1581 Alunno Fabrica del Mondo Italian Literature Dante Petrarch Boccaccio FOLIO

Francesco Alunno was a 16th-century Italian lexicographer most known for his major work 'La Fabrica del Mondo' or 'The Construction of the World.' This early Italian dictionary is notable, not only for its Italian grammar, but for the inclusion of vocabulary from classic Italian literature of Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio. Alunno classifies the mythological, pagan gods, provides descriptions of the different levels of hell, defining attributes of astrological orders, and elements of the physical world.

1942 SUPERMAN 1ed Superhero Graphic Novel DC Comic Lowther Color Illustrated
"When Superman came out, it galvanized the entire industry. It's just part of the American scene. Superman is going to live forever."
― Jack Kirby, Comics Journal
Superman is one of the most popular fictional superheroes of all time, published by DC Comics. Superman appeared in various radio shows, newspaper comics, and eventually television and movie premiers. Because of his popularity, the name Superman has become synonymous with the American comic book. The book is the first novelization of a comic book character, and the first Superman story written by someone other than Jerry Siegel. It was Lowther who first provided many now-familiar details of Superman's birth and early life.
This 1942 first book edition by Random House features nine full-page illustrations with all 4 color illustrations.

Description:
1887 FOLIO Rime of Ancient Mariner Coleridge Gustave Dore & Paton Illustrated

Known as one of the English Lake Poets, Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the most notable 19th-century English romance poets. Coleridge's longest poem was 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. This poem was one of the most important poems written at the end of the 18th-century, as it was known to begin the shift from the Romantic period into the Modern period of English poetry. It describes the sea voyages of a sailor who experienced dangers, adventures, and even supernatural encounters!

This huge 1887 edition is notable for including the illustrations of Gustave Dore and Joseph Noel Paton. In addition to the highly desirable art, this edition features commentary and critical notes by Alfred Trumble.

1748 ENGLISH Vauban FORTS Military Engineering Fortifications Illustrated War

Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban was a 17th-century French engineer who, after serving as the Marshal of France, became known as the greatest engineer of his time. It was from his surveys and developments in fortifications that propelled him to engineering fame. In fact, his fortification philosophies were used for nearly a century after his life. Vauban understood that at some point, all forts would fall, no matter how powerful. From this, Vauban sought to improve fort designs to absorb as much of the attack force as possible, even including house and structures to support fortification walls.

This 1748 English edition of Vauban's famous "Method of Fortification" contains each of the highly desirable 32 engravings – views of forts, walls, and common attack strategies.

1603 Charlemagne & Louis Pious St Ansegisus FRANKS Monasticism Benedict Levita

Charlemagne was one of the most influential and iconic French kings. Reigning in the late 8th-century, Charlemagne, or Charles the Great, helped united most of Europe through the Carolingian Empire. Numerous historical works were published on the life and reign of Charlemagne including this early 17th-century history of the reigns of Charlemagne and his son Louis the Pious. This book is one of the best of its kind offering a complete survey of the 9th-century Franks. Published in 1603 by Chappell, it covers the Frankish monastic reforms set by Saint Ansegisus and the continuation of these laws by the unnamed pseudo-author known as Benedict Levita.

1731 King Mouley Ismael MOROCCO PIRATES Slaves & Slavery Janissaries Busnot RARE

Dominique Busnot was an 18th-century French historian who, after traveling to Morocco numerous times, wrote what became his most famous and important work – "History of Mouley Ismael, King of Morocco". Mouley Ismael served as king for nearly fifty years and is remembered for expanding Moroccan territory through military strength and diplomacy with European powers. Busnot describes Mouley's reign as bloodthirsty, having taken French Christians as prisoner by Moroccan pirates. Having spent many years in Morocco negotiating with Moroccan leaders for the release of these prisoners, Busnot wrote this work to convince readers to help financially with the efforts to free the Christian prisoners from Morocco.

This 1731 edition of Busnot's most famous work was published in Rouen by Pierre Machuse and includes Busnot position on the church's tradition of pardoning slaves.
