company and were adopted or rejected on their merits. It was a part of the terms of agreement with the American Company that all points of ultimate difference between them and the English Revisers should be placed on record found in the appendix . Many of them will be found to be changes of language which are involved in the essentially different circumstances of American and English readers; others express a preference for the marginal rendering; others again involve a real difference of opinion; but all shew that they have been dictated by the same leading principle the sincere desire to give to modern readers a faithful representation of the meaning of the original documents.' from the Preface Darlow & Moule 2041; Simon Eliot The History of Oxford University Press Vol. II.

183449065Leipzig Barth 1834. Contemp. hcalf. raised bands spine gilt. Spine with light wear. in. "Annalen der Physik und Chemie. J.C. Poggendorff" Zweite reine 3. bd.VIII5584 pp. and 5 plates. Entire volume offerd. Faradays papers: pp. 149-189 Sixth series pp. 301-331 a. 481-520 Seventh series. Internally clean and fine printed on good paper. First appearance in German - prepared by Faraday himself for publication in Annalen - of 2 historical papers in chemistry and physiscs in which Faraday in the first detects a new recombination-effect in electrolysis and in the second we have the MILESTONE PAPER in which Faraday announces the discoveries of further laws of electrochemistry stating the general relations of electricity to chemistry and introducing new terms with precise meanings. The first part of the paper introduces his new terminology giving the words a limited and precise meaning. These words devised with the assistance of William Whewell are now familiar to all chemists electrode anode cathode ion anion and cation. He also introduces the "Volta-electrometer" and arrives at the "Law of electro-chemical equivalents". The paper offered is one of Farday's most famous papers."Another section of the paper is devoted to a closer examination of the law of constant electrochemical action with respect to water and to the development of a gas electrometer to measure quantities of electricity. Faraday's "Volta-electrometer" provided the first practical means for the quantitative measurement of electricity." Source Book in Chemistry p. 280-81.The Sixth series: "In the course of his experimental investigations of a general and importent law of electro-chemical action which required the accurate measurement of thegases evolved during the decomposition of water and other substances the author was lead to the detection of a curious effect which had never been previously noticed and of which the knowledge had he before possessed it would have prevented many of the errors and inconsistencies occurring in the conclusions he at first deduced from his earlier experiments. The phenomena observed was the gradual recombination of elements which had been previously separated from each other by voltaic action. This happened when after water had been decomposed by voltaic electricity the mixed gases resulting from such decomposition were left in contact with the platina wires or plates which had acted as poles; for under these circumstances they gradually diminished in vo.umes water was reprioduced and at lust the whole of the gases disappeared."Abstract - Faraday explains the causes of this recombination. hardcover
