Manuscript Map of The World Caption title.

18379386England 1837. Good . 11¾" x 21" in frame measuring 13½" x 23¾". Manuscript map in pen and ink highlighted in pink yellow and blue. Good plus: not examined outside of frame a few tears chips and small losses. This is an exquisite world map in pen and ink. We think it's English in origin as there is a notation on the far left of the equator in the Western Hemisphere which reads "Longitude West from London." We imagine the artist used a map dated 1824 or earlier as Australia is drawn as "New Holland" whereas "Australia" was officially adopted by the British in 1824. Everything West of the Mississippi is denoted as "New Mexico" North and South America are outlined in yellow while Africa and New Holland are outlined in blue. unknown

[Antebellum South – Travel Narratives] Barnard, CalvinBiblio.com

A Letter Written from Augusta Georgia Describing the Author’s Voyage from Boston to Augusta Georgia in 1818

1818List2715Augusta Georgia 1818. Single letter three 9 x 16 inch pages letters with some tape repairs and stray holes at folds still quite legible. Very good. A letter written by Calvin Barnard to his friend Asa Holman of Bolton Massachusetts describing the formerâ€™s trip from Boston to Augusta South Carolina from November 25 to January 1. Barnard first traveled from Boston to Charleston South Carolina by boat from which he notes â€œalmost a continual gagging and vomitingâ€ from the passengers. In Charleston Barnard observes that the city is inelegant the unpaved streets â€œfilled with mudâ€ and views â€œthe breastworks which were thrown up during the last warâ€. This would have been the War of 1812 of which Barnard was likely a veteran. South Carolina had engaged upwards of 5000 soldiers and had put up defenses along the coastline in anticipation of the war but it did not come to the mainland â€“ although South Carolina was under naval blockade and the Sea Islands were targeted by the British. Barnard reaches Savannah Georgia on the 25th of December; similarly he finds it â€œalthough a place of considerable businessâ€ â€œabout as dissatisfactory a place I ever was in.â€ Augusta which he reaches by foot â€œis much handsomer built and situated than Savannah but not less dissipatedâ€ â€“ he remarks that â€œBeing the first day of the year is in this part of the country another great day for getting drunk.â€ After spending some time in Augusta he finishes the letter with some pointed observations about its residents: â€œI have had a better opportunity of becoming acquainted with the manners customs and dispositions of the citizens of Augusta . I shall not do them injustice by dividing them into three classes in which the Negroes are excepted. The first class of which are the gentry as they would expect to be called made up of men from all parts who have become rich here mostly by avaricious and unjust means . And this class we cannot expect to see drink more than once a week. The second is mostly the natives of this state and South Carolina who are men of a little property of a little education and very little of an honorable principle of any kind and these are not often seen drunk in the forenoon. The third class appears to me to be made up of the off-scouring of every bad place on earth for I never saw their equal for drunkenness lying stealing fighting swearing from morning till morning again. It is not possible that the continent of America has in any other place their equal. If it had I think the whole world soon be sunk.â€ He finds Augustaâ€™s African-American residents the only trustworthy ones despite local opinions: â€œIf any stealing is done here it is laid to the Negroes but I had my surtout a shirt and handkerchief stolen on Friday night last but have too good an opinion of the blacks to think they have them.â€ Of interest as an outsiderâ€™s views on the early Antebellum South and on drinking â€“ another pressing social issue of the day. unknown

COLTON CALVINABAA

Tour of the American Lakes and among the Indians of the North-West Territory in 1830: disclosing the character and prospects of the Indian race

183324226London: Frederick Westley and A.H. Davis 1833. First edition 8vo 2 volumes pp. xxxii 316; vii 1 387; slightly later half calf over marbled boards red morocco labels on spines; rebacked with old spines laid down; good and sound. Colton 1789-1857 who gave up his ministry because of the failure of his voice went to England in 1831 as a correspondent for the New York Observer. Unlike his earlier religious works which are of little value "his descriptive narratives of travel are of much real value" see DAB. Field 345: "Mr. Colton seems to have been imbued with the laudable design of affording such information regarding the Indians he visited as would not only excite the interest of his readers in his narration of incident but would arouse the sympathy of the humane to their wretched condition. Almost the entire work is devoted to the relation of Indian affairs. More than half of the first volume is occupied with personal observations of Aboriginal life and statements made to him regarding it. The second volume is entirely filled with a collection of facts relating to their origin wars treaties treatment by the governments of Great Britain and the United States and the result of missions among them."

Public Economy for the United States

184866814Tarrif as Essential to Secure Freedom COLTON Calvin. Public Economy for the United States. New York: A.S. Barnes & Co. 1848. First edition. With the inscription "Hon. J. Colamer with Respects of the Author" to the front free endpaper. J. Colamer was a Senator from Virginia. Large octavo. 7 8-536 pp. Publisher's brown cloth gilt spine lettering. Some light foxing throughout. A near fine copy. Born in Longmeadow Massachussets Colton was ordained in 1816 and worked as a pastor in western New York. He later became a professor of political economy at Trinity College Connecticut. He was a strong advocate for the protection of home industries and most of his writings reflect that. Public Economy for the United States is his most extensive work. Colton said he preferred 'public economy' over 'political economy' because the word 'political' had been abused. Political economy is "the application of knowledge derived from experience to a given position to given interests and to given institutions of an independant state or nation for the increase of public and private wealth. Freedom is a thing of 'commercial value' and the parts of the world most free require protection against those less so because the sole object of protection is to maintain and fortify freedom. Protection as opposed to Free Trade thus accords with the principles of the American Revolution" Dorfman II 778. Kress C.7332. HBS 66814. $1500 A.S. Barnes & Co. hardcover books
