Description:
New York: Charles L. Webster and Company, 1885. First edition, second state. Good. In green pictorial cloth stamped in black and gilt. Page 283 a cancel. Misprints on pages 9, 13, 57, and 155 all corrected from initial misprints, indicating second-state issue of the first edition. A cheaply manufactured book, few copies survive that do not show wear and tear. In this case, the binding is worn along all edges, and the text block is a bit shaken (not tight), the frontispiece is partially detached, yet all hinges and joints are intact (unusual for this title), and the spine ends are only minimally worn and frayed. Text is clean, if not exactly bright. A good copy of the first edition of one of the three defining books of nineteenth-century America. BAL 3415.

Misprints on pages 9, 13, 57, and 155 uncorrected, indicating first-state issue. A cheaply manufactured book, few copies survive that do not show wear and tear. In this case, we have taken measures to rehabilitate the spine and strengthen the hinges (splitting in most copies), and apply restorative cloth to the spine ends (stripped and fraying in most copies), extending the life of the book. Edges, lower corners rubbed, exposing boards. Pages toned and moderately stained. Text block a bit tired. Still, a prize copy of the first edition of one of the three defining books of nineteenth-century America. BAL 3415.

Pages toned, but not blemished. Menage was less a legal scholar than he was a literary figure. Consequently this book, posed as discourses on civil law, is actually a wide-ranging excursion through a vast variety of topics literary, historical, legal, and even domestic.

A little book of gratulatory sonnets, madrigals, and anancreontics written for the occasion of the wedding of Count Cristoforo di Rovero and Countess Zenobia d'Onigo, at the count's villa at San Zenone, near Bassano. The villa was the site of something like a salon, as di Rovero regularly invited collections of notable guests for extended stays in the country. Giuseppe Remondini, the head of the great printing, print-making, paper-decorating, and dyeing concern based in Bassano, was a close friend and frequent guest. Others in the circle included mathematicians, architects, public intellectuals, and the poet Jacopo Vittorelli, whom we suspect wrote the verses in…
