A nice collection of British Acts of Parliament relating to the Royal Navy or related seagoing activities. The dominance of the British Royal Navy was unquestioned from the late 1600s until well into the 20th century.

Â¶ FIRST EDITION of this important collection of Parliamentary debates providing original and valuable documentation of the constitutional crisis that ensued during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. James II of England a.k.a. James VII of Scotland while fleeing to France dropped the Great Seal of the Realm into the Thames. In Parliament the question was discussed whether he had forfeited the throne or had abdicated. The present volume offers detailed arguments for the both but ultimately the latter designation was agreed upon and in a full assembly of the Lords and Commons it was resolved in spite of James's protest "that King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom by breaking the original contract between king and people and by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons having violated the fundamental laws and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom has abdicated the government and that the throne is thereby vacant." The Scottish parliament pronounced a decree of forfeiture and deposition. Â¶ In our copy the imprint reads "and to be sold" in another issue the imprint reads "and sold". Â¶ References: Wing 2nd ed.

England & Wales. Parliament. House of Commons.ABAA

The humble address of the House of Commons presented to His Majesty upon Tuesday the 21th. day of December 1680. In answer to His Majesties gracious speech to both houses of Parliament upon the 15th. day of the same December.

168031090London: John Wright & Richard Chiswell 1680. Folio 27.1 cm 10.75". 4 13343 1 pp. with England & Wales. Sovereign 16601685: Charles II. His Majesties declaration to all his loving subjects touching the causes & reasons that moved him to dissolve the two last parliaments. London: Pr. by the assigns of John Bill Thomas Newcomb & Henry Hills 1681. Folio. 10 2 pp. Â Â Â Â First editions of two significant documents one from Parliament and one from Charles II regarding the furor over the Exclusion Bill. In the first work the tone is indeed almost aggressively humble as per the title but the position is utterly unyielding: The Catholic Duke of York will not be accepted in the line of succession as Charles II's life will allegedly be in constant deadly danger as long as there is any possibility of "a Popish Successor" p. 135. In response to the "Humble Address" Charles dismissed the Parliament and called another which also refused to do his bidding after which he issued the second piece here an attempt at justification which invokes the Fitzharris treason case. Â Â Â Â Provenance: These two copies were joined together by a contemporary reader who marked the recto of the printing permission of the first piece with "The Address" and the verso of the permission of the second piece that is that piece's final page with "The King's Declaration. This read in ye Parochial Church of Thrandeston May ye first Anno Domini 1681. Tho. Mael." Mael served as rector of Thrandeston from 1670 until his death in 1709.

LAW. TORTURE. Arrest de la Cour de Parlement contre Robert-Francois Damiens 26 Mars 1757. WITH: Arrest de la cour de Parlement contre la famille de Robert-Francois Damiens 29 Mars 1757

17571623Paris: P.G. Simon 1757. First Edition. Unbound. Very good. 4to: 13 1 pp. final page blank. Original self-wrappers stitched some soiling. Top corner of the margins have a diagonal cut no loss of text perhaps to remove the "Arrest" from others that were fastened together otherwise the edges are untrimmed. ADDED: Arrest de la cour de Parlement contre la famille de Robert-Francois Damiens Extrait des registres du Parlement. Du 29 Mars 1757. 4to: 3 pp. THE INFAMOUS DAMIENS TRIAL CHANGED THE CRIMINAL PUNISHMENT PROCESS IN CIVILIZED NATIONS WORLDWIDE. Â¶ First printing of all the gruesome details of the trial and death sentence by torture on Robert-Francois Damiens for feebly attempting to assassinate Louis XV. The sentence mandated execution by means of torture that was so cruel so ghastly so horrible and so sickening that it merited immediate and justifiable outrage on an international scale and even now continues to shock legal and sociological historians notably Michel Fouchault who described Damiens's torture and execution at length in his pioneering work on "Discipline and Punishment" 1979. Damiens' was the last sentence of its kind in France and the events prompted real changes in the punishment phase of the legal system in France and elsewhere. Â¶ By the present Parliamentary decree the Royal Executioner aided by sixteen assistants was ordered first to torture Damiens with red-hot pincers; the hand with which Damiens had held the knife during the attempted assassination was to be burned with sulpher. Then molten wax molten lead and boiling oil were to be poured into the aforementioned wounds. He was then to be publicly drawn and quartered. Â¶ All of this went according to plan except for the final punishment: Damiens' limbs did not separate even after several horrific hours during which time two of the four horses became so exhausted that they had to be replaced by two fresh horses. Damiens' endless shrieks were so incredibly disturbing that many people in the crowd -- including the Royal Executioner Nicolas-Charles-Gabriel Sanson -- were unable to watch and turned away. The officiants came to realize that the process simply was simply not working. As Sanson had abrubtly resigned from his post his son was ordered to partially cut Damiens' limbs with an ax in order to save the horses from further misery. When at last Damiens' limbs were pulled apart his reportedly still-living torso was burnt at the stake. Â¶ Ours appear to be the only copies on the market. Â¶ ADDED: The Edict which sentenced Damiens' family their only crime being that they were in some way related to him. The "Arrest de la cour de Parlement contre la famille de Robert-FranÃ§ois Damiens Extrait des registres du Parlement" is the infamous 3-page pamphlet that was published on March 29 1757 i.e. on the day following Damiens' execution; it records the Parliamentary sentence of Damiens' family which mandated that: the house of Damiens' birth was to be razed; his wife daughter and father were to be banished from France and all other relatives were ordered to change their names with immediate effect.

GREENLAND WHALE FISHERY British Acts of ParliamentABAA

A series of 12 British Acts of Parliament concerning whaling mostly in Greenland and the Davis Strait

181824993London: John Baskett and others printers 1818. 12 works folio. 12 1/2 x 8 inches and smaller. Disbound or stitched A fascinating series spanning the whole of the period when whaling was carried out on a successful commercial basis in the waters off Greenland. After an abortive start by the South Sea Company between 1724 and 1732 the British whaling fleet operated off Greenland and the Davis Strait throughout the remainder of the 18th century with increasing success due to a large degree to the succession of bounties granted to ship owners by the British Government. The present selection of acts of parliament includes a number concerning the bounty: the first dated 16th January 1732 makes law "that a Bounty will be paid on the Return of every Ship of 200 tons and over imployed by His Majesty's Subjects in the Whale Fishery". For the bounty to be paid certain stringent criteria had to be met; these increased as the century progressed. By the time of the last Act in the present group March 1818 the Greenland whalers were reporting declining catches and were already beginning to turn their attention to other whaling grounds i.e. largely in the Pacific and Antarctic. This group offers and interesting series of snapshots of the industry during its most productive century. The acts comprise: 1. An Act for encouraging the Greenland Fishery. 1732. Stitched later wrappers. Exemption from duty extended for a nine year period. 2. An Act for the further Encouragment of the Whale Fishery carried on by His Majesty's British Subjects. 1733. Stitched later wrappers. The introduction of a bounty for ships over 200 tons. 3. An Act for continuing the several Laws therein mentioned . including granting a further Bounty for all Ships employed in the Whale Fishery during the present War; for exempting Harponers and others . from being impressed. No date but circa 1750. Spine reinforced. The bounty raised by a third other measures to help the trade. 4. An Act for granting a additional Bounty on Ships employed in the Greenland and Whale Fishery for a limited time. No adte but circa 1761. Disbound. The increased bounty confirmed for another five years. 5.An Act for further continuing several Acts . for the Encouragement of the Whale Fishery. 1768. Stitched. 6. An Act for the better Support and Establishment of the Greenland and Whale Fishery. 1771. Stitched. The rules about the amount of bounty to be paid has changed with additional laws concerning vessels of American origin exemption from duty extended to include the Gulf of St. Lawrence certain members of a whaler's crew to be exempt from being pressed into service in the Royal Navy etc. 7.An Act to explain and amend Two Acts made . with respect to the Limits of the Greenland Seas and Davis's Streights . and to enlarge the Time for the Return of the Vessels employed in the Whale Fisheries. 1780. Stitched. 8. An Act for granting an additional Bounty on Ships employed in the Greenland and Whale Fishery for a limited Time. 1782. Disbound. The bounty retained for a further five years. 9. An Act for allowing Vessels employed in the Greenland Whale Fishery to complete their full Number of Men at certain Ports for the Present Season. 1805. Spine strengthened. Whaling ships permitted to call in to ports in Scotland the Orkneys and the Shetland Islands to find men to complete their crews. 10. An Act for allowing until the Signature of Preliminary Articles of Peace Vessels . to complete their full Number of Men at certain ports. 1806. Spine strenghtened. An extension of the previous act. 11. An Act to revive and continue for five years several Laws. 1815. Strengthened spine. Several prvious acts re-confirmed. 12.
