Troupers of the Gold Coast; or, The Rise of Lola Crabtree. Entertaining biography of Lotta Crabtree, the performer and personality who became known as "The Fairy Star of The Gold Rush" and "The California Diamond". Crabtree arrived in the California gold

Interior Nice tight Clean Light Wear Fox, , Crabtree arrived in the California gold fields at age 5 and began dancing in the mining camps at age 8. She and her family moved to San Francisco when she was 9 and Lotta continued to attract much attention on the stage for a number of years. Several years later she came east and was a sensation in the Broadway music halls. As can be imagined, the beautiful performer was ardently persued but never married; her mother, and later she herself, invested in California real estate. She retired to New Jersey, a wealthy woman, at age 45., Lotta, who became the most popular soubrette of the seventies and eighties, began her career in the gold camps of the High Sierras, and the gambling saloons and variety halls of San Francisco. Troupes appeared not only in the theatres of the cities, but took to the road by stage coach or even on foot and played in the remotest mining towns with showers of gold as their reward. This is the story of the fascinating Lotta who emerged out of this background to become throughout the country the foremost comedy actress and the pioneer in extravaganza and burlesque. Includes much about other entertainers of the time, including Ada Menken, Lola Montez, the Booths, Julia Dean, and more. Wheat's California Gold Rush. Signed by Author(s). 1st Edition. Hardcover.

Some friendly criticisms having induced him to reflect on what he had written, he saw, as will generally happen in such cases, that were he to go over the ground again, he would find much that lie would desire to alter, and many things that might be added. He therefore resolved to recast the whole and expand it to the compass of a thin volume. The thin volume, however, fattened as it approached maturity, until it reached the respectable dimensions in which it now awaits the appreciation of any reader who may think it worthy of his attention..

He therefore resolved to recast the whole and expand it to the compass of a thin volume. The thin volume, however, fattened as it approached maturity, until it reached the respectable dimensions in which it now awaits the appreciation of any reader who may think it worthy of his attention.. First Edition. Hard Cover.

A System of Theoretical and Practical Chemistry. Volume II [only].
by ACCUM, Fredrick. [showing as spelled on title] [Frederick] [Friedrich Christian Accum] (1769-1838).
London:: Printed for the Author, 1803., 1803. 8vo. [iv], xxvii, [1], 360, xxxi, [1] pp. 4 engraved plates of apparatus (Plate II acts as frontispiece, all plates are unnumbered), index. Crudely rebound in quarter calf, marbled paper over old boards. Armorial bookplate of Aske's Boy School, Haberdasher's Livery Company. Ownership signature on title of Jas. Law Jones, "rec'd from Messrs. Rickers staff & Jones -- 15 Sept. 1803". Scarce. First edition, vol. II only. With added paper (laid in): A Manual of Analytical Mineralogy. Review. 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]. REFERENCES: Cole 9 (pp. 4-5); DSB I, pp. 43-44Neville I, p. 10.

Vereinigung Berliner Architekten MDCCCLXXIX-MDCCCCIV
by Fritsch, K. E. O. (Text by); Adolf Hartung (Title page decorated by)
[Berlin]: Vereinigung Berliner Architekten, 1905. First edition. Hardcover. g- to vg. Folio (13 1/2 x 10 1/4"). 58, [2]pp (Text and in-text illustrations), [56] leaves (Plates). Original blue cloth, with gold lettering to front cover. Decorative endpapers. Laid in, an original and unsigned watercolor on transparent paper, and the third issue of the Technische Hochschule Charlottenburg, dated February 27, 1920. Title page decorated by Adolf Hartung. This splendid photo-illustrated architectural monograph was published by the Union of Berlin Architects (Vereinigung Berliner Architekten) to commemorate the 25th anniversary of their founding. The founding members included distinguished historians as well as Martin Gropius, a celebrated architect and the uncle of Walter Gropius. By 1904, the association had over two hundred members. As seen in this book, the Union was an active participant in the architectural life of Berlin and curious about developments elsewhere. "Vereinigung Berliner Architekten MDCCCLXXIX-MDCCCCIV" features striking full-page b/w illustrated and photographic plates showing some of the best architectural examples produced between 1879 and 1904, such as: - The Berlin Dom (Cathedral), constructed from 1893 to 1905 by Julius Carl Raschdorff. - An architectural drawing of the Metz railway station, under construction at the time of the publication. The impressive Gothic-style station was built between 1905 and 1908 by German architect Jürgen Kröger assisted by the architects Jürgensen and Bachmann. - The Kaiserbrücke, a railway bridge on the Mainz rail bypass across the Rhine at the north end of Mainz. The bridge was built between 1901 and 1904 by Franz Heinrich Schwechten, one of the most famous architects of his time who contributed to the development of historicist architecture. The Kaiserbrücke was destroyed in 1945 by retreating German troops. - The New Town Hall (Leipzig), built between 1899 and 1905 by Hugo Licht. - The Lessing-Theater (Berlin), built between 1897 and 1898 by Hermann von der Hude and Julius Hennicke. The theater was destroyed during an allied air raid in April 1945. - The Bismarcksäule (Cologne), a prominent memorial statue dedicated to Prince and Chancellor Otto von Bismarck. The statue was built by A. Hartmann. - The Bismarck-Denkmal (Hamburg), is a memorial sculpture located in the St. Pauli quarter, dedicated to Otto von Bismarck. The monument was built by W. Müller. - The Charlottenburg U-Bahn station, built by Alfred Grenander. - The Almemor (raised platform also called bema, bimah or bima) of the synagogue in Lindenstrasse (Berlin). The synagogue was built in 1881 by Cremer & Wolffensteir. Some of the buildings featured in this work were built in the style of the Jugendstill (Art Nouveau). Minor abrasion to spine. Binding rubbed along edges. Text in German. Binding in overall good- to good, interior in very good condition.

Amorum Libri Tres
by [Ovid] Publius Ovidii Nasonis. Herausgegeben von J. Meier Graese (editor). Rudolph Schott, translator to German. Heinrich Wieynck. Andre Lambert, illustrator of vignettes and title decoration
Munich: Marees Gesellschaft, R. Piper & Co. Verlag, 1918. First Limited Edition Thus. Full Pigskin (Full Leather), with custom slipcase. Near Fine. No. 162 of 200, with one of 150 on hand-made paper of Wiggins, Teape & Co. 240 copies in all were made, including unnumbered copies (212 were numbered in one of two ways). 4to. (27 by 20 cm.) 282, [5] pp. The outstanding aspects of this edition and copy in which Ovid's verse is rendered in both Latin and German translation are magnificent decorative pigskin binding, the flowing type, and the elegant page decoration, which includes a huge variety of cameo images. These images are never repeated exactly, it should also be noted. Resulting is a book of extraordinary beauty, both exterior and interior-wise. Aesthetically the book production is true to the classical in its lines and sensibility while being securely of its own time when a sinuous Art Nouveau or Jugendstil was ripening into a modernist economy, or Art Deco. There are sensuous Rococo details, such as the gilt lines etched into the spine, while one can not but be impressed with the lack of clutter on each and every page! While the type is not a plain Roman or the like, the gentle curvature of the cursive invites and soothes the eye, and every word should be crisply clear to the modern reader. Light soiling and darkening on the spine. Clean and tight within. The slipcase has some wear.

Anruf: Zeitschrift der deutschen Kriegsgefangenen in Wilton Park, Nr. 1, Februar 1946; Querschnitt: Monatszeitschrift des Camp 186, Nr. 6, 1. Mai 1946
by Breuer, Joseph P. (Anruf's title page designed by); Alfred Brasch (Anruf's Ed.)
Wilton Park, England: NP, 1946. First edition. Softcover. vg. Collection of two German POW Camp Newspapers providing a first-hand account of the feelings and emotions of the men, as well as their day-to-day activities during their internment in Great Britain. The monthly newspapers were produced by prisoners in Berechurch Hall (Camp 186) and in Wilton Park: - "Anruf: Zeitschrift der deutschen Kriegsgefangenen in Wilton Park, Nr. 1, Februar 1946." Folio. 25, [1]pp. Original illustrated wrappers. "Anruf" was published in Wilton Park (Beaconsfield), a war camp set up in 1942 to hold prisoners likely to have information of high intelligence value, such as German and Italian officers, pilots and u-boat commanders. Among the occupants was Gerd von Rundstedt, the last Commander-in-Chief of German forces in the West. The White House was a three storey Palladian mansion that was turned into an officers' mess for staff and interrogators. A series of Nissen huts was built for staff of other ranks. Prisoners were housed in a compound of flat-roofed brick and concrete cells. The first high ranking prisoners began to arrive in the middle of 1943. These included Marshall Messe, Field-Marshalls von Rundstedt and Busch and Rudolph Hess. As the summer of 1945 turned into autumn, the generals and the marshals departed. By November 7, 1945, Wilton Park was ready for its new role, a re-education facility for German prisoners of war. Indeed, between January 1946 and June 1948 more than 4,000 Germans attended re-education classes at Wilton Park, where they discussed democratic processes with visiting political figures and intellectuals, including philosopher Bertrand Russell, social reformer Lord William Beveridge, and the first female Member of Parliament, Lady Astor. The first participants at Wilton Park included some of the most senior German PoWs in Britain and many became leading figures in the rebuilding of post-war Germany. Helmut Schmidt, for example, the former German Chancellor, hailed Wilton Parkâs role for post-war Germany, stating that âmany ideas became a political reality.â The success of these classes is epitomised in one German participantâs statement of his time at Wilton Park: âI was a Nazi; I came to Wilton Park and it changed my life.â This first issue of "Anruf" opens with a long poem by Wolfgang Weyrauch titled "Anruf." Articles by Martin Guetter; Dr. Erwin Weghorn; Gustav Radbruch; Justus Franz Wittkop; Alfred Brasch, and others. The articles deal with current problems in Europe, democracy 'as exemplified in Britain,' the Nuremberg Trial, the United Nations organization, politics, religion, etc.. and above all a strongly anti-Nazi stance. Includes two in-text b/w drawings of the camp. Contemporary stamp on inside of front cover: "Wilton Park Training Centre. Authorised to be retained by P. W. Georg Kunz - 312 495 (prisoner's name and matricule are handwritten). Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition. - "Querschnitt: Monatszeitschrift des Camp 186." Folio. 20pp. Original illustrated stappled wrappers. "Querschnitt" was published in Berechurch Hall (Essex), a camp which served as one of the countryâs largest transit centres for German prisoners captured during the final stages of the Second World War. It was the first 1,500 men to arrive on September 19, 1944, who helped the camp take shape in those early days. Transported in by lorry at night, they were ordered to pitch their own bell-tents on a field encircled by a few strands of barbed wire. Work on improvised kitchen and toilets did not start until the next day, and hot food was not available until that night. But as Camp 186 grew to cope with more than 6,000 prisoners at a time, new facilities, including Nissen huts for housing and a 120-bed medical center, were added. There were also orchestras, a newspaper ("Querschnitt"), two theatre groups - one of which performed the works of Dante, Schiller and Shakespeare in large marquees - and even a 300-student Catholic seminary. This issue contains articles by Heinz C. Woelfle (of the Geheimefeldpolizei, who served in the Channel Islands at a base called "Silvertide," Havre-de-Pas, Jersey); Dr. F. Glasau; Herbert Hellmann, and others. Illustrated with two woodcuts (front and back covers), and 6 inside. The content features various items such as news reports (Nuremberg Trial), gardening, alimentation, entertainment programs, and above all, the usual anti-Nazi editorial stance. Minor and faint creasing mark throughout. Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition.

Prisoners were housed in a compound of flat-roofed brick and concrete cells. The first high ranking prisoners began to arrive in the middle of 1943. These included Marshall Messe, Field-Marshalls von Rundstedt and Busch and Rudolph Hess. As the summer of 1945 turned into autumn, the generals and the marshals departed. By November 7, 1945, Wilton Park was ready for its new role, a re-education facility for German prisoners of war. Indeed, between January 1946 and June 1948 more than 4,000 Germans attended re-education classes at Wilton Park, where they discussed democratic processes with visiting political figures and intellectuals, including philosopher Bertrand Russell, social reformer Lord William Beveridge, and the first female Member of Parliament, Lady Astor. The first participants at Wilton Park included some of the most senior German PoWs in Britain and many became leading figures in the rebuilding of post-war Germany. Helmut Schmidt, for example, the former German Chancellor, hailed Wilton Parkâs role for post-war Germany, stating that âmany ideas became a political reality.â The success of these classes is epitomised in one German participantâs statement of his time at Wilton Park: âI was a Nazi; I came to Wilton Park and it changed my life.â This first issue of "Anruf" opens with a long poem by Wolfgang Weyrauch titled "Anruf." Articles by Martin Guetter; Dr. Erwin Weghorn; Gustav Radbruch; Justus Franz Wittkop; Alfred Brasch, and others. The articles deal with current problems in Europe, democracy 'as exemplified in Britain,' the Nuremberg Trial, the United Nations organization, politics, religion, etc.. and above all a strongly anti-Nazi stance. Includes two in-text b/w drawings of the camp. Contemporary stamp on inside of front cover: "Wilton Park Training Centre. Authorised to be retained by P. W. Georg Kunz - 312 495 (prisoner's name and matricule are handwritten). Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition. - "Querschnitt: Monatszeitschrift des Camp 186." Folio. 20pp. Original illustrated stappled wrappers. "Querschnitt" was published in Berechurch Hall (Essex), a camp which served as one of the countryâs largest transit centres for German prisoners captured during the final stages of the Second World War. It was the first 1,500 men to arrive on September 19, 1944, who helped the camp take shape in those early days. Transported in by lorry at night, they were ordered to pitch their own bell-tents on a field encircled by a few strands of barbed wire. Work on improvised kitchen and toilets did not start until the next day, and hot food was not available until that night. But as Camp 186 grew to cope with more than 6,000 prisoners at a time, new facilities, including Nissen huts for housing and a 120-bed medical center, were added. There were also orchestras, a newspaper ("Querschnitt"), two theatre groups - one of which performed the works of Dante, Schiller and Shakespeare in large marquees - and even a 300-student Catholic seminary. This issue contains articles by Heinz C. Woelfle (of the Geheimefeldpolizei, who served in the Channel Islands at a base called "Silvertide," Havre-de-Pas, Jersey); Dr. F. Glasau; Herbert Hellmann, and others. Illustrated with two woodcuts (front and back covers), and 6 inside. The content features various items such as news reports (Nuremberg Trial), gardening, alimentation, entertainment programs, and above all, the usual anti-Nazi editorial stance. Minor and faint creasing mark throughout. Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition.
