Ajouter au panierSoftcover. 8vo (9" x 5.75"), original printed tan wrappers, 117, [blank], [1] pp. In custom gray buckram clamshell box with black leather title label at spine. CONDITION: Good, wrappers expertly reattached with Japanese tissue, repaired tear at head of front wrapper and reinstated losses to corners, dampstain to lower third of t…itle page, carrying through to a diminishing degree through a few subsequent leaves. An important account of the New York City draft riots and the efforts by the Metropolitan Police to quell them, including a precinct-by-precinct description of the riots, and praising numerous bureaus and individuals of the Police Department. "One of the first studies to appear on the riots"-Nevins. Dedicated to the Metropolitan Police of New York City, this work offers an historical record of "the excellence of the organization, of its fidelity, bravery, and efficiency." Barnes notes that while the riots were "ostensibly in opposition to" the draft, they nevertheless "early [on] took the character of an outbreak for the purposes of pillage, and also of outrage upon the colored population." He estimates the damage caused at 1.2 million dollars and the number of people killed by the police and military at 400 or 500. He also identifies eighteen people killed by the rioters, eleven of whom were people of color, including a Native American man. Had it not been for the police and the assistance of the military, Barnes argues, the scale of destruction would have been far greater. An account of the riot is given through descriptions of the operations and work of a number of police officials and departments in response to the riots. All are praised for how they handled the riots, including Commissioner Thomas C. Acton, Superintendent John A. Kennedy, Inspector James Leonard, the Detective Force, and The Sanitary Police. Barnes notes that the Detective Force was "occupied in giving information to the negroes in quarters threatened by the mob, and directing them where to find safety." The appendix covers the murder of Col. O'Brien; the circumstances surrounding the deaths of the eleven people of color; the death of a white woman who was the wife of a Black man; and the burning of a Black orphan asylum. An important account of the New York City Draft Riots from the perspective of the Metropolitan Police of New York City. REFERENCES: Sabin 3513; II Nevins 120; Blockson 2741.

Ajouter au panierSoftcover. Etat : Very Good. The earliest publication of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address in book form, preceded only by the exceptionally scarce 16-page pamphlet, *The Gettysburg Solemnities*. Octavo. Stitched in the original printed wrapper, with a publisher's advertisement on the rear wrap. pp. [1-3] 4-48. Modest overall toning a…nd rubbing to the wrapper, some fraying at the corners, part of the paper along the spine back is perished, one vertical stain at the front wrap and title page, a very good copy with a few scattered contemporary brown ink markings. Very light contemporary ownership name in pencil at the top of the front wrap. Housed in a fine quarter blue morocco slipcase with gilt spine lettering and two raised bands, and with an internal cloth chemise. "Collection of Foreman M. Lebold" stamped in gold on the front cover of the slipcase. Foreman M. Lebold was a noted collector of Lincoln material, and the eldest brother of Nathan Leopold, one of the infamous Leopold and Loeb teenage thrill killers convicted of the murder of Bobby Franks which captured the attention of the nation. Foreman, like much of his family, eventually changed his last name to Lebold because of the notoriety of the trial. Lincoln delivered his speech at the dedication ceremony of the Gettysburg National Cemetery on November 19, 1863, about four months after the pivotal battle that turned the tide of the Civil War in favor of the Union. His speech was preceded by an Oration by Edward Everett, the most famous orator of the day. Everett's oration, printed here in full, took about two hours to deliver and is now largely forgotten. Lincoln's address was delivered in only a few minutes, and is now celebrated as the supreme distillation of American values, and testament to the sacrifices necessary to achieve freedom for all Americans. It is printed on page 40 of this booklet under the title: "The dedicatory remarks were then delivered by the President, as follows: / President Lincoln's Speech. / Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation " A well-preserved copy in the original wrappers. *Sabin* 23263; *Printing and the Mind of Man* 351.

Ajouter au panier48 pp. Lacking the printed paper cover. Small ink stain affecting some text. Mayberry was a Mormon who was at Nauvoo when Smith was assassinated. Mayberry's family and wife went on to Salt Lake City, but he stayed behind, leading a life of crime, which ended in the murder of Alger. Although Wisconsin had eliminated the death pen…alty, a mob hung him. While in jail, he told a relative about several murders he committed over the years. If these cases are true, he would replace Holmes, becoming the U.S.'s first serial killer. See McDade 674.
