Here are sixty-six of the most haunting and beautiful folk songs and songs in the folk vein. Many of these songs have never before appeared in print. Others have never before appeared in the version published here. The texts are full. The vocal lines and arrangements for piano and guitar have been kept close as is possible to the way Joan Baez performs them. They have an aptness and basic simplicity which brings them within everyone's reach. From cover notes Joan Chandos Baez born 1941 is an American singer songwriter musician and activist. Her contemporary folk music often includes songs of protest or social justice. Baez has performed publicly for over 60 years releasing over 30 albums. Fluent in Spanish and English she has also recorded songs in at least six other languages. Baez is generally regarded as a folk singer but her music has diversified since the counterculture era of the 1960s and encompasses genres such as folk rock pop country and gospel music. She began her recording career in 1960 and achieved immediate success. Her first three albums Joan Baez Joan Baez Vol. 2 and Joan Baez in Concert all achieved gold record status. Although a songwriter herself Baez generally interprets other composers' work having recorded songs by the Allman Brothers Band the Beatles Jackson Browne Leonard Cohen Woody Guthrie Violeta Parra the Rolling Stones Pete Seeger Paul Simon Stevie Wonder Bob Marley and many others. She was one of the first major artists to record the songs of Bob Dylan in the early 1960s; Baez was already an internationally celebrated artist and did much to popularize his early songwriting efforts.

The author Julia Corner is quite clear that a good boy 'is dutiful kind and affectionate; diligent at school attentive at church and gentle and humane to all living things. He is careful with his books and clothes; and he knows they cost money and that money is not obtained without labour.' Of the less than good boys the examples given are of 'The Inattentive Boy' Frank who is lent by the studious James a jigsaw map of England alas when the puzzle is returned James discovers it has lost the counties of Middlesex and Durham. Likewise 'The Covetous Little Boy' Charles becomes jealous when an Ark toy is given to his younger brothers Tom and George. Charles persuades his younger brothers to part with the Ark for some old toys of his own. A parent on discovering this is rather incredulous and takes time to explain how wrong Charles has been. One feels that Charles was not altogether convinced that the exchange should be rescinded. On balance one would not like to be in the company of such excruciatingly good boys for too long as described here! <br /><br />Julia Corner 1798-1875 also known as Miss Corner was a British children's educational writer who created Miss Corner's Historical Library. Corner was born in London in 1798. Her father John Corner was an engraver. She initially wrote novels which she continued after she became associated with a series of history books. In 1840 she published "The History of Spain and Portugal" and the "History of France". The former was criticised by the Church of England Quarterly Review as an "apologist for the Jesuits" although "Miss Julia Corner's" good intentions and the low price of her books was appreciated. These history books eventually covered many countries and built up into what was known as Miss Corner's Historical Library. 'Corner wrote simple stories for children and books for their instruction as well as history books about the ancient Britons Saxons and Normans. She was published by low cost publishers like Henry George Bohn for whom she created books about India and China in the 1850s. Her books about countries Miss Corner's Historical Library would be illustrated and they would include anecdotes tables of historical events maps different aspects of history and questions were raised that related to the text in the style of Richmal Mangnall… Corner also created revised editions of other writer's books including Anne Rodwell's A Child's First Step to the History of England. Her usually conservative books also included plays for children in Dean & Son's series Little Plays for Little People which she advocated for their educational value' see ODNB.<br /><br />The illustrations are by Benjamin Clayton 1809-1883 an Irish artist and engraver who settled in London and probably produced a tremendous amount of unsigned work for juvenile works prints and advertising material and who is better remembered as the father of the writer Ellen Creathorne Clayton. The illustrations are simple and direct and show the boys on the whole trying to be good rather than bad.<br /><br />OCLC records copies at UCLA and Princeton.<br /> Thomas Dean & Son, Threadneedle Street.
194320095Washington D. C.: The National research Council 1943. First Edition. Wraps. Near Fine. First Edition. We offer a nearly complete run of this important early computer serial: Numbers 1 2 5-59 66-70 each in the original wrappers as published. Small quarto and octavo sizes approx 12 inches shelf space. Occasional minor soiling. From the library of Frank M. Verzuh with his name on some covers. Wraps. MTAC is the first period journal devoted entirely to the literature of computation. The journal had a very small subscription base in the early years. Through 1946 it's subscription list was less than 350 readers. Many were discarded as computing advanced at a rapid pace. As of this writing Worldcat shows less than 80 institutions with even partial runs. <br /> <br /> The first volume contains lists and descriptions of printed tables where they were published as well as new errors discovered in the published sources. These errors introduced by humans whose job description were "computers" continued to appear until mechanical computers significantly reduced and eventually eliminated them. Large businesses military and financial operations used these tables to save time - so error notices were important. Later issues particularly in Volume 2 of this serial contained interesting and groundbreaking material related to the development of computers as we know them today. <br /> <br /> Previous owner Professor FM Verzuh attended the Moore School lectures and was a participant in early computering at MIT. The fact that this serial was still present on his shelf at his retirement is an indication of it's importance. <br /> <br /> Scarce in the marketplace. See Origins of Cyberspace 777 for a detailed description and history of the serial which was published in a total of 14 volumes until a title change in 1960. Important articles included in this run include Origins of Cyberspace 577 579 1077 and 1078. "MTAC remains the primary periodical source of information on the electromechanical and electronic digital computers designed and built during the late 1940s and early 1950s as well as on the scientific uses of punched-card machines mechanical desk calculators etc" It also served as a journal of record for the newly formed Association of Computing Machinery until the founding of their own journal in January 1954.

1837100163AB1837. Halifax Printed fro William Milner 1837. Duodecimo / Miniature book. Frontispiece XX 169 pages. Original Hardcover dark green cloth with floral embossement and gilt lettering on spine. Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Rare Halifax print ! History of the Halifax Printer William Milner: Born to a single mother in Halifax in October 1803 William Milner was apprenticed as a youth to a printer in Hebden Bridge. After a stint as a grocer he began publishing books himself initially using local printers Hartley & Walker or Whitley & Booth. Then he set up his own printing press at Swine Market now upper Crown Street. It was here that he published John Fielden's revolutionary book The Curse of the Factory System in 1836. Moving his business to Upper George Yard Cheapside he began to publish his series called Cottage Library which were said to be the cheapest books in Britain. At one time he was printing 15000 books per day sold at sixpence 2 new pence and 1 shilling 5 new pence each. Cheap books were a rarity before Milner commenced printing. He would sell copies by travelling round the country from a horse-drawn van. And many of his books were exported to distant parts of the British Empire. Milner was a fervent supporter of the Chartists. Wishing to obtain quantities of Feargus O'Connor's Chartist paper confiscated when found by the Authorities Milner worked out an ingenious plan to obtain supplies. Every week copies of the papers were hidden in a coffin in London which was then conveyed north in a hearse smuggling in banned reading material! Milner lived for many years in Rhodes Street where he died in 1850. He married widowed Mrs Mary Sowerby from Bristol taking her two sons into partnership. The business was left to these stepsons in his death; the firm then traded as Milner & Sowerby. It was in 1858 that the company moved to its new premises in Raglan Street designed by local architect Richard Horsfall later Mayor of Halifax. The street off Hanson Lane below the factory is called Milner Street though the sign has disappeared. The new building's opening was marked by an outing for employees to Hardcastle Crags followed a meal at the White Lion Hotel Hebden Bridge. The number of cheap books turned out by this firm was phenomenal. By 1907 245000 copies of the works of Burns had been sold for example. Hundreds of thousands of working people must have benefited from the company's affordable copies of literary classics. But by 1910 there were many more rivals in the printing trade and business was declining badly for Milner & Sowerby. On 1st June 1910 the company went into liquidation. Of the two Sowerby brothers Francis lived latterly at Bowers Hall Barkisland dying in 1885; and John lived latterly at Green Hayes Savile Park Road now occupied by Lawrence Funeral Service dying in 1898. The firm was headed latterly by Major Reginald John Sowerby son of Francis who lived at Oak Mount Sutherland Road Lightcliffe. He died in 1923 after his company closed. The Raglan Street premises were taken over as an extra worsted factory by Standevens of Ladyship Mills. I am sure there are people around today who can remember them in business there and those firms which later occupied the same building.
