This is bound with Eothen or Traces of Travel brought Home from the East by ALexander William Kinglake. This also has a Critical and Biographical Introduction by Jacques W. Redway 228 pages. From Wikipedia: "Jehan de Mandeville" translated as "Sir John Mandeville" is the name claimed by the compiler of The Travels of Sir John Mandeville a book account of his supposed travels which probably first appeared in Anglo-Norman French and first circulated between 1357 and 1371. By aid of translations into many other languages it acquired extraordinary popularity. Despite the extremely unreliable and often fantastical nature of the travels it describes it was used as a work of reference Christopher Columbus for example was heavily influenced by both this work and Marco Polo's earlier Il Milione. Also from Wikipedia: "Alexander William Kinglake 5 August 1809 2 January 1891 was an English travel writer and historian. He was born near Taunton Somerset and educated at Eton College and Trinity College Cambridge. 1 He was called to the Bar in 1837 and built up a thriving legal practice which in 1856 he abandoned in order to devote himself to literature and public life. His first literary venture had been Eothen; or Traces of travel brought home from the East London: J. Ollivier 1844 a very popular work of Eastern travel apparently first published anonymously in which he described a journey he made about ten years earlier in Syria Palestine and Egypt together with his Eton contemporary Lord Pollington. Elliot Warburton said it evoked "the East itself in vital actual reality" and it was instantly successful. However his magnum opus was his Invasion of the Crimea in 8 volumes published from 1863 to 1887 by Blackwood Edinburgh one of the most effective works of its class. It has been accused of being too favourable to Lord Raglan and unduly hostile to Napoleon III for whom the author had an extreme aversion. The town of Kinglake in Victoria Australia and the adjacent national park are named after him. A Whig Kinglake was elected at the 1857 general election as one of the two Members of Parliament MP for Bridgwater having unsuccessfully contested the seat in 1852. He was returned at next two general elections but the result of the 1868 general election in Bridgwater was voided on petition on 26 February 1869. No by-election was held and after a Royal Commission found that there had extensive corruption the town was disenfranchised in 1870." D. Appleton and Company hardcover

London: J. Tonson 1728 Fifth Edition and James Roberts 1729. First Edition. Very Good.<br/><br/> This is one of many editions of the famous and popular satire on the true causes of social welfare and riches Mandeville suggesting that base behavior produces positive economic effects. The conspiratorial theory of the origin of society so prominent in Part I was widely criticized after the publication of the 1723 edition. In the second volume probably in response to his critics Mandeville moved towards a more evolutionary account of society. This had an influence on the thinking of David Hume. Mandeville also adumbrated the division of labour theory subsequently developed by Adam Smith.<br/><br/> J. Tonson unknown books
1801319639Philadelphia 1801. Small circular engraved broadside engraved by Draper. Approx. 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Inlaid into a larger sheet at a later date. Small circular engraved broadside engraved by Draper. Approx. 3 1/2 inches in diameter. America Looks to the Future: An Unusual Early American Perpetual Calendar. The Explanation running arount the outer border of the lower portion of the Calendar details its use: "Intersect the Column of the Month by the circle in which the Year stands & the Day you there find look for under October which day of the week with those on the right hand will stand over such Days of the Month as falls on them." The Explanation continues with how to determine days of the month using the calendar in the previous century and into the 20th century.<br/><br/>A January 14 1802 review in the Philadelphia Gazette extolls its virtues: ".I am induced to think that sufficient justice can hardly be done to the ingenuity of this little production: The Author has modestly called it a Calendar for the 19th Century while it is in fact a Calendar for twenty-one centuries . It will shew sic in what day of the week an event in history occurred . This Calendar is handsomely executed on copperplate . when framed its figure and beauty will entitle it to a station in the parlour as well as counting house." The review further reveals that the Calendar was being sold for $.25 and was also being marketed as a hat maker's label. <br/><br/>Just a few days prior to that review Mandeville had taken the liberty of sending his Calendar to President Thomas Jefferson writing to him on January 9 1802: "Permit me the honor to present to you . a Calendar for the Nineteenth Century to which I have recently given publicity -- Should I learn that in your estimation I have combined usefulness with originality and comeliness I shall be highly gratified.". According to Philadelphia Directories from the period David Mandeville lived at North Sixth Street in Philadelphia in 1801 and 1802 and worked as an "accomptant" and clerk in the Bank of the United States. The broadside is engraved by John Draper; a former apprentice to Robert Scot he engraved for Dobson's Encyclopedia and was an early American banknote engraver. <br/> <br/>Very rare with only three examples recorded by Shaw and Shoemaker American Antiquarian Society New York Public Library and Massachusetts Historical Society. The AAS example with a variant spelling of the word Calendar "Calender" and with the engraver's name below the outer circle suggesting two issues. Shaw-Shoemaker 269 unknown books
