19191003928vo original cloth 260 pp. Backstrip somewhat faded and lettering on front cover is rubbed paper a bit aged but only slightly. Very good overall. Bishop William Moses was known as the "Baptist Garvey" and was actually a close friend of Marcus Garvey. He stood by Garvey when he was under attack and indicted for mail fraud and continued to speak out in his behalf. Unfortunately he was also involved with Garvey in a disastrous attempt to negotiate an agreement with the Ku Klux Klan. Garvey lost a lot of supporters because of this and Moses pastor of the Philadelphia Zion Baptist Church was asked to leave the church by the elders. This work focuses on the subjugation of the dark races by whites. Moses' goes through history to make his point and much of the discussion is on the international community. His solution for black advancement seems to be "black evangelism" or an active role of the church in the social and political development of the dark races. Lisle Carey Press hardcover books

029644folio 4 pages the manuscript is undated but is written on laid paper watermarked 1811 and mentions troubles caused on July 12 1813 “Orangemen’s Day” and clearly dates from his days in Belfast Ireland. Dawson touches on sectarian strife and speaks highly critically and in his typically combative style of the chief magistrate responsible for the expulsion of seven thousand Catholics from county Armagh and for those responsible for continuing the strife in the present case in Belfast. The manuscript is identified as being “The handwriting of Moses Dawson biographer of Harrison” on the last page. Comparison with other letters by Dawson bears this out. The manuscript is headed: “The particular attention of the members of the Established church of the Parish of Belfast is particularly requested to the report of the Trial of Dr. Tennent at the quarter sessions last week – and in order to place the evidence given on that trial in as clear a point of view as possible particularly that part of it which went to convict the Doctor and that which was given in exculpation – it shall be given under particular heads as D. & C. “ Dawson relates an account of the trial for the course of 2 ½ pages before heading into a second section of a page and a half which begins “Now my friends here is a fair and impartial statement of this account laid before you…” Dawson continues: “… there is one item on the debit side for which there is no credit given on the other – namely that part of Mr. Verner’s evidence where he says a great crowd followed to the office hoping and hooting – this however I am sure many of you can balance in your own minds by matter fact as it must be known to many of you that no such circumstance took place but that the indignation of the people was expressed by silent astonishment at seeing a respectable useful and inoffensive inhabitant dragged like a felon to the Black hole. You must be sensible from the evidence of those respectable and worthy men who were called on the defence that the most simple assault was not intended – that no disrespect was meant to the judges of the Land and that so far from Dr. Tennet setting himself in opposition to the constitution of his country he was endevouring by Constitutional means to prevent the recurrence of murder in our streets – Who can be considered the best friend to the constitution of his country the man who would abet a lawless Banditti in murder in raiping and House burning or the man who would by every legal means endeavour to put a stop to such scenes – the question answers itself – “the notorious Verner and “the lamb of grace” aided by the infamous bench who presided at Antrim sessions are the real enemies of the Constitution and not the peaceable inhabitants of Belfast who wished to put an end to such disgraceful scenes as those of 12 July 1813. Fellow Christians only think of the miserable situation you are reduced to – on the one hand a chief Magistrate whose youthful days have been passed in the raiping burning and murder of the unfortunate Catholics of Armagh and who is now come to spend his more mature years in promoting the same system in Belfast – and who has added perjury to the other list of crimes of which he has been … guilty – and on the other a Pastor who from infancy has been innured to all the crimes committed in an infamous gaming house – who was begotten in adultery and nurtured in villainy – who has long since robbed the gallows of its dues – and whose ears for this last act of his richly deserves to be nailed to the Pillory – How can you without horror view these men in their respective situations in the church – how can you without abhorrence view such a man as Verner in the seat of justice with all his emblems about him – or how can you look upon him without picturing in your imagination the flames of the cabin and the shrieks of women and children – and lastly what you must thin unknown books
192610275Los Angeles California: Vincent Printing Co 1926. 9 x 6" purple leatherette binding with grey lettering and illustration 250 2 pp one color plate many photo illustrations within text. Title in English translates to "Through Sacred Lands and Through Profane Lands Impressions of a Guatemalan on His Journey Around the World During the Years 1922 to 1924." A travel narrative by a Guatemalan-American published in Los Angeles. The author Jose Moises Deleon Letona arrived in California in 1925 lived in Los Angeles and worked as an accountant according to his 1927 naturalization document. He was a member of the Science League of America the American Insurance Union and the Hispanic-American Alliance. The first three chapters cover Letona's journey from Guatemala to New Orleans his travels through the American northeast a visit to Niagara Falls and his border crossing into Canada. The rest of the book covers his travels throughout Europe to the Holy Land and to Egypt. Throughout Letona provides his impressions of the societies he visits listing statistics describing social norms and family structures and providing comparisons to his native Guatemala. A chapter towards the end is dedicated to comparisons of the various countries he visited. Letona wrote for a Central American audience in order to expose his countrymen to the wider world and inspire within them dreams of travel. Letona writes in his introduction that "If all my countrymen who leave their native land and return to their homes put their own impressions on the pages of a book.it would not only give the sensation of things outside but would also be a stimulus to induce the Central American to be less shy and seek in the lives of other peoples means that adapt to his own life." He adds in his conclusion that "One of the objectives of this book is to awaken in you the idea of traveling. You the parents who have resources send your sons and daughters to study to work abroad." The book is infused with patriotic sentiment for Guatemala and includes a poetic ode to the country as well as a color plate depicting the national bird the Quetzal.

Remarkable illustrated account of the author's journey to the Holy Land with descriptions of ancient and modern Jewish culture in France Malta Tunisia Constantinople Lebanon Syria and Palestine; Moses Margoliouth was a learned and respected minister in the Church of England of the nineteenth century. As his name might indicate he was also of Jewish extraction. Born in Suwalki Poland in 1818 he arrived in England in 1837 and converted to the Christian faith the following year. This work exemplifies the growing English interest in the biblical Land of Israel during the 19th century and growing identification with the Nation of Israel leading in this case to increased missionary activity but also to a support of Zionism.

197011107New York: McGraw-Hill 1970. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Octavo 952pp. illustrated. A crisp clean copy near fine in the publisher's navy leather stamped in gilt with red leather spine label. Very gentle foxing to edges and a touch of rubbing to extremities but a nice example. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Moses on the half-title page: "To Betty and Vince from Bob Moses." There are a few faint foxing marks to the signature page. This is one of an unidentified but certainly small number of presentation copies specially bound by the publisher for Moses to give to friends and colleagues.
