Otherwise about fine.<br> <br> "The principle which underlay all Berkeley's philosophical writing was based on a rejection of all speculation such as Locke's about the meaning and necessity of matter as a primal necessity to any theory of human understanding. Briefly Berkeley maintained that no existence is conceivable or possible which is not conscious spirit or the ideas of which such a spirit is conscious. This presupposes complete equation of subject and object: no object can exist without a Mind to conceive it. Without the pre-existence of the Mind mater and substance cause and effect can have no meaning. In the Principles externality absolutely independent of all mind is shown to be an unreal impossible conception: true substance is the conscious spirit and true causality the free action of such a spirit. Physical substance and causes are relations among phenomena arbitrary though by the action of the Mind constant. Connexions between them are viewed subjectively as the suggestion or associations of the human mind and objectively as the operation of the Universal Mind. Thus the universe is the sum of human experience and forms a symbol of the divine universal intelligence: esse est percipi" Printing and the Mind of Man.<br> <br> Norman Library 196.

1878000011096London: William Tegg & Co 1878. First Simon edition. Hardcover. Good. Small 8vo. 5 vi-lii 5 6-220 pp. Bound in green cloth with both boards bordered in blind lettering and rule stamped in gold on the front board. Yellow/green endpapers and pastedowns. Algaier Reconstructing the Library of William James; Gay Wilson Allen William James; Mead 18. This is the first edition edited and with introduction and appendix by Simon. The free front endpaper has two ownership stamps of philosopher and psychologist William James the first is crossed out being the older 18 Garden Street address where James resided until moving to his new house in 1889 the second is the 95 Irving Street address in Cambridge where he lived from 1889 until his death in 1910. There is also a slip of paper tipped in to the front endpaper with "PHILOS. III." printed on it. This book is not in Algaier who lists all of James' books and pamphlets that were donated to Harvard University by James and others 2554 items nor is it listed in the catalogue of The Hocking Collection at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell. Therefore this book must be one of the many that were given away as gifts to colleagues or sold at the "yard sale" held in 1923. The photographs of James' library circa 1923 see Algaier p. 4-5 suggest that it consisted of at least 4000 volumes Algaier suggests it may be double that so a large portion of James' personal library is either lost or privately held. The book does contain underlining and light marginalia vertical bars to emphasize passages and reference numbers mostly in pencil but we are unable to ascertain if this is the work of James himself or a later owner. James is one of the most important American philosophers of the nineteenth century and books from his personal library are scarce in commerce. The book is in Good-only condition with rubbing and wear to the boards and the binding although holding is in jeopardy. William Tegg & Co hardcover

NAM. 1952-04-1<br><br>The Charge of the Heavy Brigade would be far better known were it not for the famous action of the Light Brigade later the same day. With luck and skill 800 British heavy cavalry charged 3000 Russian light horsemen and drove them from the field. The large Russian force stopped as it came towards the British camp. This mistake laid it open to attack and 300 British heavy cavalry charged the Russians.<br><br>The British had movement on their side and the rest of the Heavy Brigade followed up the charge. The much larger Russian force was put to flight with few casualties. The whole action is said to have lasted eight minutes.<br><br>Stanley Berkeley 1855–1909 was an English painter of animal sporting and historical subjects especially military scenes. Born in London he exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy the Grafton Gallery the New Watercolour Society and elsewhere from 1878 until 1902 and many of his pictures were retrospective military scenes of the English Civil War and the Battle of Waterloo & Crimean War.
