Noah was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. The present account is based on his experiences while in that office in addition to his travels in Europe. Noah was notable as one of the first American Jews to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons. This volume prints letters of support from Jefferson Madison and John Adams. The Jefferson letter is particularly famous for its support for fairness to Jewish citizens. SMITH N17. ROSENBACH 205.

First edition 8vo pp. vi 2 431 1 xlvii; engraved frontis portrait and 4 engraved plates 3 with contemporary hand-coloring and 1 folding; contemporary full sheep red morocco label on gilt-paneled spine; spine scuffed and with a small chip out at the top minor foxing; all else good and sound with the full compliment of plates in an unusual colored state. Early ownership signature of "Richard L. Schieffelin New York 1819." Noah 1785-1851 was a lawyer playwright and journalist. He was born in Philadelphia of Portuguese-Jewish ancestry. "In 1813 he was appointed consul to Tunis with a special mission to Algers. He was instructed to negotiate for the release of some Americans held as prisoners by the Algerine pirates. On May 23 1813 he sailed from Charleston but his vessel being captured by the British he was taken to England and detained two months. In October he arrived in Cadiz where he contracted with Richard R. Keene an American who had become a Spanish subject to affect the release of the twelve Americans . After being detained in France and Spain for more than a year Noah finally arrived in Tunis. On July 30 1815 he received a letter from James Monroe secretary of state revoking his commission and hinting at irregularities in his accounts. Monroe's treatment of Noah was never satisfactorily explained though his association with Keene who had been accused of treason was doubtless detrimental.In January 1817 however Noah received a letter from the Department of State which vindicated his conduct and returned several thousand dollars due him in the enterprise which resulted in the release of the American captives" DAB.

Octavo contemporary marbled boards rebacked in period style speckled calf-gilt red morocco spine label uncut. $3400.First edition of this fascinating travelogue by Mordecai Manuel Noah the most prominent Jew in America at the timeU.S. Consul to Tunis the first American Jew to receive an overseas diplomatic assignmentillustrated with engraved frontispiece portrait and four engraved plates one folding. An excellent uncut copy in contemporary marbled boards.One of the early American republic's most influential Jews Mordecai Noah 1785-1851 was a journalist editor of New York newspaper The National Advocate publisher of the New York Enquirer and a community activist. He held the position of United States Consul to Tunis in 1816 was the sheriff of New York in 1821 the Surveyor of the Port from 1829-33 and a judge of the Court of General Sessions in 1841. He is perhaps most remembered as the originator of the ambitious though never-realized Ararat Project on Grand Island near Niagara Falls in 1825a proposed utopian city of refuge for persecuted European Jews. ""In 1813 Noah became U.S. Consul to Tunis. The government hoped that he would be able to forge special ties with influential Jews in North Africa and entrusted him with an additional secret mission: to devise a 'means for the liberation' of 11 captive American seamen in Algiers. Noah's efforts to free American captives were mostly unsuccessful. Only two seamen were released the ransom paid was excessive and the secret agent Noah appointed Richard R. Keene turned out to have an unsavory past. Although Noah carried out his other consular duties successfully and also established ties with local Tunis Jews Secretary of State James Monroe recalled him in 1815 In the wake of the recall Noah published Correspondence and Documents 1816 in his own defense followed by Travels in England France Spain and the Barbary States 1819 his most important book. It describes his experiences abroad and contains valuable information on early 19th-century Tunisian Jewry"" ANB.
