195173535New York: The Viking Press 1951. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. This classic play by Henrik Ibsen was adapted by Arthur Miller for a production that opened at the Broadhurst Theater on December 28 1950. It starred Academy Award winner Fredric March and his wife Florence Eldridge as well as Morris Carnovsky; future Oscar winner Rod Steiger was a "townsperson." Miller made several changes to make the late 19th century play more accessible to a 1950s audience. In addition to altering the speech and language alterations were made to the character of Dr. Stockmann to avoid having him champion eugenics. Octavo. Original gray cloth binding with black titles. A very good copy in a very good dust jacket with some general wear. The Viking Press hardcover books
61128bdUniversity Press of Florida 1998. Octavo gray cloth hardcover xvi 223 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: Early European descriptions of North America tell about a landscape and a variety of cultures in northeast Florida -- a region that had been occupied by native people for more than 10000 years -- that were unlike anything the explorers and settlers had ever encountered. This story of the land and people in that region of the St. Johns River and the Atlantic coast covers 18000 years -- from the Ice Age to the first half of the twentieth century. James Miller describes how natural features and cultural traditions were transformed and influenced by each other. Native Americans as well as Spanish English and American colonists developed unique cultural responses to opportunities and constraints of a changing envrionment. With an unusually broad scope in time space and subject matter he uses the example of northeast Florida to explore the notion of environmental equilibrium to illustrate the fallacy of a pristine envrionment and to show how essential envrionmental history is to modern ecological planning. Fully illustrated with 25 photographs and 40 maps and written in an accessible style that synthesizes material usually accessible only to specialists the book will appeal to general readers and policy planners as well as specialists. No comparable envrironmental history of any Florida region exists. hardcover books

Last leaf blank. 8vo. 23.5 cm x 14 cm. <br/><br/>This an interesting factual account regarding the early days of the prison an era when it wasn't quite impregnable edifice that now stands; in 1854 75 of 520 incarcerated individuals had escaped without recapture. This situation caused Governor John Bigler to write: "Gentlemen: Having learned from various reliable sources that quite a number of escapes have recently occurred from the State Prison which to some extent is in your charge I deem it my duty respectfully to invite your attention to the section of the law regulating your duties. These escapes permit me here to remark give great force to allegations daily and publicly made that the prison building is insecure and that its management is not such as to fully accomplish the object of its erection in prevention and punishment of crime." However since the place is still going strong one can be reasonably confident the governor's concerns were addressed. Rare; Not in Cowan Greenwood nor Rocq. Not in the LoC on-line catalogue.
