1782263934London: J. Stockale; R. Faulder 1782. First Edition. Half Leather. Very Good binding. Ritson's first book in which he attacks Thomas Warton's History of English Poetry in such vitriolic tones -- Warton is a preternder a cheater and a liar -- as to cause quite a contretemps in late 18th century English literary circles. One assumes this actually pleased Ritson as he went on the next year to attack Samuel Johnson and George Steevens. Eventually Ritson went complete mad barricading himself in his rooms at Gray's Inn and setting fire to a pile of manuscripts. In an attractive later binding in red half-goat over marbled board with raised bands. We assume the binder was charged with binding a group of different books to a uniform size -- the title page is trimmed and mounted and all the other leaves are folded neatly to fit the bottom edge and then the leading edge over it. Rather astonishing actually. Very Good binding. J. Stockale; R. Faulder unknown books

L. Richardson was a Walworth County photographer who worked from a shop in Spooner between 1905 and 1906. <br /><br />Shell Lake Lumber was the largest lumbering company in the region during the early 1900s. The rivers and streams in this area of Wisconsin were not suitable for transporting logs so the area's forests remained virtually untouched until the arrival of the railroad in 1880 after which a large sawmill was built. The company operated a number of mobile logging camps throughout the region that moved from place to place to harvest new stands of timber. The yellow pine harvested by Shell Lake was highly prized and commanded a significant premium for its superior girth height and exceptionally straight and clear bodies. <br /><br /> books
