First edition 8vo pp. 321 1; frontispiece 66 illustrations from photographs; original pictorial yellow cloth stamped in red and blue on upper cover and spine; front hinge a little tender otherwise a very good bright copy. This copy with a presentation from Parsons: "Mrs. Thomas H. Baxter with the compliments of the author." Laid in is a two-page autograph letter signed from Parsons to Mrs. Baxter dated Feb. 7 1903 with the original mailing envelope which reads: "I have just obtained from the publishers a copy of my little book on China and take great pleasure in sending it to you . 'All the world's a stage' but the stage for the next world drama is I think the Orient and therefore it is interesting to study the players. At any rate this little book is a record of the most interesting experience that I ever expect to have." "Parsons . accepted the direction of a survey of some 1000 miles of railway in China primarily on the line from Hankow to Canton. The party passed through the then 'closed province' of Hu-nan and the success of the entire venture depended not alone on engineering skill but primarily upon the ability of the leader of the expedition to meet the extremely difficult diplomatic problems involved. Nevertheless the mission was accomplished and the small group of American engineers to the surprise of many of their friends returned in safety" DAB. That very same railroad line is still in use today. Parsons 1859-1932 founded Parsons Brinckerhoff Inc. one of the largest American civil engineering firms. He designed New York rapid transit subways the Cape Cod Canal and sat on the Isthmian Canal Commission. <br/><br/> McClure, Phillips & Co hardcover books

187037262Newark 1870. 2pp. 5" x 7-3/4." Entirely in ink manuscript on lined paper and signed "Joseph P. Bradley." Munsell's name above the salutation covers The previously written name of Bradley. Very Good. <br/><br/> Bradley a Rutgers graduate was a highly respected New Jersey lawyer specializing in railroad and patent litigation. President Grant nominated him to the United States Supreme Court in early 1870 and he took his seat in March. He served until 1891. His Letter transcribed in full words in capital letters are underlined in the original suggests that Munsell certainly earned his fee for publishing the book discussed here. The book was 'The Centennial Celebration of Rutgers College June 21 1870: With an Historical Discourse. Delivered by Hon. Joseph Bradley.' It was printed in Albany by Munsell in 1870. Bradley had a scholar's attention to detail and wanted Munsell's work to reflect precisely Bradley's thinking. <br/> "You did not quite understand one correction made by me on the title page. That thing which I originally called an APPENDIX we propose to call a NOTE and say nothing about it in the title page - occupying the same place as it now does - at the end; - but under the name of a note instead of that of an appendix. Hence. Then we propose to call the account of the Centennial Exercises - AN APPENDIX. Now you will see the meaning of my correction on the title page. Calling the account of the Centennial Exercise by the name of an appendix my name as author of the Address could properly come AFTER the word 'Appendix' as you suggest. It would be better if it could. Perhaps even now my name had better come after the word "1870" immediately before the words " with an Appendix." I agree with you that it is more usual to have the name of the author down there.<br/> "Yours truly Joseph P. Bradley. unknown books
