SALE Near Very Good. Original Limited First Edition Wrappers. New York: At-Swim Press, 1981. First Limited Edition. 8v. A wonderful collection of Irish American poetry by the founder and owner of 'Facsimile Books', Kevin T. McEneaney a great New York City Irish bookstore that like my store, "Three Geese In Flight Celtic Books", and "Rivendell" and "Keshkerigan" were part of the "Golden Age" of Celtic Bookstores in New York specialized in Irish and Celtic Books. Few bookstores survive against the beast. I am perhaps the last survivor of the Alamo. Here at least Kevin's fine Irish American poetry has survived in this limited edition to 300 copies. This has a attractive Celtic calligraphy on the card cover. Full page Celtic design page as well. Except for cover soiling and fading in good shape and internally clean and bright. Here inscribed and signed by McEneaney himself. See our Three Geese in Flight Book Scans.

Quarterly Review, 1809. 9 pp. pp. 153-161. "This clearly written and well organized book is called the first textbook of general chemistry written in the English language to be based on Lavoisier's new chemistry. The principles are illustrated with experiments." -- Cole. / Accum (1769-1838), born in Germany where the family operated a small soap boiling business. In 1793 Accum came to London to take a position at Brande, apothecaries to George II. He became friends with Anthony Carlisle and William Nicholson and established his own laboratory. He assisted Sir Humphry Davy until 1803 (the year this book was issued). He also began lecturing in 1802 where is students included Benjamin Silliman and William Peck. He supplied apparatus to institutions abroad. Amazingly, in December 1820, he was arrested for mutilating books at the Royal Institution Library, which triggered his exiting England for Germany. "The value of Accum's work lies in the way he saw and exploited the technological possibilities of the rapidly advancing science of chemistry." [DSB].
