Pages are clean and intact overall except for faint spots of foxing or discoloration, chipping and splitting along spine, a shallow vertical crease at center, and a purple "Mercantile Library, Philadelphia" stamp on front. A Very Good copy. This is a printed letter by John S. Gittings in which he defends his actions and reputation amid complaints leveled against him in connection with his execution of a Chesapeake & Ohio Canal Company trust fund. Some of the accusations made against Gittings are that he failed to make as much of the bonds as he had promised, that he was allowed too high of a commission, that he used funds for unauthorized purposes, and that he had not paid over his balance in his hands. First, Gittings argues that his management of bonds yielded higher sales than those of his co-trustees Messrs. Gunton and Swan. He also defends his commission rate arguing that the profitability resulting from his financial management justified that rate. He also denies that any misappropriation of funds. Lastly, Gittings defends his refusal to hand over his balance due him not being legally exonerated from responsibility for the litigating parties.…

Hardcover. Etat : Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. A clean and tight copy of the second volume of this two-volume set. It is bound in brown library buckram, and is in sound condition for its age. It did not circulate, and library markings are minimal. The paper is foxed in spots, and water stains are present, long since dried out. Readability is not affected, and the rag paper is of excellent durability. I suspect the two volumes are not history in chronological order, because this volume starts with Lord Baltimore's son Cecilius Calvert and the founding of the colony in 1632 (although the action doesn't get going until the next year, which I suppose helps explain the title) . This looks like quite an action-packed story. Fast shipping, with tracking number provided. ; Ex-Library; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.…

Previously owned by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Abraham Rees (1743-1825) was a British clergyman best known for this, his outstanding encyclopedic work, The Cyclopaedia. (Initially published 1802-1820 in parts in Great Britain.) Rees' work not only featured theological and humanistic issues, but also extensive articles on mathematics and natural sciences. The Cyclopaedia, "is the richest work for technology of the period, with detailed text and handsome, carefully prepared plates." Ferguson, Eugene. "Contributions to Bibliography in the History of Technology (part II)". Technology and Culture 3.2 (1962): 169 p. "Rees was convinced that the important progress made during the last decades of the eighteenth century, especially in the fields of history, geography, geology, natural history, and the physical sciences senu lato, required a new type of encyclopedia with the accent on these fields as well as the still relatively undeveloped domains of biography and the history of sciences. The Cyclopaedia thus became one of the first works of its kind to be compiled with the help of 'persons eminently distinguished in these branches of science to which they had devoted their talents.'" (Taxon Vol. 35, No. 2 (1986), 452-453.) Some of the notable contributors to this work were Charles Bruney on music; Charles Koenig, Robert Bakewell, and John Farey on geology; John Dalton and Humphry Davy on chemistry; David Mushet on metallurgy; William Pearson on astronomy; James Edward Smith, William Wood, William Fitt Drake and William Woodville on botany. "Rees Cyclopaedia is one of the first works to interpret correctly William Smith's ideas on strata identification on the basis of fossil organisms." Ibid. The Cyclopaedia included other notable recent scientific breakthroughs, such as Robert Fulton's Cast Iron Aqueduct (described in his 1796 book) which would become his notable steam engine.
