200181459bdMontgomery Alabama: River City Publishing 2001. Large octavo softbound stiff slick full-color illus. white wrappers 302 pp. Fine As New. From lower cover: For most people Florida means palm trees beaches and Mickey Mouse. But there’s another more timeless Florida of places like Crescent City and the St. Johns River where Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings’s books Cross Creek and The Yearling come alive; of places like Eatonville where Zora Neale Hurston lived and St. Petersburg where Jack Kerouac died; of places like Cassadaga where you can have your fortune told; and Tallahassee where the presidency -- and our nation’s fortunes -- were twice decided. This is David Warner’s Florida. Vanishing Florida. River City Publishing, (2001). paperback books
189938647n.p.: n.p. 1899. First edition. Stapled paper wrappers. A very good copy with toned edges. 14 pp. 8vo. American essayist and novelist Charles Dudley Warner Twain's coauthor on The Gilded Age was a lawyer by training and wrote this article against the backdrop of criminal reform in Connecticut. In it he gives attention to the rules and regulations of parole and parole violations in particular defense of the Indeterminate Sentence which Warner describes as a scientific a disciplinary a really humanitarian method. "We have tried all other means of protecting society of lessening the criminal class of reforming the criminal. The proposed Indeterminate Sentence with reformatory discipline is the only one that promises to relieve society of the insolent domination and the terrorism of the criminal class; is the only one that can deter men from making a career of crime; is the only one that offers a fair prospect for the reformation of the criminal offender. Why not try it Why not put the whole system of criminal jurisprudence and procedure for the suppression of crime upon a sensible and scientific basis" Quite uncommon. It would be quoted in full in The Connecticut Magazine Vol. 5 in support of a bill on prison reform and later be republished in his "Fashions in Literature" 1902.
