1756elala1110Paris: l'Imprimerie Royale 1756. 1756. 12mo. pp. viii 275. full modern mottled calf a few scattered stains. First Duodecimo Edition. Published the same year as the first edition in quarto. This is the French reply to an English memorial addressed to the courts of Europe stating their position on the war on the Ohio justifying their actions and setting forth their claims to the region west of the Alleghenies. Accusing the English of unprovoked aggression and foul play the French sought to demonstrate that it was Washington's 'assassination' of Jumonville in the Fort Necessity campaign among other offensive actions which had sparked the war. Most of the text is composed of 'pièces justificatives' comprising documents and letters written between 1749 and 1755 by La Jonquière Governor of New France Albemarle Rouillé General Braddock Contrecoeur Villiers Sir William Johnson George Washington and Robert Stobo an engineer with Washington who had planned Fort Necessity. Among the more important papers are translations of the instructions given to Braddock by the British Crown letters to and from Braddock and Sir William Johnson and various officials two of Johnson's 'harangues' to the Indians and the first printing although in French translation of extracts from the journal kept by George Washington in the 1754 expedition to fortify the forks of the Ohio that ended with the British surrender to the French at Fort Necessity in July 1754 pp. 109-146. This is quite distinct from Washington's first journal of his mission for Governor Dinwiddie late in 1753 printed at Williamsburg in 1754. Most of these British papers were seized by the French following the capitulation at Fort Necessity. An early work on the French and Indian War described by Lawrence Wroth in his John Carter Brown Library report for 1945-46' as "one of the most important documents in American colonial history."

1719F5OGBDYNZ8OAAmsterdam: Gerard Valk 1719. Very large engraved folding plan comprising 1 1/2 sheets measuring 46 x 83 cm as assembled engraved by Danckert Danckertsz. and his father after drawings by Jacob Vennekool including the two hemispheres of the world map and a celestial map of the constellations of the northern hemisphere each 10 cm in diameter. Very large engraved plan showing the extraordinary cartographic mosaic floor of the Burgerzaal of the Amsterdam City Hall designed by Jacob van Campen with a celestial map in the centre and the magnificent map of the world in 2 hemispheres on either side. The engraving was first published in 1661 and the map shows Tasman's recent discoveries in Australia and Tasmania and depicts California as an island. Many discoveries from his second voyage remained otherwise unpublished until the end of the 17th-century. This engraved representation is all that is left of this cartographical work of art. Wear caused by people walking on the mosaic meant it had to be restored about a hundred years later. When in turn this restoration was damaged the two hemispheres were filled in with plain marble slabs without pictorial representation.The drawing of the floor was made by Jacob Vennekool who worked closely with Van Campen and since his drawings were first published even before the building was completed they may reflect Van Campen's plan more closely than the finished building itself. They also of course show it before the alterations made at various times in later years.Slightly wrinkled in the right margin one fold reinforced and a few tiny spots otherwise in very good condition.l Cf.

179513033N.p. likely Maryland: January 20 1795. 2pp. with integral leaf addressed and docketed. Old mailing folds minor unobtrusive chipping to edges some old tape repairs some toning. Margins of address leaf reinforced with later sheet. Overall good condition. A document of almost pure irony in which a Maryland militia member who served for the government during the Whiskey Rebellion petitions the governor of Maryland for relief from a fine of 600 pounds of tobacco levied on him and his wife for.selling whiskey without a license. Apparently during the time in which Cable "was drafted to go against the insurgents and during his absence" Cable's wife "sold liquor for the support of her family to wit 3 small children." Upon his return from service and during the January 1795 term of the Baltimore County court Cable "was presented for selling liquors without license and was fined 600 lbs of Toba for said offence." Here Cable asks Governor Stone and the "Home Council" for forgiveness of the fine. <br /> <br /> It worked. According to a note on the verso signed by three "Justices of Baltimore County Court" they found "compassion" for Cable "in remitting the fine imposed as stated in the within Petition." Though the central issue of the Whiskey Rebellion was the 1791 excise tax on whiskey which angered farmers in western Pennsylvania enough to violently resist it it is some level of irony that Cable asks for mercy from the court for selling liquor without a license incurred while he was fighting the farmers resisting the whiskey tax.

1782188151Rome: apud Antonium Fulgonium 1782. Ancient Arabic coins and the early study of the Kufic script First edition of this well-illustrated work on ancient Arabic numismatics in Kufic script - "one of the works which traditionally mark the birth of Arabic palaeography" D'Ottone - studying and illustrating the renowned collection of antiquities of Cardinal Stefano Borgia 1731-1804. Jacob Georg Christian Adler 1756-1834 studied Coptic Syriac and Arabic manuscripts and artefacts across Europe. His introduction to this work summarizes the state of the art in the field of Arabic numismatics quoting sources based on the study of major collections of ancient Arabic coins in Italy Spain England Germany Holland and Denmark. He mentions important scholars in the field including the traveller Carsten Niebuhr who visited places in modern-day Yemen and Saudi Arabia. Adler discusses the origin antiquity and ornaments of Arabic coins reproducing the original Arabic inscriptions. He noted that Muslims do not represent the Prophet Muhammad and God figuratively; thus unlike in Europe Arabic coins also do not bear rulers' effigies. A section is devoted to observations on the Kufic script diacritics and other philological observations. The following sections provide textual descriptions of the Arabic inscriptions on the coins Adler examined including those of the Abbasid Fatimid Ayyubid Seleucid Turkman and Atabeg dynasties from the Middle East and Spain. He also examined Arabic coins produced by Christians especially in Sicily under King Roger and his successors and provides a bilingual text on Arabo-Islamic coins and their history taken from a manuscript at El Escorial a text on Arabic seals and another on Druze coins. The detailed plates reproduce the Kufic script 101 Arabic coins both sides 6 Arabic seals and Druze idols and monumental inscriptions. After the success of this ground-breaking volume Adler published an additional one in 1793 based on new acquisitions by Borgia. Folio 280 x 200 mm pp. VI 2 172.
