Hard Cover. Condition: VG+. No Additional Printings Listed. SIGNED - Octavo. Brown cloth covered boards and spine with shiny gilt lettering on the spine. Light bumping at the head and tail of the spine with light accompanying rubbing. Just enough rubbing to the corners to take the color off of their tips. White endpapers. Front endpapers have some faint smudges from handling over time. Front endpaper has a name in black pen that has been colored over in blue pen, under which is the inscription, "Paris, April 24, 1949." Free front endpaper bears the inscription: "This copy is for / Miss Alice Toklas / Osborn Andreas." Binding is straight and tight. Light dust stain on the upper edge of the textblock and a couple small brown spots together on the outside edge of the textblock. Pages, inside, are clean, white, and crisp. Author Osborn Andreas was a wealthy industrialist from Chicago who produced well received work on both Henry James (this copy) and Joseph Conrad, and became a patron to American writer James Purdy. By way of the date on the free front endpaper, this copy looks to have been gifted to Toklas in, or shortly after, 1949, two to three years after Gertrude Stein's death, while she was still living in the apartment where Stein held her famous literary salons. Signed by the Author.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Bright reprint of William James's (1842-1910) influential essay "The Pragmatic Method," personally owned by his wife, Alice Howe Gibbens James (1849-1922). William James was a leading American philosopher, psychologist, and historian who, with Charles Sanders Peirce, is credited with founding the philosophical school of Pragmatism. James became a pioneer of modern psychology with the publication of his book The Principles of Psychology (1890), and he made important contributions to the fields of philosophy and social thought with works like Essays in Radical Empiricism (published posthumously in 1912) and The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902). The birth of Pragmatism as a philosophical movement occurred in the late nineteenth century under the guiding thought of James, Peirce, and the other members of The Metaphysical Club-a conservational philosophical club that included, among others, James, Peirce, John Dewey, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., and Chauncey Wright. The "pragmatic method," James would maintain, is "a method for settling metaphysical disputes that otherwise might be interminable." William James was born into the gifted, but often eccentric, James family and had four siblings, including the celebrated author Henry James (1843-1916). William became engaged to Alice Howe Gibbens on May 10, 1878 and they were married in July. The James's would have five children together and, as wonderfully documented in Alice in Jamesland: The Story of Alice Howe Gibbs, by Susan E. Gunter (2009), Alice James was a cohesive force within the brilliant, industrious, and high-climbing dynastic family. In 1889 the family built their celebrated home at 95 Irving Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts near Harvard University (where James taught), and he would live there with his family until his death in 1910. The house remains a Cambridge historic landmark today and is architecturally significant as a work of Boston architect William Ralph Emerson, himself a cousin of Ralph Waldo Emerson. This rare offprint of James's influential article was personally owned by his Alice James who added the front wrapper instruction: "Please return to Mrs. W. James / 95 Irving St. / Cambridge." A remarkable and well-preserved association copy that once resided at the James's famous homestead. Octavo. Wrappers. 15 pp. Light toning to wrapper edges, although leaves remain bright; wrappers beginning to separate from staples at bottom spine; minor marginalia to final page; faint creasing across middle. Rare offprint of James's classic essay bearing the front wrapper instruction: "Please return to Mrs. W. James / 95 Irving St. / Cambridge." A wonderful association copy of this uncommon work. Very good. Signed by Author(s).

"after due inquiry and deliberate consideration by the Meeting of Ratcliffe & Barking", that the couple took each other as husband and wife, promising "through Divine assistance. to be Faithful and affectionate", signed by the couple and witnessed by his mother and her parents, and by 48 other witnesses, including Sarah, Catherine, Elizabeth and John Gurney (the children of Samuel Gurney of Ham House) and by Mrs Elizabeth Fry, 1780-1845, the great prison reformer, also by her husband's sister Miss Elizabeth Fry and by Sarah and Louise Fry, engraved with MS additions, vellum roll, 19½" x 13½", Plaistow, Essex, 28th 7th Month (July) In 1828 Joseph Fry's bank failed and he and Elizabeth had to leave Plashet to live above the office in St. Mildred's Court, Poultry. However, his tea business was still solvent, and by 1829, having paid off all private debts, they moved to The Cedars, Upton Lane, West Ham, close to Elizabeth's brother Samuel Gurney at Ham House. Miss Elizabeth Fry had been able to keep Plashet Cottage in East Ham. About this time Mrs Fry's diary shows her nervousness about her ministry but Miss Elizabeth was a minister too and was her staunch companion and support when they went to Meeting.
