Blanche Henrey 883 mentioning that not all copies of this edition have the two plates and ours does not. In effect the third edition though the preceeding two have the title "The Scots Gardiners Director". Sir James Justice 1698 - 1763 was a Scottish horticulturalist/gardener. His works on gardening were distributed in much of Britain and Ireland. He reportedly had a passion for botanical experiments which he pursued at the expense of his finances and family. Indeed the later miniaturist John Kay wrote that tulipomania was the cause of him parting with his estate at Crichton and the purchase of a smaller one. His divorce and expulsion from the Fellowship in the Royal Society has been blamed on the expenses he put into greenhouses and soil mixtures. He is nevertheless a noted figure in Scottish gardening with a claim to be the father of it. The genus Justicia is named for him. Full-Leather. Good. A. Kincaid & J. Bell; R. Fleming Hardcover

19443153Newell Ca: November 1944. Very good. 13pp. mimeographed forms printed on rectos only. Minor wear small paper clip rust stains to top edges. A cover letter datelined "November blank 1944 Newell California" intended to accompany the attached blank version of the actual application intended for use by Tule Lake internees wishing to renounce their United States citizenship. The cover letter is pre-addressed to the Attorney General and Edward J. Ennis the director of the Justice Department's Alien Enemy Control Unit in Washington D.C. The form letter begins "I wish to renounce my United States nationality in accordance with the recent government promulgation so I am enclosing a typewritten copy of this application form executed by me." A blank copy of the application is included here numbering three pages. The application includes a renunciation statement intended to be signed by applicants followed by ten questions pertaining to the applicant's history of birth residence last point of entry into the U.S. close relations education military service Selective Service classification and a declaration that the applicant has given "true and correct" answers intended to be dated and signed at the end.<br /> <br /> Tule Lake became the holding center for Japanese American internees viewed as disloyal after the issuance of the infamous loyalty questionnaire in the summer of 1943. These "disloyal segregees" were sent to Tule Lake where they suffered ostracization from fellow internees poorer living conditions inferior food and harsher treatment from American military guards among other indignities. There were even disagreements among the segregated internees as some of them truly wished for repatriation to Japan and identified as Japanese while others viewed this group as disloyal and undeserving of assistance or relief. In other words not only were these internees seen as disloyal by their own government but also by some of their fellow internees. Their feeling of dislocation ran deep. Eventually many of these segregees sought to renounce their American citizenship and repatriate to Japan. The present forms were many internees' first step in this process. November unknown

197013059Iowa City: Stone Wall Press 1970. Limited Edition. Softcover. Fine. Quarto unpaginated. A fine copy in the publisher's prown printed wraps very slightly offset on the rear wrap. A pleasing association copy SIGNED and warmly INSCRIBED by Justice on the first leaf to fellow poet Mark Strand and his wife Antonia: "To Mark & Antonia Strand as the dedication was supposed to have read Don Justice May 1970." There is no printed dedication. While there is a lenghty Acknowledgments section Justice simply thanks a number of publications for allowing his poems to be reprinted here. As such given the content of the inscription this may be the closest thing to a "dedication copy" imaginable. Merker the printer writes: "One of the things that was hard for me was that Don didn't really appreciate what I was trying to do. It was hard to get very enthused about doing a book for someone who would not appreciate what you had done no matter how well you did it." Berger 40. Justice's passive-aggressive inscription seems to corroborate Merker's account of the tension between author and publisher. Stone Wall Press unknown
