199211170Washington: Commission on the Bicentennial of the United States Constitution 1992. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Square small quarto 300pp. illustrated. A crisp clean copy near fine with the inner hinges just starting but holding. Top edge very faintly foxed. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Warren Burger on his embossed presentation card which is tipped onto the front paste-down. The name is a bit difficult to read but it is most likely Roswell Perkins who was President of the American Law Institute at the time of publication; certainly someone to whom Burger was likely to have presented this book. Burger had retired as Chief Justice several years before publication but was the Chairman of the committee that organized and published this book. An appealing copy.

Formerly attributed to Benjamin Franklin or his son William, this was probably mostly composed by Richard Jackson. Richard Jackson (d. 1787), London barrister, was called, because of his wide knowledge, 'the Omniscient Jackson.' He was agent for Connecticut, 1760-71; for Pennsylvania, 1763-70; and for Massachusetts, 1765-67; counsel to the Board of Trade, 1770, and M.P., 1762-84. He and Franklin assisted each other in preparing important pamphlets on colonial affairs. Through this review an argument is made asserting the primacy of the Provincial Assembly over the Proprietors. Sabin 25605 (citing the 1818 Philadelphia edition); Howes P204; Ford 253. EVANS2

The three extracts fiercely critical of the French emperor follow over a total of 61 lines with a few minor emendations. The differences from the published text are minor 'suitably and piously' for 'piously & suitably'; 'by even' for 'even by'The first extract of 24 lines present on p.456 in the published version begins: 'On the 24th. of October 1812 the French rear-guard left Moscow a day since piously & suitably commemorated by the Emperor's laying the first ston of a magnificent church dedicated to the "Redeemer'. The second extract of 23 lines preceding the first on p.456 of the published version begins: 'On the 14th. of September the advanced guard entered Moscow but Napoleon had scarcely reached the Kremlin when he saw the city in a blaze.' The last extract of 14 lines on pp.449-450 of the published version begins: 'In 1804 Napoleon was crowned Emperor of France. His first act was to dip his sceptre in blood.' Without date or place.

Paris, Visse, 1791. In-8, VIII-59p. Edition originale de cette pièce de théâtre.
