Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition, First Printing. 5 X 7 3/8 Inches. 403 PP. Signed and inscribed to fellow University of Michigan Alumnus and President of the Michigan Press Association Junius Beal. Beal served as a State Legislator in the Michigan House of Representatives during the 1905-1906 term. The book is accompanied by a rather lengthy and very personal letter (TLS) to Beal from Illinois Governor Richard Yates Jr. (letter is affixed to front pastedown). The letter is dated December 17, 1912, just days after Yates Jr. lost his 1912 third run for Governor of Illinois. ALL THREE MEN WERE GRADUATES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN. In part: "After a long, uniform, continuous and contemporaneous delay, utterly inexcusable, so far as I am able to ascertain from the evidence in the case, I am returning to you today under separate cover, the book which I borrosed from you, just before the late unpleasant election." & "A second statement is necessary; I not only have retained and detained this good book too long, but I have allowed myself to take an unwarranted and unwarrantable liberty with it; for I have defaced it, with pencil marks, in more than several places; just why I was so indelicate as to do this, I don't exactly know; the sudden illness of the Republican Party, which became visible to the nake eye on the late 5th of November, was followed with unpleasant promptness by a sudden illness of yours truly." The book itself bound in original blue cloth with black title stamping to cover and spine. A concise study of the great speeches and oratory talents of men such as Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln, John C. Calhoun and Daniel Webster among others. A very impressive association copy that no doubt influeced two contemporary politicians from sister states. The pencil marks by Yates are faint and seem to end around page 100. Hint of toning to interior and light wear at hinges. Signed.

ROBERT FULTON (1765-1815). Fulton was an American engineer and inventor best known for developing the world's first commercially successful steamboat. ALS. 1 pg. 7 x 13. N.d. N.p. An autograph letter signed R. Fulton in pencil: My Dear Sir I find on calculation that it will be less expensive to place the machine in the ground and work the horse on one side for that purpose. I have made a sketch of a kind of shed to be covered with boat plank it is to be 50 feet long and 30 widefind a Carpenter, immediately show him the ground, and the kind of building you want and contract with him for time and price. In 1807, Fultons North River Steamboat (also known as the Clermont) traveled on the Hudson River with passengers from New York City to Albany and back again, a round trip of 300 nautical miles in 62 hours. The letter includes a description of a drawing, which is found on the verso. The drawing depicts the measurements and purpose of a shed intended to house a machine and provide accommodation for a horse on one side. Steam engines did in the early days still often rely on horse power, though the latter quickly became obsolete and became a measurement of the power output of engines horsepower. Additionally, an issue of the Portland Gazette and Maine Advertiser, dated October 8, 1810, is included. This newspaper contains a front-page article that delves into the subject of torpedoes, which Fulton pioneered during his service for the British during the Napoleonic Wars. The letter and newspaper show signs of age, including folds and yellowing, but are in otherwise good condition.
