first edition, in 4° (cm 32x23), pp. XXXI, 2, 299, 3 b.; leg. edit. m/tela avana con tit. in oro al ds., e grande ill. applicata al piatto ant.; front. in rosso e nero. Continua dal frontespizio: "Containing, among Many Surprising and Curious Matters, the Unutterable Pondering of Walter The Doubter, The Disastrous Projects of William The Test, and the Chivalric Achievements of Peter the Headstrong - the Three Dutch Governors of New Amsterdam; Being the Only Authentic History of the Times that Ever Hath Been or Ever Will be Published", il tutto abbellito da 8 tavv. f.t. di Maxfield Parrish su carta pesante. L'origine di New York risale al 1626, quando l'olandese P. Minnewit acquistò dagli Indiani l'isola di Manhattan e vi fece costruire il forte Amsterdam, intorno a cui sorse il centro commerciale Nuova Amsterdam, che si popolò rapidamente di protestanti profughi da ogni parte dell'Europa e della Nuova Inghilterra. A causa del governo dispotico della Compagnia Olandese delle Indie Occidentali, quando la flotta inglese si presentò davanti alla città (1664) gli abitanti costrinsero il governatore P. Stuyvesant alla resa; questa divenne possedimento inglese, mentre in onore del duca di York assunse il nome attuale, insieme all'intero territorio della Nuova Olanda. Piccole sbucciature agli angoli, lieve gora all'angolo sup. esterno del piatto ant., e lievi sporadiche fior. ma ottimo, fresco e solido esemplare. 083-40

"Washington Irving, an author, biographer, historian, and diplomat, completed his first major work, a satire of contemporary local history and politics entitled A History of New-York from the Beginning of the World to the End of the Dutch Dynasty, by Diedrich Knickerbocker in 1809. Prior to its publication, Irving started a promotional hoax (not unlike some modern-day publicity stunts?) by placing fake missing persons advertisements in local newspapers asking for help in locating Diedrich Knickerbocker. As a continuation of the hoax, Irving also published a notice purported to be written by the proprietor of the hotel where Knickbocker was staying, in which he threatened to publish a manuscript 'left behind' by Knickerbocker if the hotel bill was not paid. From 'The Author?s Apology': The main object of my work, in fact, had a bearing wide from the sober aim of history, but one which, I trust, will meet with some indulgence from poetic minds. It was to embody the traditions of our city in an amusing form; to illustrate its local humors, customs and peculiarities; to clothe home scenes and places and familiar names with those imaginative and whimsical associations so seldom met with in our new country, but which live like charms and spells about the cities of the old world, binding the heart of the native inhabitant to his home."
