In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. VG book, Tight. Scuffed & bumped covers. FINE text, few spots in a few margins. In Arabic, including pagination. 9"x6", 154pp. Name also spelled Khowarizmi or Khwarizmi. Written in late 10th century. Khawarizmi's 10th century book is many times called world's first encyclopedia. Certainly very earl…y, but NOT the very first, according to a Wikipedia artical on history of encyclopedias. 5 raised ribs, two gilt Arabic words in 2nd panel. Red & black title page. 4 page index. A summary of Islamic science, subjects include math, alchemy, medicine, meteorology. Khawarizmi, 935-1002, was a statesman and poet who compiled the book in late 900s. This copy published in 1923. It was written to familiarize officials with scientific, and other, terms. Wikipedia says few transltions were made into English. ANOTHER KHAWARIZMI, of about 150 years earlier, was a noted scientist & mathematician. He was one of the first to recognize "0" as a separate & distinct number. He also brought the Hindu numbering system into the Arabic world and thence the Europeon. So, why don't we call our numbering system "Hindu" rather than "Arabic"? Very Good book. FINE text. Later half brown leather.

Apparently self published. Unusual format. First leaf a blank end paper, 2nd the SIGNED title page, 3rd the dedication page, then text. No half title page, table of c…ontents, index of first lines, or any blank eps at book's end. TP has no publisher info, merely Rutledge's 1938 cp date. Only publisher info is "Williams Printing Co Spartansburg, S.C." in tiny black letters on the outside of the back cover. Apparently very scarce as no auctioned copies listed by either ABPC or Rare Book Hub. FLAWLESS BUT: tips & spine ends faintly scuffed, perhaps 1/10" or so effected. Last, book stays closed when stood on its spine. So, a good chance it was never opened, let alone read. Lastly, with any use the covers of stapled binding tear at the staples. Not so here. FINE softcover. Black lettered front cover. 9"x6", (1-6),7-39pp. Signed by Author(s).

Contained in the almanac is 14 pages devoted to the "United Colonies" (its wording) need to make their own gunpowder. It starts with the law, with John Hancock's signature, authorizing the manufacture of saltpetre. Saltpetre was the key ingredient in making gunpowder. Benjamin Rush writes on how saltpetre is made. This is followed by a page of instructions on how the actual gunpowder is finally made. It should be noted gunpowder was still made this way in the Civil War. This followed by a full page woodcut plan of Boston showing, among other things, the Liberty Tree, Bunker's Hill and Gen Gates' lines. Lastly a half page key to the plan. This map also gives the dates of the Lexington Concord & Bunker's Hill battles. Front cover, which is also tp, aged & lightly foxed. FLAWS. TP moderately aged & foxed. Other leaves lightly aged.

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st edition. VG book. PMUC was built from a $5000 Pullman donation and $5000 from the village of Albion. 10"x7",30pp. PULLMAN signed fep. PMUC was built as a memorial to Pullman's parents. Pullman's first business successes were in Albion when a young man. PMUC is an unusual (it has no steeple) and… attractive church still used by the Unitarian Universalist Association(UUA). The stained glass windows are Tiffany. The main window about 15'x8'. It is signed by Tiffani on a small glass plate affixed to lower right. Tiffany would keep his best works in his studio as long as possible and would deliver only at the very last minute. Pullman had to pressure Tiffany to get the window delivered in time for the dedication. An unusual George Pullman item; not a word about railroads, sleeping cars or any business matter. The infamous Pullman strike was only the year before. DISCLOSURE: your bookseller is a half hour from Albion. He is a Unitarian and attended this church for 10-15 years. NEAR FINE book. One minor flaw. Pullman SIGNATURE on fep. TEG. Signed by Author(s).
