Description:
London, Printed for Nicholas Bourne, at the South Enrance of the Royal Echange; and Richard Royston, n Ivie-Lane. 1645. Small 4to, 182 x 142 mms., pp. [20], 191 [192 blank], including engraved title-page (differently phrased), bound in 19th century half brown morocco, marbled boards, gilt spine, morocco label; front joint rubbed and slightly worn, but a good copy. The Church of England clergyman Daniel Featley (1582 - 1645) seems unable to have noticed a disputation without wishing to take part in it. This work was published in the year of his death, with seven variations in the register and composition; and it was written while he was imprisoned in Lord Petre's house in Aldersgate Street. The Dippers dipt was his final work, and the very good article in ONDB describes it as the best of his prison writings: it "based on notes taken in October 1642 at a disputation with the Baptist minister William Kiffin in Southwark, but greatly expanded to form a polemical history of the Anabaptist…

Description:
London, Printed for the Author, by A. Wilson...and sold by G. and J. Robinson...and T. Cadell and W. Davies..., 1804. Large 8vo, 225 x 140 mms., pp. xxxii, 283 [284 - 286 adverts], engraved portrait (by Heath after Barry), original boards, uncut; front cover detached, rear cover holding on for dear life, most of paper missing from spine. Walker (1731 - 1803) started his career as an actor, working for David Garrick, but turned to teaching in 1769, and started his own school of elocution in 1771. His orthoepic work was so influential that by the end of the 19th century, few educated people would have wanted to pronounce their words in any way other than that sanction by Walker. The first edition of this work was published in 1798 and this second edition, published posthumously, is considerably revised and expanded.

Description:
London: Printed for thE Author, at Tully's Head..., 1737. FIRST EDITION. 8vo (in 4s), 188 x 115 mms., pp. [3 - 9] 10 -51 [52 adverts], including half-title, recent boards, green cloth spine, with title in gilt on green background on front cover. A fine copy for a modern binding. Theophilus Cibber produced the first performance of Dodsley's play in 1737, and it was immediately successful. The story is not uncommon: a royal person loses his way and meets someone who doesn't recognize the identity of his social superior. In the 19th century, Mark Twain used this conceit, or meme, for his novel, The Prince and the Pauper (1881). In a useful note published almost a hundred years ago, Olav K. Lundeberg comments, "Dodsley was content to follow the ballea narrative for his main motif, but he added a secondary theme, the love story, to make the material more acceptable in dramatized form.3 This love-story, not found in the ballad, occurs almost in identical form in Painter's Palace…

Description:
Edinburgh and London William Blackwood, 1832. FIRST EDITION. 8vo, 176 x 105 mms., pp. 305 [306 blank, 307 - 308 adverts], including half-title, edges uncut, early 20th century binding of half chocolate morocco, linen boards, title and author in gilt on spine; rear hinge a little opened at adverts leaf, but a very good copy, with the autograph "Archibald Megget, M D/ 1835" on the title-page. This was De Quincey's only original novel, and a Gothic novel at that. Coleridge asserted that "in purity of style and idiom it reaches an excellence to which Sir Walter Scott seems never to have aspired." Henry Crabb Robinson in 1836 took a rather more jaundiced view: "the book made no noise perhaps because of its lumbering style and forming one small volume only..." ; and in 1845 George Gilfillan asserted that it was "a complete failure." His daughter Margaret said of the work, "He simply lived in the romances of his youth. He cared nothing for…

Description:
Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada Published by The Whitehorse Star Ltd [no date] [1974]. Small 12mo, 140 x 108 mms., pp. [12], printed on stiff orange paper, stapled at folds, with illustration on front cover and on recto of first leaf after title-page. A fine copy. According to the Alaskan State Library catalogue, this is a dictionary of the language "Kuchin Athapaskan." The language is also known as the "Gwich'in language", and has gone under other names as well, including of course "Kutchin" (the name used on the title page of this book), a variant of the spelling "Kuchin." Wikipedia says, "Few Gwich'in speak their indigenous Gwich'in language, which is in the Athabaskan language family. There are two main dialects of Gwich'in, eastern and western, which are delineated roughly at the United States-Canadian border. Each village has unique dialect differences, idioms, and expressions. The Old Crow people in the northern Yukon have…
