One of the most important books on the history of America (cited by Borba de Moraes, Howes, Sabin and Wing), the 1671 first edition of ”America: Being the Latest and Most Accurate Description of the New World”. Privately printed in London by the author, Arnoldus Montanus, and edited by John Ogilby. In ”America” Montanus goes into great detail of the new continents, with dozens of engravings of Native Americans, species of animals and reptiles, and the landscapes and settlements in the new world, accompanied by text. The book covers speculation regarding the earliest voyages to America, along with later recorded voyages and the settlements of New Netherlands/New York, New England, Hudson’s Bay, Labrador, Canada, Nova Scotia, Maryland, Virginia, (including Captain Smith’s capture and rescue by Pocahontas), Carolinas, Florida and California, plus accounts of Mexico and nearby islands, even including Australia and New Zealand. 674pp. book contains 75 original engravings (64 copper plates within the text and 9 plates throughout), lacking the maps and 28 engravings, which is typical as this edition is almost never found with all plates intact. All text is complete except for missing pages 445-446. Large format book measures 10” x 15”. Bound in original full leather boards, with some loss of leather to covers, cracking along spine and front board detached. Interior text is near fine and very readable. An important and fascinating addition to early knowledge of the American continent. Sold for $9,375.

Upton Sinclair signed first printing of “The Jungle” published by The Jungle Publishing Co.: New York: 1906. All first printing points present: “brass buttons” on page 42; “eight dollars” on page 82; unbroken type on “1” on copyright page; and normal-sized “3” on page 385. This copy does not have the “Sustainers Edition” label apparent on the front pastedown (normally signifying first printing), but two bookplates are there, which may be concealing the label or the reason it was removed. Presentation copy, inscribed by Sinclair on the front free endpaper to Christian Socialist activist, Dr. George D. Herron: “To Geo. D. Herron with sincerest gratitude + affection from the Author [underlined] / Princeton N.J. Feb 17th ’06.” Inscription is dated eleven days before the book’s publication to a prominent Socialist contemporary of Sinclair’s.

Evidence of sticker removal on rear pastedown, blocks of toning to verso of front free endpaper and first blank. Bookplates of Americana and Bret Harte collector Willard S. Morse on both pastedowns (the plate on the rear pastedown seems to be an identification plate from his library, with manuscript notes in an unknown hand), and the bookplate of famed surgeon, Dr. Elmer Belt, also on the front pastedown. A very good copy, and an excellent association copy, with a fine inscription to a fellow socialist. Sold for $2,800.
