".The Declaration of Independence, one of the bravest documents in human history. No plea for reform, it demanded a divorce for the "Free and Independent States." Creating a brand new nation, the delegates, all white and all men, put everything at risk. Men of property, well educated and powerful, they knew full well that by signing it, they stood to lose everything, their property, their families, their very lives if the Declaration and their mission failed. Hauntingly, Dr. Armitage includes a section that the delegates deleted. Here Jefferson speaks of the horrors of slavery, charging that the George III '. . . waged cruel war against human nature itself . . . Determined to keep open a market where MEN should be bought & sold . . . '" (From the publisher) LEC Bibliography. HBS 69353. $2,500.

Softcover. Zustand: Very Good. The Westminster Magazine; or, The Pantheon of Taste, August 1776. London: Thomas Wright, [1776]. Folding engraved map; lacking an engraved view and a piece of music, 52 pp. (395-448), 5? x 8 in. Copies of the Declaration first arrived in London on August 10, 1776. The Westminster Magazine was one o…f several London periodicals to include the Declaration in their August issue, printed in September; the full text appears on pages 431-32, without comment."We hold these Truths to be self-evident; that all Men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." This publication, like all other British printings we have seen, silently alters some of the Declaration text to avoid publishing direct personal attacks against the king, which could be prosecuted. In the comparisons below, the self-censored Westminster text appears in italic, and the Declaration's actual text, where it differs, is in brackets:"[The History of the present King of Great Britain] The present History of Great Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations; all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid World."[He] It has refused [his] its assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good." (p431)"[A Prince] A Government whose character is thus marked by every act which may define [a Tyrant] Tyranny, is unfit to be the Ruler of a free People." (p432)The issue opens with "A Concise Account of the British Colonies in America," accompanied by an engraved, fold-out "Map of the present Seat of War in North America," which provides a brief geographic description of each colony, including Newfoundland, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and East and West Florida.Excerpts from more than three pages of "American Intelligence" (p442-45).General William Howe letter to Lord George Germain, July 1776, Staten Island:"the Rebels.are numerous, and very advantageously posted with strong intrenchments, both upon Long Island and that of New York, with more than 100 pieces of cannon for the defence of the town towards the sea, and to obstruct the passage of the fleet up the North river, besides a considerable field train of artillery." (p442/c2)"I propose waiting here for the English fleet or for the arrival of Lieut. General [Henry] Clinton, in readiness to proceed, unless by some unexpected change of circumstances, in the mean time, it should be found expedient to act with the present force." (p443/c1)"Governor Franklyn [Benjamin Franklin's son, William Franklin], who for a long time maintained his ground in Jersey, has been lately taken into custody at Amboy, and is at this time detained a prisoner in Connecticut: And the Mayor of New-York [David Mathews] was confined a few days ago upon a frivolous complaint of sending intelligence to Governor [William] Tryon, brought to trial, and condemned to suffer death; but, by the last intelligence, the sentence was not carried into execution."Notwithstanding these violent proceedings, I have the satisfaction to inform your lordship, that there is great reason to expect a numerous body of the inhabitants to join the [British] army from the provinces of York, the Jerseys, and Connecticut; who, in this time of universal oppression, only wait for opportunities to give proofs of their loyalty and zeal for Government. Several men have within these two days come over to this island, and to the ships, and I am informed that the Continental Congress have declared the United Colonies free and independent States." (p443/c1)Additional ContentThis issue also includes a variety of short articles: "The Pleasures of Poverty: or, Adventures in a Coffee-House" (p405-6); "The Anxieties of Irresolution" (p406-7); "An Essay on the Variety of Opinions, Whence It Proceeds, and the Uncertainty of Human Knowledg.

Softcover. Zustand: Very Good. Pennsylvania Magazine: or American Monthly Museum. Philadelphia, Pa., R. Aitken, June 1776 [published ca. July 4.] 48 pp., 5 1/4 x 8 1/4 in., without fold out map. Due to a shortage of paper,The Pennsylvania Magazine: or American Monthly Museum, edited by Thomas Paine, held the June issue past its…normal publication date (which would have been July 3rd), allowing time for the last-minute insertion of the actual resolution of Congress declaring independence. The Pennsylvania Evening Post is the only other contemporary publication of the resolution we have found, in their July 2 issue. Historical BackgroundThe Pennsylvania Magazine was founded by printer and bookseller Robert Aitken, who launched the periodical singlehandedly in January 1775, but soon hired Thomas Paine, who had only arrived in America in December 1774. As editor, Paine quickly became a major contributor, sometimes writing under the initials "A.B.," and other times writing with no by-line. Paine wrote prolifically on many topics for the magazine, including Revolutionary War politics and even descriptions of inventions.Due to a paper shortage, the June issue was slightly delayed. As it reported:"To our Correspondents. Hermes came too late for insertion this month. Our customers will excuse us, though the day of publication be sometimes delayed: The great difficulty we have procuring printing paper, renders it impossible for us to publish always on the first Wednesday of the month [July 3]."That left enough time for the last-minute addition of the news of Independence."July 2. this day the Hon. Continental Congress declared the UNITED COLONIES FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES."Likely appearing on July 4 or 5, this is one of the first reports of independence found in any publication. (The Pennsylvania Evening Post printed the resolution on the night of July 2; we know of no other publication at the time.) Had their paper delivery been delayed only a day or two more, theMagazine would have mentioned the July 4 Declaration of Independence. Instead, that appears in the July issue, which was printed in the first few days of August.Other NewsMaking paper: "As Paper is become an article of considerable importance and scarcity, the following account of the manner of making paper in Japan, of the barks of shrubs and trees, may not be unacceptable to the public. From this t, perhaps, some American artists may discover a similar method of manufacturing that useful commodity." (p259-62)The colony of South Carolina breaks away from Britain and establishes its own government: "South Carolina In Congress, Whereas the British Parliament, claiming of late years a right to bind the North-American Colonies by law, in all cases whatsoever, have enacted statutes for raising a revenue in those colonies, and disposing of such revenue as they thought proper, without the consent, and against the will of the colonists." The Resolution goes on to say that the British have incited unrest, taken the property of colonists, and killed and wounded many "to effect the ruin and destruction of the colonies." (p289-93)New York breaks away from Britain. A report headed, "In Provincial Congress, May 31," details the separation of the Colony and election of new officials. (p294)New Jersey resolves to stop paying the Colonial Governor, William Franklin. Lengthy report from Burlington with the Governor's address and the Colonists' reaction. (p294-95)The Pennsylvania Delegation meeting in Philadelphia writes a Declaration against the King and England, proclaims itself independent, and resolves to raise companies of soldiers to defend its new freedom. (p296)In the column immediately preceding the news, the text of Pennsylvania's own declaration of independence reads in part: "Whereas George the Third. in violation of the principles of the British constitution, and of the laws of justice and humanity. We the Deputies of the people of Pennsylvania, assembled in full Pr. (See website for full description). Magazine.

First edition, first issue of Volume II of the Journals of Congress with the rare Aitken imprint and the first Congressional printing of the Declaration of Independence (found on pages 241-246). Aiken took over the printing of the Journals from Bradford before the 1776 Bradford edition had reached the printing of the Declaration… of Independence, thus making this the first. Octavo (8 3/4 x 5 1/2 inches; 222 x 140 mm). [2], 513, [22, index], [1, blank] pp. Rebacked in old quarter parchment over contemporary drab boards. Pages uncut. Boards with some minor wear. Pages with some occasional and expected toning. Overall a very good copy. "Robert Aitken was licensed by Congress to publish the Journals on 26 September 1776. Volume I of the series comprised reprints of his "Cartridge Paper" edition, the monthly issues which covered the first four months of 1776; the present volume II included the first publication of the June-December Journals, and came off the press the following year. According to Aitken, 532 copies were printed, but when Congress had to flee from Philadelphia in the autumn of 1777 Aitken's press was lost and many copies were seemingly left behind and destroyed by the British.The volume records some of the most tumultuous events of the Revolution, and the text of the Declaration appears in full, with the names of the signers, on pages 241-246." (From Bonhams). In March of 1776, after the printers the Bradfords of Philadelphia's work of printing the previous transcripts of Congress were deemed unsatisfactory, "Robert Aitken now makes his first appearance upon the scene as a printer of Congressional proceedings. Beginning the work where the Bradfords left off, and without express order of Congress other than such sanction as he may have received from their printing committee, he published the Journals in monthly subdivisions from January to May, 1776, inclusive. Aitken had now found favor in the eyes of Congress, and on September 26, 1776 the committee appointed to superintend the publication of the Journals were instructed to employ him to reprint the Journals from the beginning, with all possible expedition, and to continue to print the same. The Congress agreed to purchase of him five hundred copies when printed, and Aitken was further directed to purchase from the Bradfords, on reasonable terms and at the expense of Congress, such parts of the Journal as they had printed but had not yet published. In pursuance of this order and under the supervision of the printing committee, Aitken, in the spring of 1777, issued what he termed a "New Edition" of the Journal of Congress in two volumes; the first containing the proceedings for 1774 and 1775 and the second those of 1776. This became the authoritative edition for those years and has always been followed whenever reprinted." (The Journals and Papers of the Continental Congress By Herbert Friedenwald, pg 15-17). Pp.1-424 were later reissued as part of: 'Journals of Congress. . Volume II'. York-Town [Pennsylvania], printed by John Dunlap, 1778. The Aitken imprint of this present copy is far more rare.
