Description:
1956. 1 vols. Fine. 1 vols. Sidney Hook is arguably the most controversial figure in the tradition of American philosophy. Coming to prominence in the late 1920s as both the star pupil of John Dewey and an eminent Marx scholar, Hook devoted his early career to political action which placed him firmly among the fellow travelers of the Communist Party. Hook's political disposition began shifting towards the Right just prior to World War II. Around 1940, Hook adopted a vehement anti-Communism which led him to defend the reactionary political views for which he is now notorious. The coup d'grace of Hook's career for those who would demonize him as the quintessential turncoat came in 1985 when he was awarded the Medal of Freedom by President Reagan.

Description:
London: Charles Bill, Executrix of Thomas Newcomb, 1702. 453-454 pp. 4to. Contemporary blind-stamped paneled calf, manuscript spine label. 453-454 pp. 4to. "To the end that sufficient maintenance be provided and allowed for the children of Jewish parents, who shall turn Protestants ..." The law was enacted in response to the case of Jacob de Mendez Berta, who refused to support his 18-year-old daughter Mary after her conversion. The testimony of Mary and her Protestant supporters is recorded in the Journals of the House of Commons, after which it was resolved that a bill (i.e. the present Act) be written to address her case. The law remained in effect until the middle of the 19th century, though it was enacted expressly for Mary de Mendez Berta's benefit and does not seem to have been enforced thereafter. In bound collection of Acts from the reigns of William III (years 13 & 14) and Queen Anne (years 1-5).

Bound in full light bown pigskin, with metallic plaque of the Seal of the United States inset into the upper cover, now with a fine patina, pigskin doublures and silk endpapers. Fine. In quarter leather and marbled boards pull off slipcase. First edition, one of 75 (but probably one of only 7 in this binding). 97, [3] pp. 1 vols. 4to. Inscribed to Morgenthau in the Deluxe Binding. A sumptously produced White House Christmas book, commemorating FDR's nearly month-long diplomatic mission to promote "hemispheric solidarity" with South America. The book was issued in an uncertain, though undoubtedly strictly limited, number, with two issues--in full pigskin, as seen here, and half pigskin and marbled boards. The colophon calls for 75 copies, with the more desirable full pigskin binding scheduled to run to 50 copies for distribution to South American…

Bayley published "editions and issues of Tans'ur's The Royal Melody Complete, Williams's Universal Psalmodist and Tansur-Williams-Bayley's The American Harmony that appeared in New England between 1767 and 1774, thereby creating a major bibliographic tangle. Because some of the same engraved plates were used for every issue of the three related works, the three must be described together.
