1940B352London: Faber and Faber 1940. First. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Strangers and Brothers is the first volume of what became C.P. Snows 11 novel series of the same name. Published in the early days of WWII it is by far the scarcest volume in the series and dust jackets are extremely scarce. Paper was in very short supply during the war and thus jackets may have only been printed as books sold. One can see from the photos that the publisher resorted to printing the dust jackets for this title on the reverse of leftover dust jackets from other titles in this case a jacket from Perkin the Pedlar by Eleanor Farjeon. The publisher's list of available titles on the back of the jacket includes books not published until 1943 and thus is not an original 1940 jacket but any jacket of the war period is scarce nonetheless.<br /> This copy is near fine in green cloth with red titles on the spine. Slight scuffing at the corners and bumping at the spine ends are the only issues. No other marks or damage at all. The clipped dust jacket has minor soiling and some chipping and small tears at the edges but is overall very good and is still quite bright. FO. Faber and Faber hardcover

185267084Liverpool: F.D. Richards 1852. Pamphlet. Very Good. 24pp. Octavo 22 cm; unsewn pamphlet. 'Dr. Richards' written in contemporary ink at the upper right corner on the cover. Minor smudging and bumping along the margins and edges a couple of small pinholes at left margin and some light staining and foxing throughout; still in very good condition. This is the first state of this work with the word "are" printed as the first word in the last paragraph of page iv. We located eight institutional holdings at the time of cataloguing. Uncommon. According to Crawley "the pamphlet opens with an exchange of correspondence between Willard Richards and Zerubbabel Snow an associate justice of Utah Territory with Snow's opinion that Brigham Young proceeded properly in taking the census and organizing the territorial legislature prior to the arrival of the territorial appointees - all reprinted from the Deseret News of November 29 1851. Next are the plea of George A. Smith in defense of Howard Egan at Egan's trial before Snow for the murder of James Monroe and Snow's charge to the jury. These are followed by the text of the act of organizing Utah Territory and the names of the territorial officers appointed by Millard Fillmore September 28 1850.<br /> <br /> The preface signed by Franklin D. Richards and dated March 12 1852 opens with the declaration: "The following compilation may be considered a complete refutation of the charges contained in the Report of the returned Judges for Utah against His Excellency Governor Brigham Young and the citizens of that Territory" - a reference to the tract 'Polygamy Revived in the West' which Lowe had used in his lecture. And in the next-to-last paragraph: "The Organic Act is also introduced that all who wish may know the foundation upon which the organization and government of the Territory of Utah rests.'"
