1949 1st UK ed Nineteen Eighty-Four George Orwell Dystopian Sci-Fi Fantasy 1984

"But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother."

­– George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four

The dystopian world that George Orwell created has been the bases for arguments and discussions for decades. "Big Brother is watching you!" The fear of most people, living in privacy, to have their privacy stripped away. Orwell perfectly depicts how the future can look, if little is done to protect our current state.

A rare, first British edition.

1829 Botanic Garden by Maund BOTANICAL Flowers Botany Illustrated Gardens 2v

Benjamin Maund was a 19th-century British naturalist who, beginning in 1825, published one of the most important and desirable works on British flowers. 'The Botanic Garden' was a regularly printed periodical that illustrated the flower and plants found in British gardens, particularly the Royal Gardens.

According to Dunthorne in 'Great Flower Books', Maund's "Botanic Garden" is
"A delightful work, not only full of useful and practical information, but illustrated with most charming plates carefully engraved and colored."

These first two volumes of 'The Botanic Garden' includes nearly 150+ hand-colored illustrations of flowers, leaves, plants, and more!

A rare 16th-century edition of Heliodorus's only known work, 'Aethiopica'. Written sometime in the 3rd or 4th-century, this work tells the story and history of the development of Ethiopia through the lens of an ancient Greek romance novel. It is also believed that that Torquato Tasso took significant liberties from 'Aethiopica' and used them in his famous book 'Jerusalem Delivered'.

This highly collectable 1626 French edition is one of the most desirable editions of this work. Titled 'Les Amours de Theagene et Chariclee', this printing contains 52 beautiful, full-page engravings of famed French engraver Michel Lasne.

Description:
1629 Epistolae of Saint Boniface Patron of Germania English Monks Popes Serarius

Saint Boniface was an 8th-century English Benedictine monk and was one of the most important figures in the establishing of the church in Germany. Becoming known as the patron saint of Germania, Boniface wrote countless letters of correspondence with popes, bishops, and preachers discussing church reforms, doctrines, and relationships of churches. These letters were published by numerous editors in the 17th and 18th-centuries, but perhaps none as are desirable as that of Nicolaus Serarius.

This impressive 1629 printing of Serarius's edition of Boniface's "Epistolae" was published in Mainz and is notable for its illustrated title page, engraved with 12 small, engraved scenes depicting the character of Saint Boniface.

1836 AFRICA 1ed Lander Niger River Exploration Illustrated Maps Slavery

Richard Lander was an English explorer who made his name for his voyages into Africa. After nearly a decade of African voyages, the British government sent Richard and his brother John in 1830 to explore the Niger River. While at the river delta, they were captured by local tribes for a short time. Their voyage did yield grand results – they discovered the Niger River course and outlets.
The specifics of the journey were written and published under various titles, including 'The Travels of Richard and John Lander'. This work is a fascinating account of African culture, geography, and 19th-century exploration. This 1836 first edition includes nine fine, full-page engravings, including maps and views of local tribes.

1822 Famous 2ed David Porter Journal USS Essex Battle of Valparaiso War of 1812

David Porter was an early American naval captain who served on the USS Constitution and the USS Essex. While aboard the Essex, Porter faced significant hardships, including the Battle of Valparaiso where the ship was ultimately disabled. Porter kept a journal of his time aboard the Essex, a journal that was quickly published after capture of the Essex.
According to Hill, the second of Porter's 'Journal' is the "best edition" and is more complete even than the first. In fact, this edition contains the first instance of the details of Porter's loss of the USS Essex in 1814. This edition also includes an expanded preface as well as folding maps and notes and illustrations on the Galapagos Islands.

1790 Five Orders Architecture VIGNOLA Italian ART Michelangelo RARE French ed

The most successful architectural textbook ever written!

A rare printing of Vignola's 'Five Orders of Architecture' Giacomo da Vignola was perhaps the most important 16th-century architects. Originally printed in 1562, 'Regola,' as it is often called, was successful mainly due to its effectiveness in teaching. It was designed to aid builders and designers in the realization of their architectural projects. It focuses on all five of the major orders (or styles) of architecture – Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, Tuscan, and Roman. (Fabrizio)
This 18th-century French edition includes 84 impressive architectural engravings and features a short treatise on stone cutting and carpentry, as well as lessons on the work of Vignola by Claude Delagardette.

v+321 pages. Small octavo (7 3/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's black cloth with gilt lettering to cover and spine. First British edition. St. Ives: Being The Adventures of a French Prisoner in England (1897) is an unfinished novel by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was completed in 1898 by Arthur Quiller-Couch. Unable to write, Stevenson dictated thirty chapters of the novel to his stepdaughter as a diversion from his debilitating illness. He alternated dictating St. Ives and The Weir of Hermiston but gradually lost interest in the former. The plot concerns the adventures of the dashing Capitaine Jacques St. Ives, a Napoleonic soldier, after his capture by the British. Condition: Corners bumped and rubbed, shelf wear, hinges and spine heal moderately rubbed, previous owner's name on front end paper else a very good copy.
