[1]pp. on a folded folio sheet, with printed docketing on the fourth page. Folio. Lightly tanned around the edges. Near fine. Rare printing of a British Parliamentary "slip bill" seeking to reestablish trade between Great Britain and the United States a few years before the outbreak of the War of 1812 and in the midst of great tension between the two nations. This bill was considered by Parliament in the spring of 1809, in the wake of President Jefferson's rescinding the Embargo Act and following the negotiations between U.S. Secretary of State Robert Smith and British envoy David Erskine, which created a glimmer of hope that Anglo- American relations might be repaired after a period of great stress and turmoil. In March 1809, Jefferson signed the Non- Intercourse Act, which rescinded the Embargo of 1807, and held out the promise of resuming trade with England and France if either of those nations ended its commercial restrictions toward the United States. The Erskine-Smith negotiations of April held out the promise of improved relations, and in May the Parliament considered the present bill, which permitted trade between Great Britain and the United States to be carried on in American ships. Unfortunately, Prime Minister Canning disavowed the Erskine-Smith Agreement in late May, and Anglo-American relations continued to deteriorate, culminating in outright warfare in 1812. Slip bills are printed during the legislative process, in small numbers, for the use of legislators and staff. They are ephemeral items, and their survival is rare. A printed note before the text of the bill reads "the figures in the margin denote the Number of the Folios in the written copy," which indicates just how early in the legislative process these bills were printed. OCLC locates only a single copy, at the University of Massachusetts. OCLC 49887290.

15 pp.A comprehensive collection of plates showing all architectural features and sculpture of the Amsterdam City Hall, since 1808 the Royal Palace, here in the Covens & Mortier firm's rare ca. 1780 issue with the engravings newly printed from the original copper plates from the years 1655 to 1664 and the text reissued from Leonardus Schenk's 1747 Dutch language edition, the whole with a new title-page. ''This version has not been seen'' (BAL). At least most of the plates were engraved for and first published in Jacob van Campen's masterpiece Afbeelding van 't stadt huys van Amsterdam (Amsterdam, Frederick de Wit, 1664), Hubert Quiellinus's Prima [et secunda] pars praecipuarum . curiae Amstelrodamenis (Amsterdam, Frederick de Wit 1655-1663) and Afbeelding van 't stadt huys van Amsterdam in dartigh coopere plaaten . geteeckent door Jacob Vennekool (Amsterdam, Dancker Danckerts, 1661).It includes the famous plate showing the extraordinary cartographic mosaic floor of the Burgerzaal of the Amsterdam City Hall, designed by Jacob van Campen, with a celestial map in the centre and the magnificent map of the world in 2 hemispheres on either side. The engraving was first published in 1661, and the map shows Tasman's recent discoveries in Australia and Tasmania, and depicts California as an island. Many discoveries from his second voyage remained otherwise unpublished until the end of the 17th century. The drawing of the floor was made by Jacob Vennekool who worked closely with Van Campen, and since his drawings were first published even before the building was completed, they may reflect Van Campen's plan more closely than the finished building itself. They also, of course, show it before the alterations made at various times in later years.Binding a little worn, untrimmed, otherwise in good condition.

A contemporary manuscript transcription of a narrative written by Captain Horatio Nelson in late June 1786, detailing his efforts to enforce the British Navigation Acts in the West Indies while posted to the twenty-eight- gun frigate, HMS Boreas. The events documented in this manuscript occurred quite early in Nelson's naval career, when he just twenty-five years old, and his actions in strictly enforcing the Navigation Acts against the newly-independent United States could have jeopardized his career. The significance Nelson gave the situation is evident in the detailed collection of documents he assembled to defend himself. Though an edited version of Nelson's narrative was published in the 1840s, this contemporary account provides an unedited transcript of Nelson's justification of his actions at a crucial point in his naval career. As described by Rear Admiral Joseph F. Callo, U.S. Navy Reserve (Retired), "Nelson's tour in the West Indies turned out to be a pivot point in his career, a three-year assignment that simultaneously would test and shape his character as a naval officer in career-threatening ways. It was a period when he had to deal with a major conflict between military and diplomatic interests. More important, it was a time when he blatantly challenged the judgments and orders of his commanding officer in the West Indies, Admiral Sir William Hughes. In fact, Nelson's tour as captain of the Boreas came very close to ending his naval career. It was almost certainly more threatening in that respect than any of his later, more attention- getting assignments." Nelson's narrative includes supporting letters compiled by him to his commanding officers, his junior officers, customs officers, the British-appointed colonial governors, members of Parliament, and to the William Pitt (the Younger) administration and King George III, in addition to return letters from some recipients of Nelson's correspondence as well as official reports. This account was compiled to bolster Nelson's argument that his strict enforcement of Britain's Navigation Acts against the Americans in the West Indies was legal and carried out under orders. Britain's Navigation Acts were a series of laws passed from 1651 through 1696 that banned all foreign trade with the British colonies - any colonial products had to be transported in British ships with British crews, thereby restricting all colonial trade to the mother country alone rather than through multinational free trade. This meant that England would have first claim on valuable colonial exports, and all foreign imports into the colonies had to first pass through English hands, which in turn promoted royal custom revenues. This mercantilist trade practice benefited the American colonies before the Revolution - commerce with the West Indies thrived as the American colonies were still a part of the British Empire. After the Revolution, however, the protectionism inherent in the Navigation Acts excluded American trade entirely. Since the United States during the period covered here had no central government (being governed at the time under the Articles of Confederation), it could not respond to such economic warfare from Great Britain. In 1784-86, the period when Nelson was posted to the West Indies on the Boreas and just following the recognition of the United States as an independent nation, the Navigation Acts became a problem for West Indian colonial merchants, who had come to rely on their long-established American trade partners.

24; 1-2, 5-26 (of 26) engr. ll.Ad 1: Only copy located, with the plates in their first state, of a print series depicting beggars and tramps published by Claes Jansz. Visscher after the original ca. 1625 print series by Jacques Callot, Capitano de Baroni. Hollstein notes that the stock list of Claes Jansz. Visscher's son Claes Claesz. Visscher II includes this title, but no copy could be located. The plates apparently descended to Carel Allard (active 1673-1707) for he published it with the plates in a second state, bearing his own name (known only from a copy at Yale University Library). Ad 2: A rare print series of tramps, cripples and beggars, originally engraved by Hondius after designs by the Dutch painter Pieter Jansz, Quast (ca. 1605-1647), first published in 1638 and still bearing that date at the end. The plates are here in their second state, reworked and published by Claes Jansz. Visscher and dated 1652 on the title-plate. Small spot on the title-page of the first work, a few faint stains in the margins, plates also numbered by hand, and lacking plates 3 and 4 of the second work.
