16670625R1APrinted by the Assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker In the Savoy London: . 1667 Further details - Bound with: The New Testament - In the Savoy London: Printed by the Assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker 1667 - Bound with: The Whole Book of Psalms: Collected into English Metre by Thomas Sternhold John Hopkins and others. Cambridge: Printed by John Field 1662. Ca. 500 p. Double column text ruled in red throughout. All edges gilt. Small 8vo. 170 x 120 mm. Very good. Contemporary full dark goat skin leather blind tooled English full somber binding. Early marbled endpapers. A very good example of a sombre binding ca. 1667. The covers are blind tooled in a handsome frame and panel design that includes small acorns stars flowers and vines. The same elements appear on the spine compartments between five raised bands. The richness of the tooling on the binding is effectively disguised by this `black on black' work. Some scholars say that these were most popular in Puritan London where ostentation was frowned upon. But most of these sombre bindings appear after the restoration of King Charles II and reflect the royal court's encouragement of public and private displays of mourning for the beheading of his father King Charles I. Their use on liturgical books also accelerates after the Great Plague of 1665; and disastrous London Fire a year later. The timing of its use on this particular example certainly illustrates those influences. References: Wing 2nd ed.

His Father was the Rector of this Living some years since and he himself has performed the Duty as Curate for the last 20 years to the greatest satisfaction of the Parishioners. During this time he has been an active Magistrate of the West Riding of the County of York.' A change in Bowes's circumstances has 'made this Living a very great and important Object to him independely of the Value which he sets upon it from his long and early association with it'.

185553636Peoria: printed by Benjamin Foster 1855. First edition 8vo pp. iv 5-72; some foxing on the early leaves else fine in original printed salmon wrappers. "Root was a former common-school teacher who moved to Peoria County from Ohio in the fall of 1830. He apparently became a farmer after moving to Illinois" Byrd. An eccentric populist attack against big banks and the American legal system from an aging Peoria county farmer who notes that for "more than fifty years I have seen that there was some thing radically wrong in the political and religious world . I exerted myself for more than half a century politically and religiously for the sole purpose of heading and stopping those evils but all to no effect. The public journals both religious and political would not publish my communications because they were Truth." He was apparently a member of the National Reform Association an organization bent on re-Christianizing American society. He puts forth a libertarian philosophy saying that the greatest evils are: first and foremost Land Monopoly; Chattel Slavery; Alcohol; and Monopoly of the Law.
