Binding broken after titlepage institutional ink and blind stamp on titlepage. Minor foxing. Good. An important case relating to the robbery of the Bank of Pennsylvania in 1798. Robbers entered the bank in early September 1798 during one of the periodic outbreaks of Yellow Fever in Philadelphia. Because no evidence of forcible entry was detected suspicion immediately fell on blacksmith Patrick Lyon a British mechanic who had fashioned various iron fittings for the bank building including the locks. He claimed to have been out of town with his son to avoid the fever when the robbery took place but he was nonetheless arrested and imprisoned. The case was a city sensation and the press took up Lyon's cause which eventually led to his being freed. <br> <br> This work reports the trial of the president of the bank a cashier one of the bank directors who was also an alderman of Philadelphia and a high constable who were all sued for damages by Lyon on the charge of false imprisonment. The officers of the bank were sentenced to pay Patrick Lyon $12000 for false and malicious prosecution without reasonable cause. Described as "Very Scarce" in the Brinley catalog.

Lyon asserts the wolf is at fault. He also blames the wolf for the rampant spread of infectious diseases among livestock populations and the decimation of wild deer moose sheep and domestic animals alike. A trial lawyer with over 37 years of litigation experience Lyon proves his case in The Real Wolf: The Science Politics and Economics of Co-Existing with Wolves in Modern Times. In this detailed yet easy-to-read essay collection authors Ted B. Lyon and Will N. Graves investigate the majesty and myths surrounding wolves in the United States and offer a new true picture of the wolf in contemporary America. The Real Wolf is an in-depth study of the impact wolves as a federally protected species have had on big game and livestock populations. Each chapter in the book is meticulously researched and written by authors and scientists who have spent years studying wolves and wolf behavior. Contributing authors Rob Arnaud Dr. Arthur Bergerud Karen Budd-Falen Jess Carey Dr. Matthew A. Cronin Dr. Valerius Geist Don Peay Laura Schneberger Heather Smith-Thomas and Cat Urbigkit each describe a unique aspect of the wolf in the United States.
