1846370888Boston: Published by All the Booksellers 1846. 48pp. Pencil annotations. 8vo. Publisher's wrappers soiled minor wear. 48pp. Pencil annotations. 8vo. The description offered in catalogue 590 by the venerable Goodspeed's who knew a thing or two about Boston Brahmin simply cannot be improved: "Vexatious to some but amusing to others because of the biographical comments. A mayor of Boston is called "a 'desperate punster'" and a famous Boston historian is described as "'a showy boy at school and college" and "a pushing man with industry and memory enough to be a good scholar but with great talents for making himself ridiculous.'" The anonymous author or authors "'hold it to be the inalienable right of all Yankees to inquire into and to thoroughly sift and examine their neighbor's affairs."'"<br /> <br /> The early pencil annotations in this example correct some information add a few names of descendents and record deaths.
