183321417Edinburgh and London: William Blackwood and T. Cadell 1833. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. 8vo 138 pp vi publisher's ads. Bound in what is likely the original binding of paper-covered boards with cloth spine and paper spine label. Cloth partially split along rear joint mild spine slant evidence of removal of bookplates on pastedowns. Occasional foxing but overall quite clean. A supplement to Dunlop's earlier work Parochial Law. According to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Dunlop "was a firm supporter of the party later known as the non-intrusionists which wished to limit the power of patrons to appoint ministers to Church of Scotland parishes. In 1830 Dunlop was elected to the general assembly of the Church of Scotland.Dunlop thus arrived on the national stage just as the evangelical party was moving to a position of dominance in the church. He became an active member of various church societies including the Church Law Society and the Anti-Patronage Society and by 1834 he was editor of the Presbyterian Review the journal of the evangelicals and non-intrusionists.He was to play a leading role in most of the controversies in the 'ten years' conflict' which resulted in the Disruption of the Church of Scotland in 1843. He acted as counsel for the non-intrusionists and the presbytery of Auchterarder in what became a test case heard in 1838 and 1839 on the legality of the Veto Act. By this measure the non-intrusionists had sought to restrict the power of patrons to present nominees to vacant parishes by making it conditional on a measure of popular assent.

Quarto blue cloth hardcover 96 pp. Very Good with wear to full-color photo. illus. paper label of upper cover residue from bookplate to ffep. blacked out former-owner stamp on title. From Introduction: Between the 20th of July and 17th of August 1986 the Miami Herald published a series of nine essays by its Pulitzer Prize nominee Beth Dunlop on the vanishing architecture of Florida. The essays carry the reader from Apalachicola to Key West from De Funiak Springs to Sarasota. They tell the tale of a Florida that in building its future is losing its past. It is a story of history being trampled disfigured and disguised. It is a sentimental journey that takes us to pioneer days to a less troubled past. It is a tale of naive tourism of grand and elegant hotels filled with fantasy. Contents: Introduction by Jose Gelabert-Navia; The Price of Progress; From Fishing Villages to Tourist Traps; Apalachicola -- Florida’s Living Museum; Roadside Architecture -- Last Relics of Early Tourism; The Grand Old Hotels -- Fading Fantasies; Homes of the Famous -- Who Owns History; Cross Creek -- A Survivor Amide the Subdivisions; Historical Sideshows; Languishing Landmarks; Four ARchitects -- Legacies Misunderstood; “Real Florida†Beware; Update; Index.
