1814248076West Bloomfield NY 1814. 1 p. plus integral address leaf. 4to on a folded folio sheet. Old fold lines minor soiling; near fine. In a green half morocco and cloth clamshell case. 1 p. plus integral address leaf. 4to on a folded folio sheet. A hasty note written by Major General Jacob Brown to New York politician Nathan Williams requesting more arms and equipment for the siege of Fort Erie currently underway. The Americans led by Brown captured Fort Erie on July 3 1814. British forces led by Lt. General Gordon Drummond engaged the Americans at the bloody Battle of Lundy's Lane on July 25th where Brown was wounded; the Americans retreated to Fort Erie and Brown was sent off to convalesce. After repeated sorties and engagements the American commander General Gaines was gravely wounded and Brig. General Eleazer Ripley - who thought the whole operation was doomed to failure - took command. Brown though not quite recovered from wounds taken at the battle of Lundy's Lane the previous month was sent to replace the pessimistic Ripley as the commander of the Fort. Brown had made a name for himself at the battles of Sackett's Harbor and Lundy's Lane and his actions at the Siege would cement his position as a national hero winning him the Congressional Gold Medal in November 1814. Brown jotted this note before setting out to command the troops at the Fort. He writes:<br/> <br/>"My dear Sir I am so far on my way towards Buffalo. The militia turn out better than was expected. We shall I fear be deficient in arms. You will jump into your easy carriage and ride to Rome as fast as possible upon the receipt of this and see that the keeper of the arsenal there forwards fifteen hundred stand with equipments compleat with all the rapidity possible. Your attention is of much importance."<br/> <br/>A wonderful letter written by Major General Jacob Brown on his way to the battle that would ensure his lasting fame. unknown books

1671D6213Amsterdam: Barent Otto Smient 1671. Hardcover. Very Good. 12mo 155 x 90mm. In two parts separately titled and paginated Lof-Sang op het geestelyk houwelyk van godes soone Laudatory Song on the Spiritual Marriage of the Son of God. 44 544pp. 120pp. 5. Added engraved title page Proef steen van den trou-ringh in addition to the letterpress title to the first work two engraved full-page portraits one of prolific artist and poet Anna Maria van Schurman and one of Jacob Cats and a full-page allegorical engraving Het Derde Deel facing p. 249 in addition to 51 half-page engravings in the text depicting scenes of domestic and married life. Engraved printers device depicting Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Near contemporary vellum ms. title to spine somewhat effaced; some slight thumbsoiling lightly toned with age; corners bumped. <br/><br/>This 1671 edition based on the imprint of Trou-Ringh by Jacob Cats was first published in Dordrecht in 1637. Cats a Dutch Golden Age poet and politician wrote these rhymed dissertations on marriage and fidelity using very different marriage cases from literature in which conjugal ethics emerged. Cats method was to treat human behavior and society in all its aspects through the lens of marriage both human and spiritual ie. the marriage of Christ and His Church. He takes examples from the Bible Adam and Eve David and Abigail etc. and from classical and modern authors Cyrus and Aspasia Marc Anthony and Cleopatra etc. Cats tells of marriages to patriarchs ancient and modern; cases from Israel Persia Egypt from the life of Charles the Great and of the Great Mogul and Spanish gypsies. Also included are discussions of marriage after rape the breaking of marriage bonds adultery and the like. Because marriage dominated all periods and regions of the world all classes all ages with a variety of feelings and soul states this work resonated with the reader although Cats unusual storytelling intended moral and religious teachings. He propagated that marriage with its many possibilities and moral demands which it always must fulfill totally belong together: as do the ring and the stone. Cats was a distinguished Dutch writer but his Orangist and Calvinistic opinions set him apart from the liberal school of Amsterdam poets. Still for nearly two centuries he enjoyed enormous popularity. Wonderfully preserved important work on 17th century societal structures the many engravings are delightful and captivating.
