189043057Boston: Benj. R. Tucker 1890. First English Language Edition. Octavo 19.5cm.; publisher's red gilt-lettered cloth; 3123adspp.; added color lithographic title page. Light shelf wear miniscule damp spot to upper cover spine a shade darkened contemporary ownership signature to front free endpaper and bookplate to front pastedown late 20th-century bookseller's ticket to front pastedown else Very Good or better. Though first published in France in 1843 "Mon Oncle Benjamin" was not previously available to an English-speaking readership before individualist anarchist publisher Benjamin R. Tucker's translation which appeared just in time for Christmas 1890. The novel which is set in the last days of the reign of Louis XV and into that of the doomed Louis XVI recounts the exploits of a hapless doctor the eponymous Uncle Benjamin who takes poorly to the administering of medicine but excels at drinking and accruing unpaid debts. Like many novels Tucker chose to translate and publish "My Uncle Benjamin" is not overtly anarchist though as one early review notes "very little thought is given sometimes for the sensibilities of the pious or the delicate reader but with tender regard to the sacredness of human rights and feelings" from "The Brooklyn Daily Eagle" under the header "A Virile Old French Novel" December 28 1890.

191332077Chicago: I.W.W. Publishing Bureau n.d. but 1913. Reprint 1917. 12mo 17cm.; original drab pictorial staplebound card wrappers; 32pp. Wrappers separated and staples cleanly removed; still a Good complete copy of a very uncommon pamphlet. Accompanied by the original cover artwork 43x27.75cm. black ink on cream stock several losses and a few closed tears to margins none approaching image old vertical fold line stock rather brittle from age and poor quality else Near Very Good. Quite possibly the earliest iteration of Ralph Chaplin's now-ubiquitous "Sabo-Tabby" the I.W.W.'s black cat symbol for sabotage. The present work shows the black cat with its claws fully extended while it arches its back on top of a bag of money coins spilling out. As Chaplin later wrote "My 'Sab Cat' was supposed to symbolize the 'slow down' as a means of 'striking on the job'" cf. https://iww.org/history/icons/black_cat though many including the United States government interpreted it as something much more pernicious. In fact the accompanying pamphlet with its cover art and title raised serious red flags and by the time the United States entered WW1 all copies of Sabotage still in the hands of the I.W.W. were destroyed. The present copy has the small promotional blurb by Jack London dated 1913 on p. 32 though the headquarters address printed on the recto and verso of the rear wrapper 1001 W. Madison St. in Chicago indicates that this is a reprint dating around 1917 probably just before an order was made to destroy all copies. MILES 462. I.W.W. Publishing Bureau unknown books

1735279042Dublin: Samuel Fairbrother 1735. Regarding an important controversy over taxation of landed Protestants of Ireland by the Clergy. Many were forced by economics to sell their lands and leave; the result of this "tythe" was threat of mass emigration to America by the remaining Protestants. A report from an ad hoc committee of the Irish House of Commons called in 1735 to consider an important question on tax burden and emigration. Irish clergy had demanded an additional income from the imposition of a tax for "agistment" pasturage of cattle on Irish Protestant landowners. The committee decided after reviewing the evidence presented in this report that the tax would "impair the Protestant interest" by causing Protestants to emigrate to America reducing the influence of the established church in Ireland. It resolved to find a "proper remedy" though it took no legal action until the Irish House of Commons was dissolved in 1800 when the parliament in London forced an abolition of the old tithes as a formality. 8 folded quarto leaves in a folded drab portfolio.
