[1]-8, 9-348 pp. Text in double column format. 15 CONDITION: Very Good Minus. Intermittent rubbing, or small scuffs, seen along joints tips and and marbled paper boards, however, this is more of a statement of appropriate age than damage. Narrow offset to ffep. from pastedown. Front hinge with one inch crack near foot, other hinge in order, and the whole remaining square and firm. Pages are moderately tanned, with occasional light soiling. **The work has been described as a "light novel" encompassing men from the legal, journalistic and religious professions, shown in hypocritical antipathy toward women in nineteenth-century England. The fictional females endure their reputations and marriage prospects being at the mercy of priggish, gossiping relations and romantic rivals. Begun in the Holburn Inns of Chambers, a young man, Adam Barton, mysteriously falls to his death from an upper story window. Will young Magdalen's secret shame doom her to a quick and unhappy union with a man she does not love? Will Edward Grafton, her intended bridegroom, the shifty curate to the Rector of Saxbury, be able to conceal his past assignations with the Widow Lucy Verner? Many secrets and a complex set of motives inform this twisty tale. ***British AUTHOR Charles William Shirley Brooks, (1816-1874) a London-born solicitor-turned-journalist and novelist, became the editor of Punch magazine in 1870 having contributed to that periodical for twenty years. He has been described as a" bohemian man of letters." (Sutherland). *** ILLUSTRATOR GEORGE DU MAURIER: artist and contributor to Punch, grandfather of novelist Daphne du Maurier. ***Provenance: INDIAN HILL FARM, Perley Poore/ Moseley family, West Newbury (near Newburyport), Massachusetts. . ***The PERLEY POORE family were early settlers of Old Newbury, to whom the town granted land along the Merrimack River purchased from one Tom Indian in 1650. M.P. Poore, or Mary Perley Poore, was the mother to her more famous son, Maj. Ben: Perley Poore (1820-1887). A civil war veteran, he worked as a journalist and foreign correspondent in the 1850's (similar to the Author of this work). Perley Poore eventually moved to Washington DC, where he was appointed Clerk of the Senate Printing Records, Editor of the Congressional Directory, and founder and first President of the Washington correspondents Gridiron Club. He was also author of notable political reminiscences of Jacksonian era politics, REF: See J.J. Currier, Ould Newbury Historical and Biographical Sketches,Boston, 1896. Sutherland, pp. 87-88. G.

From the Fireside Poets to Virgil's Georgics, poems on rural, and sometimes agricultural, themes are presented. Author and Professor JOSEPH WILLIAM JENKS (1808-1884) was a life member of the American Oriental Society in 1880, having presumably followed in his father's footsteps in the study and teaching of languages. Joseph was one of sixteen children born to notable minister, social reformer and linguist, Rev. William Jenks of Newton, Massachusetts. Jenks-père had degrees from Harvard and Bowdoin Colleges, where he also taught, languages being a necessary tool to the missionary minister. He was also a founder of the American Antiquarian Society; this book's recipient BEN: PERLEY POORE (1820-1887) was elected a member of the same organization in 1874. Perley Poore was , however, best known as the first "national correspondent" of nineteenth century political reporting. He began his experience as a foreign correspondent over the signature "Perley" during the 1840's, first with the Boston Atlas. He went on the edit the Boston Bee and American Sentinel, later becoming the Washington correspondent to The Boston Journal and other papers in the 1850's. He became known as Major Poore during the Civil War, organizing the militia, which became the 8th Massachusetts volunteers. Perley Poore may have been known to this book's Inscriber MARSHALL PINCKNEY WILDER (1798-1886), a Massachusetts farmer/horticulturist-turned politician, for a famous wager Poore had on the outcome of the presidential election of 1856. Perley Poore promised to push a barrel of apples on a handcart the thirty-six miles to Boston from his home at Indian Hill Farm in West Newbury the thirty-six miles to Boston, if Millard Fillmore beat John C. Fremont in the Massachusetts polls. A Broadsheet of the "Wheelbarrow Polka" was printed in 1856 commemorating the occasion, upon which the journalist was said to have been greeted by a "military escort and ten (to thirty thousand, depending on the source) cheering onlookers" after the two day trudge into Boston. James Buchanan did, actually, win the national election, making Perley Poore's efforts even more "fruitless." Inscriber Marshall Wilder was in the fruit business, as a leading pomologist.; he introduced 1200 new varieties of pear, as well as 800 varieties of camellia and azalea, to the Bay State. Provenance: From Benjamin Perley Poore descendants. OCLC 4196533. John Andrew (illustrator). Book.
