Volume II: a4 b1 A-Ss4 x1. i-ix 1 1-329 1. 340 pp. Last page misnumbered 309. Title Contents Chapters VII-XI With inscriptions of "Henry A. Jones" on both volumes unclear if it is the playwright of the same name. Bound to style in 18th-century calf spines with raised bands forming compartments gilt lettered red morocco lettering pieces in second compartments. Restoration to the the last text leaf in volume one<br/> <br/> First edition of the fundamental historical account of South Carolina and Georgia which Howes calls "the earliest history of this region" and Winsor states is the "earliest account of South Carolina cast in a sustained retrospective spirit." Streeter<br/> <br/> Hewatt or Hewat was a Scottish-born Presbyterian minister educated at Edinburgh who presided over the Scots First Presbyterian Church in Charleston when it was Charlestown South Carolina from 1763 to 1777. When the British fleet arrived at Charlestown in 1776 Hewatt and other ministers were forced by Patriots to renounce their loyalty to the king. When he refused Hewatt was given sixty days to leave the colony. His property was seized and he returned to the British Isles and wrote this historical account in London. Considered by Howe to be the earliest and best account of Colonial South Carolina and Georgia the book is bolstered by as Streeter states Hewatt being a "keen collector of historical documents." However his work remains important today because it is also based on his personal observations as a first-hand source from over a decade of lived experience in the region. Hewatt discusses the immigration of British French and other European migrants to the Carolinas due to religious persecution at home. He examines the lives they then created in the New World and the economies they built while doing so. But Hewatt also pays especial detail to the customs and cultures of those people these settlers displaced: the indigenous Native Americans of the region. "Hewatt gives a sympathetic and balanced account of Indian life and customs. He describes the climate soil natural resources fauna snakes and insects; how to make turpentine tar and pitch; and how to cultivate silk cotton and especially rice." De Renne An opponent of slavery as many Presbyterians were he chronicles the introduction of enslaved people from Africa and the ensuing social and economic problems it caused. He criticizes slavery in the colonies and the treatment of enslaved people while maintaining that they should be given instruction in morals and religion. He also warns that to mistreat enslaved people was to "fire them with desires of liberty and vengeance." Also covered in Volume I is the Yamasee War and in Volume II the War with the Cherokee. In 1780 after the publication of this work Hewatt was awarded the Doctor of Divinity from the University of Edinburgh an indication of the success of the present book. "Hewatt's account reflects the influence of William Robertson and the Scottish school of historiography. Less concerned with a chronology of events Hewatt instead focused on the interrelatedness of those events and their various causes and effects. His goal in doing so was to provide moral political and practical instruction to the colonists and to those in England." ANB His work especially his comments on Native Americans and enslaved people were used as the basis for David Ramsay's history though it went uncredited. The first volume includes the "first set of the fundamental constitutions of South Carolina" which have been attributed to the English political philosopher John Locke because he at the time was working as a paid secretary for one of the Province of Carolina's proprietors Anthony Ashley Cooper. The historian David Armitage and the political scientist Vicki Hsueh argue he was a co-author along with Cooper the 1st Earl of Shaftesbury. The constitutions reflect Locke's classical liberalism safeguarding religious freedom while also setting up a reactionary neo-feudal form of government.<br/> <br/> Clark I 255. De Renne 217.

198487299London: Murqi Press 1984. First Limited Edition. Square Octavo. #8 of a Limitation of 10 copies only. 22cm. Publisher's black rexine titled in gilt to spine. 95pp. Some very light wear to the corners a small cosmetic not structural crack to the laminate at the base of the front spine hinge strong and tight; internally clean and fresh with original 4pp Murqi Press prospectus laid in at the front; signed and numbered to limitation page. A near fine copy.<br /> <br /> Well this is a weird one no pun intended; William Hope Hodgson basically the human background along with Algernon Blackwood and Robert W. Chambers to a foreground that has H.P. Lovecraft standing in a spotlight surrounded by mildly disfunctional fanboys simultaneously wrote a lot and not enough. <br /> He had a relatively brief career as a published and popular writer before being disintegrated by a shell on forward observations during Fourth Ypres in April 1918. <br /> He gave us The House on The Borderland The Night Land The Ghost Pirates and others and created the supernatural techie detective Thomas Carnacki out of whole cloth for our queasy and uncomfortable enjoyment. <br /> Hodgson ran away to sea in search of adventure as a teenager and although he eventually found his feet there are more than a few suggestions that he suffered assault and other indiginities as a raw 14 year old apprentice at sea. <br /> He became an advocate for apprentice's rights and worked actively to increase the safeguards and comforts of young men in unfamiliar and vulnerable positions. He took up body building advocated for self sufficiency taught unarmed combat to the Blackburn Police annoyed the hell out of Harry Houdini by embarrassing him during a music hall performance and most importantly wrote a number of short stories poems and novels mostly in an attempt to keep his head above water but also because William Hope Hodgson was clearly one of those men for whom 'giving up' is an abstract concept only entertained by other people who clearly just need the support of someone like him. <br /> <br /> He gave us some of the most important weird and supernatural tales in the canon that's certainly true but he also wrote a number of truly great sea tales. This book published in a vanishingly small limitation by the God Emperor of supernatural bookdealers the mighty George Locke of Ferret Fantasy contains a number of Hodgson's seagoing tales salvaged from the pages of the Red Magazine between 1912-1916. <br /> Signed and numbered by Mr. Locke to the limitation page using his Murqi Press imprint which I'm pretty sure he ran out of the shed in his back garden which was the bookdealing equivalent of Tutankhamun's Tomb only more suburban South London with the intent of preserving tales which otherwise would just be footnotes in a variety of forgotten Edwardian boy's magazines many of which lasted for only a short run or were so ephemeral you might as well have printed them on cobwebs. Before he died in the trenches Hodgson wrote to a friend looking forward hopefully to the stories that might be written after experiencing the horrors of war; he never got to write them himself but there is no doubt that the work he left behind encouraged many of the writers we now consider great to step in and try to carry on where he could not.

1839WRCAM49829Philadelphia 1839. vi7-252pp. plus illus. 12mo. Contemporary three-quarter roan and cloth. Corners and spine rubbed. Very light scattered foxing. Good. A later edition after the first of 1809 about which Howes comments "no copy known." "General Horry furnished the facts Parson Weems the rhetoric; so much of it that Horry became indignant and disclaimed all connection with the book. Unabashed Weems continued its publication through many editions" - Howes. This is the 20th edition listed by Ford. HOWES H650. SABIN 33045. hardcover books
1824WRCAM49827Philadelphia: M. Carey & Son 1824. 251pp. plus six plates. 12mo. Contemporary calf leather label spine gilt. Boards rubbed and hinges repaired with leather strips at spine. Front hinge cracked corners bumped. Modern bookplate on rear pastedown 19th-century armorial bookplate on front pastedown. Very light scattered foxing toning throughout. Good. Self-styled seventh edition. General Francis Marion "The Swamp Fox" was one of the leading American commanders in the Revolution in the South. His brillant operations in the Carolinas kept thousands of British troops tied down and contributed immensely to ultimate American victory. Plain and unassuming he was widely beloved by his contemporaries and after his death this book began the process of his ascent to legend. Horry his second-in-command for part of the war supplied many of the facts although he was allegedly disgusted by Weems' flowery passages and disclaimed any connection with the book. What he disliked others embraced and the book went through many editions. This edition not in Howes or any other standard sources. <br> <br> This copy with the ownership signature and bookplate of J.K. Paulding on titlepage and front pastedown. Paulding was a writer and U.S. Secretary of the Navy from 1838-1841. HOWES H650. M. Carey & Son hardcover books
