1857 1ed HORSES & Horsemanship Frank Forester Riding Herbert Illustrated 2v

Henry William Herbert's works are of major importance to collectors of American sporting books. Herbert is considered the first sportswriter in America who helped make sport hunting both abundant available and beloved among American men. Each of Herbert's sports books were given the title "Frank Forester's" and were popular throughout the second-half of the 19th-century.

This 1857 first edition of Herbert's "Forester's Horse and Horsemanship" is a rare treatise on horse riding, caring for horses, horse populations in America, horse-drafting, Indian ponies, breeding, and much more.

Description:
1689 English Reformation Burnet Henry VIII Elizabeth I Portraits RARE Latin ed

As a response to Nicolas Sanders attack on the English Reformation, Gilbert Burnet published a rebuttal that covered the reign of Henry VIII, the second volume covers the reign of Elizabeth I. The work saw such success and popularity that his reputation was enhanced, and the English Parliament gave thanks to Burnet after the completion of Burnet.

Burnet gives evidences of the difficulties and challenges that the Church of England faced against Catholics and the government. Burnet defended his doctrines in this work and "confirmed them in another sermon, in which he also made some reflections on Bishops" that were impactful in English reforms. (Burnet, HRCE, Book III, 307).

This Latin edition was published in 1689 and is considerably rarer than the earlier English printings. It also features 16 impressive copper engraved portraits.

Description:
1657 Lucius Florus History of Ancient Rome + Ampelius Liber Memorialis Salmasius

"Men of outstanding ability are more likely to lack the power of controlling their own people than of defeating an enemy in battle."
― Livy, The History of Rome

Florus was a Roman historian who lived during the 2nd-century AD. His history of Rome was collected by Livy, and mainly focuses on the foundation of Rome though the end of the B.C. era. The work is considered inaccurate, especially compared to Livy's much more popular and famous History of Rome.

This 1657 Elzevier edition of Florus was edited by the 17th-century French classist Claudius Salmasius. First appearing in 1638, this book not only includes Florus but also an edition of Lucius Ampelius's 'Liber Memorialis'. This work is an ancient index of 1st-century Roman history focusing on cosmography, mythology, and geography during the Republican period of Rome. Curiously, this is only the second known edition of Ampelius.

"All he regarded; but in Syria most,
He mark'd the leaders of the Christian host:
That eye, whose penetrating glances dart
To each deep secret of the human heart"
– Torquato Tasso, Jerusalem Delivered, canto I

Originally written in 1575, Torquato Tasso's famous "Jerusalem Delivered" tells a mythical story of the First Crusade complete with Christian Knights battling Muslim warriors.

This 1678 edition is a very rare, miniature 17th-century printing of Torquato Tasso's 'Jerusalem Delivered' with 10 illustrated plates by Sébastien Le Clerc and an engraved half-title.
