Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Jacket has light shelf wear, bottom edge of jacket has slight chipping, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. Arthur Thurner's seminal work on the Michigan Copper Country strike of 1913-14 is an unflinching account of socialism and paternalism; violence and charity; racial animosity and assimilation; corruption and justice. The tragic story of Upper Michigan's great labor dispute is woven together delicately and expertly by Thurner, whose storytelling is at once riveting and scholarly, rising above the pitfalls of so many pop-historians still entangled in the lingering bitterness and paranoia of 1913-14.Even almost 30 years after its publication, "Rebels on the Range" still stands tall as a work of labor history and Copper Country history. An excellent book.

No Binding. Zustand: Good. Lithograph (318 × 420 mm), signed 'F N 1820' in the print; small holes in the left-hand margin, presumably from earlier stitching; corners slightly creased. One of Nicholson's Six lithographic Impressions of Sketches from Nature (1820). Michael Twyman writes: 'One artist who was attracted to lithography at this early stage was the well-known water-colour painter Francis Nicholson (17531844). He began working as a painter in oils, but became a frequent exhibitor with the Society of Painters in Water-Colour and was elected its president in 1813. Coming from Yorkshire, he specialised in a type of picturesque landscape readily found around him, and was particularly known for this kind of work. Though not amongst the greatest of the English water-colour school he was very successful in a commercial sense and also made important contributions to the technique of water-colour painting 'No established artist had yet turned to lithography in England, and certainly no one had let it interfere with the more important occupation to painting; but Nicholson virtually gave up "the practice of his own art" and devoted "much time to the advancement of lithography". The earliest prints of his that can be traced were published in 1820 were printed either by Hullmandel or by Rowney and Forster, a firm whose first productions also date from that year. These two firms were responsible for printing most of Nicholson's early drawings They are views of English scenery, particularly of his native Yorkshire Nicholson made lithographs for no major publication but he must have been about the most prolific lithographer of the period; one contemporary writer estimates his output of drawings on the stone as not much under 800' (pp. 189190). Cf. Abbey, Life 161 (for another part in the series). According to Library Hub Discover, there were 36 'plates' in all.
