420p. Damp stained. Age stained. Bookplate of Mechanics' Library, Lancaster, Pa. With their stamp on title page, and related stamps embossed in blind. Tall 8vo. Original full black publisher's cloth binding, rubbed and worn. Hardbound. Lewis Cass (1782-1866) was an American military officer and politician. During the War of 1812, he served as Brigadier General. As a reward for his service he was appointed Governor of the Michigan Territory by President James Madison. In 1831 he resigned as Governor of the Michigan Territory to take the post of Secretary of War under President Andrew Jackson, serving until 1836. Cass was a central figure in formulating and implementing the Indian Removal policy of the Jackson administration. From 1836 to 1842, he was U.S. Ambassador to France. Cass represented the State of Michigan in the United States Senate from 1845 to 1848. In 1848 he resigned from the Senate to run for President. Cass was a leading supporter of the Doctrine of Popular Sovereignty, which held that the people who lived in a territory should decide whether or not to permit slavery there. His nomination caused a split in the Democratic party, leading many antislavery Democrats to join the Free Soil Party. After losing the election to Zachary Taylor, he returned to the Senate, serving from 1849 to 1857. Cass then served as Secretary of State under President James Buchanan (1857-1860). This book was apparently issued in hopes that Cass would again run for the Presidency in 1852. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! AMERICANA BOX 1

160 pages including bibliography and Beothuck Vocabulary. The Beothuks. Genocide. The words go together in history - Canadian history. Few Canadians know that this country's early settlers and explorers exterminated a race of Indians; sold them into slavery; hunted, terrorized and slaughtered them, often for sheer sport. The story of the Beothucks will never be fully known, but a fascinating and moving history of a lost race emerges from the words and drawings left by Shananditti, the only survivor of her Newfoundland nation, and confirmed by archeological research. This is a biography both harsh and tragic, but it also speaks of courage, endurance and love. Moderate to average wear. Unmarked. Book

There has not been any previous collection of relevant ancient sources in a form suitable for students or specialists in disciplines such as Modern or Social and Economic History unfamiliar with the classical languages - indeed, there does not even exist such a collection for specialists in Classics. -- This selection provides readers interested in ancient slavery with translations in contemporary English of those major texts from Greek and Latin literature to which modern scholarship constantly refers, as well as a small sample of the epigraphical and other non-literary material. -- Cross-references, Bibliography, and a detailed Index are provided to make it particularly suitable for use by School and University classes. Although it is intended as a supplement and not a substitute for a systematic treatment of the subject, and the author s interpretative comment is kept to a minimum, the material is arranged with introductions bringing out the significance of each of the chosen passages. 283p, map incdex Book
