French caricaturist and lithographer published his first book Monsieur Lajeunesse in 1839 and from 1843 began to be regularly published in illustrated magazines such as Le Charivari which in 1835 focused primarily on publishing satires of everyday life thereafter becoming one of the most popular of French caricaturists through entertaining storybooks such as this work which satirized 'jokes in poor taste.'<br /> <br /> Several artists "followed in the wake of Daumier and Gavarni. Among the most attractive of the former is Amédéé de Noé "known as Cham that is Ham the son of Noah.it was said that he had 'an idea a day' for Le charivari. A good proportion of his thousands of lithographs were gathered into albums. His contributions to the Album du siège 173 in which Daumier was his collaborator are typical of his work" Ray pp. 155-156.<br /> <br /> Cham had contacts with English artists many of whom had trained on the Continent most in company with English artist and follower of the pioneering German lithographer Alois Senefelder.

The following year in 1807 Webster began two consecutive decades of intensive work to expand his publication into a fully comprehensive dictionary An American Dictionary of the English Language. To help trace the etymology of words Webster learned 26 languages. Webster hoped to standardize American speech since Americans in different parts of the United States used somewhat different vocabularies and spelled pronounced and used words differently.</p> <br /> <p>In 1825 while spending a year abroad at the University of Cambridge and then in Paris Webster completed this dictionary which featured 70000 words about 12000 of which had never before appeared in a dictionary. A spelling reformer Webster believed that English spelling rules were unnecessarily complex and used the dictionary to introduce American English spellings replacing colour with color waggon with wagon and centre with center. He also added American words including skunk and squash that did not appear in British dictionaries. Three years later at age of 70 in 1828 Webster published the dictionary. In 1843 following Webster's death George Merriam and Charles Merriam secured publishing and revision rights to Webster's 1840 dictionary. </p> . George and Charles Merriam unknown

1796000618NEW YORK. Fair with no dust jacket. 1796. Non-Book. On offer is a post-revolutionary 1796 operational ledger sheet of the prominent Dutchess County Amenia New York family of Captain Noah Wheeler. The ledger sheet details exactly how a post-Revolutionary farm family managed their wheat their assets debts and the passing of the torch from a veteran father to his adolescent sons. This ledger sheet was kept by Captain Noah Wheeler 1743-1823 and two of his sons. Capt. Wheeler was a descendant of the prominent Wheeler family of New York State. He was a member of the 6th Regiment Charlotte Precinct Dutchess County Militia. Detailed BIO NOTES can be found at the end of this listing. In 1796 Capt. Wheeler then in his early 50s was working in wheat production alongside his 15- and 18-year-old sons Thomas Newcomb 1773-1844 and Anthony 1771-1840. In autumn of that year they were producing wheat and kept this balance sheet to track details of their sowing and production external sales internal consumption financial balances and debts. The sheet also includes details such as who purchased the wheat what is owed to each of the three Wheelers or how much they owed. On the verso is written Account of Wheat in 1796 of Noah Wheeler Anthony & Thomas N his sons. The title is written in the same hand as that of the balance sheet itself. This document provides surprisingly deep insight into the daily lives of the patriarch and young men of a rural pioneering American family and gives a glimpse into the work a father did to prepare his sons to take over the family business as they became men. Condition: Large ledger sheet measuring approximately 13.5x7.75. It has been folded and there is age toning some light stains and splitting along fold lines consistent with its age and use. It is entirely legible and written in ink. Overall Fair. BIO NOTES: Noah Wheeler was born in Connecticut to Captain Thomas Wheeler 1715-1754 and Eunice Gates 1718-1787.
