1903443j2092London: C.W. Daniel. Fair with no dust jacket. 1903. First British Edition. Hardcover. "It is a deplorable fact and one to which is accountable the continuance of a system which has been a failure many times during the last century that not one person in ten thousand has any really intelligent idea of the science of money - a subject which is usually treated as one of profound mystery and which only a banker is capable of understanding. To one not blinded by custom and prejudice the money question is quite comprehensible. But because of the prevalence of false and contradictory theories students find the subject hopelessly involved in ambiguities and intricacies. It is with the hope that it my evoke a spirit of inquiry leading to a clearer understanding of this most important subject that this work is published." - Preface to the British Edition. First published in the U.S. in 1894. xxvi 231 p. "Arthur Kitson 1859-1937 was a British monetary theorist and inventor. He formed the Economic Freedom League with Frederick Soddy and was active in this venture through the 1920s. He became convinced Jewish bankers were the cause of his bankruptcy and most of the world's miseries. He sent Ezra Pound a copy of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion even before Pound changed from a money radical to a notorious anti-Semite. By the time of his death Arthur Kitson was the second most influential fascist in Britain the first being Oswald Mosley. In his late years he was brought to Germany to consult with Nazi Party economists." - Wikipedia. Binding intact. Prior owner's name inside front board.

181899422Liverpool June 16 1818. 1818. Fine. - Original vellum document consisting of 2 attached sheets with scalloped top edges. An indenture 24 inches high by 30 inches wide and the assigns 22 inches high by 30 inches wide as usual folded down to 9 inches by 10-1/2 inches. 84 lines of text handsomely calligraphed over the two sheets. Within the initial "T" is the British emblem encircled by the words: "Honi soit qui mal y pense" a motto of the British chivalric Order of the Garter which translated means "Shamed be whoever thinks ill of it". The document has 2 George III embossed revenue stamps with a metal band one for three pounds and the other for one pound. There are also 2 Royal Cyphers.<p>On the rear fold of the document is a sketch of property showing several divisions including "Embleton Street 12 yards wide Dr Solomons land & Cottage". Upper Stanhope Street "20 yards wide" is on the south and Hayton Street "6 yards wide" is on the north. To the west of Solomon's land is land of Bland and another party. Further to the west is a 12 yard plot of land sold to Rowland Owen and "Release dated 23rd & 24th December 1818". This parcel appears to have the signature of Sefton over its description. Another entry on the indenture dated August 11th & 12th 1820 conveys property to Robert Rawlinson and Thomas Hesketh by the trustees of the will of Samuel Solomon. The conveyance is signed by two of Solomon's sons Abraham an oculist in Birmingham and John an amateur boxer and non-practicing lawyer. It is also signed by Ebenezer Daniell the manager of Solomon's Cordial Balm firm. Further in 1828 there is notice of "59 yards including half of Hayton Street" being conveyed to James Watts of Toxteth Park. It was later conveyed to a M J Hicks in October 1832. Both of these later conveyances are accompanied by minimal sketches. <p>The document is signed by the Earl of Sefton a party of the first part Peter Still and Alexander Strong of Lincoln's Inn parties of the second part Joseph Dawson of Liverpool party of the third part John Henderson of Toxteth party of the fourth part John Clare of Liverpool party of the fifth part. The lessees are described as "Samuel Solomon of Gilead House near Liverpool Doctor of Physic" and his Trustees "John Bird of Liverpool aforesaid Architect" and "Thomas Murrow of Liverpool".<p>In addition to the June 16 indenture there are 3 others:<p>1 A 15 inch high by 24 inch wide indenture on parchment dated June 15 1818 and titled "The Earl of Sefton to Doctor Solomon & Trustee / Lease for a year". The trustee is identified as John Bird of Liverpool Architect and it is signed by Sefton.<p>2 A 16 inch high by 23-1/2 inch wide indenture on parchment dated June 15 1818 and titled "The Earl of Sefton to Doctor Solomon & Trustee / Lease for a year". The trustee is identified as John Bird of Liverpool Architect and it is signed by Sefton.<p>3 A 17 inch high by 23 inch wide indenture on parchment dated August 17 1818 and titled "Peter Brown to Dr. Solomon and Trustee / Lease for a year". The trustee is identified as John Bird of Liverpool Architect and it is signed by Peter Brown. The indentures are folded down to approximately 8-1/4 by 6 inches.<p>Each of these 3 indentures on parchment has a George III embossed revenue stamp of one pound fifteen shillings a royal cypher the stamp of James Walker of Bermondsey parchment dealer and the British emblem within the initial "t" encircled by the words: "Honi soit qui mal y pense".<p>The 3 indentures by the Earl of Sefton are of particular interest for this reason - parliamentary elections were being held from June 17 to July 18 1818 and being an Irish peer Sefton was eligible to run for a seat. Dr. Solomon who by this time had become quite wealthy was the chief organizer of the Earl's campaign. Solomon spared no expense on his behalf in Liverpool which was famous for lively electioneering. It was to no avail as Sefton lost his election to George Canning. It seems quite possible that these leases given their dates within 2 days of the campaign served as a kind of reward for Solomon's future efforts.<p>"Doctor" Samuel Solomon c. 1768 - May 21 1819 was born in Cork and moved to Dublin influenced by his uncle Isaac Solomon who worked as a druggist there. Around 1789 he and his uncle went into business in Liverpool's dockland area. In 1796 he began marketing his "Cordial Balm of Gilead" which he claimed would cure one of ulcers of the lung kidneys and liver sexual dysfunction hypochondria female complaints etc. His claim to have been a Doctor of Medicine is suspect. Solomon became very wealthy from the sales of his expensive tincture made from a mixture of brandy and turpentine flavored with herbs as well as from real estate investments.

1924163a4961London: Boswell Printing & Publishing Co. Ltd. Fair. 1924. First Edition. Hardcover. 419 pages. Index. Footnotes. Frontis portrait of Adam Weishaupt. "I have felt impelled to devote one more book to the Revolution as a whole by going this time further back into the past and attempting to trace its origins from the first century of the Christian era. For it is only by taking a general survey of the movement that it is possible to understand the causes of any particular phase of its existence. The French Revolution did not arise merely out of conditions or ideas peculiar to the eighteenth century nor the Bolshevist Revolution out of political and social conditions in Russia on the teaching of Karl Marx. Both these explosions were produced by forces which making use of popular suffering and discontent had long been gathering strength for an onslaught not only on Christianity but on all social and moral order." - Preface.

Wing P-2842B; ESTC R207754. ◆Text lightly washed and pressed but still crisp faint foxing to lower edge of title page otherwise a fine fresh copy in an unworn binding.<br/> <br/> Written by an opinionated English cleric this is an extraordinarily rare pamphlet proposing an unusual fund to support young 17th century scholars. According to DNB the scheme outlined in the present work was meant "to support the university studies of young men of promise seeking entry into the ministry." The plan "was approved by John Worthington and Anthony Tuckney and had the support also of John Arrowsmith DD Ralph Cudworth William Dillingham DD and Benjamin Whichcote. The fund raised about £900 and it appears that William Sherlock afterwards dean of St Paul's received assistance from this fund during his studies at Peterhouse Cambridge until 1660 when he graduated BA. Those entrusted with administering the fund sent Poole regular reports on students interviewed and the ratings they had received in philosophy logic and languages. The scheme was abandoned at the Restoration." Poole 1624 - 79 was the author of a number of controversialist pamphlets on subjects ranging from Unitarianism to preaching by lay persons before undertaking his major work: a synthesis of critical biblical commentaries "Synopsis criticorum aliorumque sacrae scripturae interpretum." This is one of his scarcest writings: ESTC lists seven copies two in North America while ABPC and RBH record just two copies at auction. s.n. Printed Anno Domini unknown

1935429j1675Gardenvale Quebec: The Garden City Press. Good with no dust jacket. 1935. Hardcover. "Ever since the English Bank Act of 1844 the creation issuance and the regulation of the circulation of the current medium of exchange have been in large measure delegated in blind faith and absolute confidence to bankers and financiers. The complete collapse of the economic structure under banker management proves that the private control of credit is fundamentally unsound. Necessity now compels all to recognize that the creation and issuance of the medium of exchange the monetization of public credit the circulation of the medium of exchange and the general supervision of the monetary system must be restored to government. We must drive the money changers out of the temples of government and put the spirit of Christ in charge." - Preface. Chapters include: The Spirit of Lincoln; Democracy or Money Power; Money is Economic Power; War and Usury; Signs of Emancipation; Lincoln The Practical Economist; Lincoln's Way Out; Lincoln and Roosevelt; The Prince of Crusaders. "Gerald Grattan McGeer 18881947 was a lawyer populist politician and monetary reform advocate in the Canadian province of British Columbia. He served as the 22nd Mayor of Vancouver a Member of the Legislative Assembly in BC Member of Parliament for the Liberal Party of Canada and in the Canadian Senate. In the early part of the Great Depression McGeer became a zealous student of economics and soon became obsessed with monetary reform as the answer to the economic crisis. He eventually came up with his own theories which he cobbled together from the work of John Maynard Keynes Abraham Lincoln and the Bible. On one occasion he hypothesized that international 'money power' was financing Communists activities in Vancouver. Another time he testified before the government that Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by international bankers opposed to the introduction of 'Greenbacks'. McGeer's lifelong mission was to attain a position where he could implement his reform ideas but his flamboyant aggressive and eccentric style and theories alienated the powerbrokers in his own party." - Wikipedia. 2 XIX 1 359 pp. Charts and tables.

Very Good Russian Original dark green cloth bdg. Oblong folio. (28 x 36 cm). Eight languages of the title on the colophon, the text is completely Russian. [6], [ii], 108 p., [36] maps in various sizes, some of folded: (62x47 cm, 52,5x45,5 cm, 49,5x27 cm [x3], 61x47 cm; other maps are 36x28 cm). Four unnumbered leaves with half-title and contents for each section. Two small millimetric cuttings on two text pages. Ex-owner's name is on the title page. Markings on the index. Otherwise a very good and clean copy. Rare complete and the first atlas including a fine collection of 36 attractive chromo-lithograph maps mostly with tissue papers of the Soviet Union, edited by the Central Executive Committee and Enukidze (1877-1937), who was a prominent Georgian "Old Bolshevik". One of 11000 copies. Being published only 10 years after the USSR was established, this is the earliest atlas of the country. It seems to have been published with a wider audience in mind, with a title page in various European languages. The borders of many areas -including not just administrative regions throughout the USSR, but also entire autonomous republics (especially in Central Asia)- were in a state of flux; as such, the borders in this Atlas (including the wax-paper overlays meant to update various maps with changes made between when they were drawn and when the Atlas was published) often don't look anything like the borders they were set at the end of the Soviet Union and have continued on to modern times. Since the boundaries were often ideologically- (sometimes ethnically-, less so economically-) motivated, this offers an interesting insight into the mindset of the administration that was making these changes.
