‎Progress and Poverty. An Inquiry into the Cause of Industrial Depressions, and of Increase of Want with Increase of Wealth - the Remedy. Author's Edition. - [""UNDOUBTEDLY THE MOST REMARKABLE AND IMPORTANT BOOK OF THE PRESENT CENTURY""]‎

‎San Francisco, Wm M.Hinton & Co, 1879. 8vo. In the original full cloth binding with gilt lettering to spine and a bit of blindstamping to boeards. A bit of light spotting to front board, spine faded, and capitals worn. Hinges internally a bit weak, and a professional closed tear to cloth at spine, barely noticeable. All in all an excellent copy in this fragile original binding. Internally very nice and clean. With the bookplate of Grove L. Johnson to inside of front board. (4), 512 pp.‎

‎The exceedingly scarce first edition, printed in merely 200 copies (namely the ""Author's edition), of one of the most influential books ever published. Henry George's masterpiece of social reform, ""Progress and Poverty"", founded the ideology known as ""Georgism"", from which the worldwide social reform movement arose. The work initiated the Progressive Era and had a larger impact and ""a wider distribution than almost all other books on political economy put together"", as John Dewey put it (John Dewey's Foreword to Geiger's ""The Philosophy of Henry George"" (1933)). ""The present century has been marked by a prodigious increase in wealth-producing power. The utilization of steam and electricity, the introduction of improved processes and labor-saving machinery, the greater subdivision and grander scale of production, the wonderful facilitation of exchanges, have multiplied enormously the effectiveness of labor.At the beginning of this marvelous era it was natural to expect, and it was expected, that labor-saving inventions would lighten the toil and improve the condition of the laborer"" that the enormous increase in the power of producing wealth would make real poverty a thing of the past"", is how Henry George introduces his grandiose work of social reform. But though people naturally expected labor-saving inventions to improve working- and living conditions for all, quite the opposite was the case. As towns and cities grew - and grow - and new technologies continually improve methods of production and exchange, so misery, poverty and crime continued - and continues - to increase. Henry George magnificently pointed out the association of progress with poverty and how that precisely came to be the cause of our social and political difficulties. He pointed out, how this problem, if unsolved, would mean the downfall of civilization. And he provided the remedy - ""Deduction and induction have brought us to the same truth: Unequal ownership of land causes unequal distribution of wealth. And because unequal ownership of land is inseparable from the recognition of individual property in land, it necessarily follows that there is only one remedy for the unjust distribution of wealth: we must make land common property."" More precisely, Henry George proposed a single tax on land values.Henry George's revolutionary first book, ""Progress and Poverty"" sold millions of copies and became a world-wide bestseller. In sales, it exceeded all other books except the Bible during the 1890s. The first edition, however, was only printed in 200 copies, designated ""Author's Edition"" and is very scarce - not least in the original binding.""During the 1890s George, author of the 1879 bestseller Progress and Poverty, was the third most famous American, after Mark Twain and Thomas Edison. In 1896 he outpolled Teddy Roosevelt and was nearly elected mayor of New York.""""When Progress and Poverty first came out in 1879, it started a worldwide reform movement that in the US manifested in the fiercely anti-corporate Populist Movement in the 1880s and later the Progressive Movement (1900-1920). Many important anti-corporate reforms came out of this period, including the Sherman Antitrust Act (1890), a constitutional amendment allowing Americans to elect the Senate by popular vote (prior to 1913 the Senate was appointed by state legislators), and the country's first state-owned bank, The Bank of North Dakota (1919)."" (Stuart Jeanne Bramhall: Karl Marx vs Henry George, 2013).And the work continued to exercise its enormous influence throughout the Western world. According to a survey among British parliamentarians in 1906, the work was more popular than Walter Scott, John Stuart Mill, and William Shakespeare, and there is almost no end to the line of famous thinkers, who describe ""Progress and Poverty"" as life-changing, including George Bernard Shaw, Friedrich Hayek, H. G. Wells, and Leo Tolstoy, who like Winston Churchill, John Dewey, Bertrand Russell and many others claimed that it was impossible to refute Henry George on the land question. Philip Wicksteed characterized the book as ""by far the most important work in its social consequences that our generation or century [1882] has seen"", Alfred Russel Wallace hailed it as ""undoubtedly the most remarkable and important book of the present century,"" and placed it above Darwin's ""Origin of Species"", Albert Einstein concluded ""Men like Henry George are rare unfortunately. One cannot imagine a more beautiful combination of intellectual keenness, artistic form and fervent love of justice. Every line is written as if for our generation"", etc., etc. PROVENANCE: Grove Lawrence Johnson (1841 -1926) was an American attorney and politician from California. In addition to serving in both houses of the state legislature, Johnson also served as a United States Representative.‎

‎Kolhosp Tvaryn(i.e. “a Collective Farm of Animals” - being Animal Farm). - [FIRST UKRANIAN TRANSLATION OF ANIMAL FARM - WITH THE ONLY SURVIVING PREFACE TO THE WORK BY ORWELL HIMSELF]‎

‎(Munich), Prometheus, (1947). Original printed pictorial wrappers. In excellent condition with just slight edge wear and a small bump to upper capital. Internally also en very nice condition. Bookseller stamp to front free end-paper: Ukranian Book Store, Edmonton, Alberta. With portrait of Orwell after the preface.‎

‎Scarce first edition of the first Ukrainian translation of Animal Farm, being the only edition of Orwell’s masterpiece with a personal preface written by the author. Needless to say, Animal Farm constitutes one of the most important literary works of the 20th century. The satirical-political masterpiece magnificently reflects the events leading up to the Russian Revolution and brilliantly caricatures Stalinism. As Orwell himself put it, with this work, he deliberately tried ""to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole"". (Orwell, ""Why I Write""). Animal Farm brilliantly portrays not only the corruption of the revolution, but also how traits of human character themselves corrupt society. The greatest flaw of revolution is not the corrupt leadership on its own, but also the greed, indifference, ignorance, shortsightedness, wickedness, etc. that govern the individuals that make up the masses. George Orwell’s (1903-1950) Animal Farm was translated into Ukrainian by Ihor Ševcenko (1922-2009) – a Polish-born Ukrainian scholar, at the time residing in Germany – under the pseudonym Ivan Cherniatyns’kyi. The book was published by the Ukrainian publisher Prometheus in Munich in 1947. The Ukrainian title, Kolhosp Tvaryn (i.e. eng.: “A Collective Farm of Animals”) – a reference to Stalin’s collective farms (kolkhozy) – is deliberately not a literal translation, and “[a] brief examination of Ševcenko’s translation reveals that while his choices were distinctly loyal to the original English text, they simultaneously deepen the political allegory and expand the fairy tale tradition of the novel by domesticating certain aspects of the text through specific references to the Soviet Union and Ukrainian folktales.” (Gor, 2025, p. 18). The text “offered momentary solidarity, unity, and comfort to displaced Ukrainians through its loyal translation and parallel intentions between the source text and the translation” (Gor, 2025, pp. 3-4). At the time of the publication of Animal Farm, Ševcenko was regularly participating in the intellectual spheres of the Ukrainian Displaced Persons camps in Munich. There, he began sight-translating (i.e. without preparation) Animal Farm for camp residents. In April 1946, he wrote to Orwell requesting permission to publish the novel in Ukrainian. Among other things, he wrote to Orwell that ""‘Soviet refugees were my listeners. The effect was striking. They approved of almost all your interpretations. They were profoundly affected by such scenes as that of animals singing ""Beasts of England"" on the hill. Here I saw that apart from their attention being primarily drawn on detecting ""concordances"" between the reality they lived in and the tale, they visibly reacted to the absolute values of the book, to the tale types, to the underlying convictions of the author and so on. Besides, the mood of the book seems to correspond with their own actual state of mind... [T]he attitude of the Western World in many recent issues roused serious doubts among our refugees, who wondered how it were possible that nobody “knew the truth”’...Your bookhas solved the problem."" (Szewczenko to Orwell, 11 April 1946, XVIII, 236). Orwell immediately agreed to the translation, refused any royalties, and later also agreed to write a preface for it (Tatara, 2012"" Gor, 2025, p. 14). ""Although ‘frightfully busy’ Orwell did write this preface, which forever remained his most detailed explanation of the motives behind the “fairy story”. (Masha Karp: On the Ukranian Trnaslation of Animal Farm, the Orwell Foundation, 2022). The Ukrainian edition is especially interesting, not only because of its genesis, but also because it is the only edition of Orwell’s masterpiece with a personal preface written by the author, with the most detailed explanation of the motives behind the Animal Farm. In this context, it is worth noting that Orwell’s original version of the preface in English has been lost, and the only version surviving is the one he wrote for the Ukrainian translation. For the first edition in English, Orwell had intended to include his essay “Freedom of the Press” as a preface, but this was possibly rejected by the publishers. Overall, Orwell faced many obstacles when first publishing Animal Farm: It was rejected for almost a year by publishers, afraid of the criticism of England’s Soviet ally (Gor, 2025), and a preface never appeared. The small Ukranian printing press Promethius managed a print-run of 5.000 copies of the first edition of the Ukranian translation, but a mere 2.000 ended up being distributed throughout DP camps in and around Munich. The remaining copies were confiscated by the US military, who feared that it would be considered anti-Soviet propaganda and would jepardize the relationship with Stalin as the ally, who had helped defeat Hitler. The Americans thus handed over the confiscated copies to the Soviet authorities, who desctroyed them. Animal Farm was written between late 1943 and early 1944, when the wartime alliance with the Soviet Union was at its height and Stalin was held in highest esteem in Britain, among both the people and intelligentsia. Not surprisingly, it was initially rejected by both British and American publishers, and the publication of it was thus delayed. When it did appear, it became a great commercial success, however, probably not least due to the soon to follow Cold War. In his Ukranian preface, Orwell explains that 'It was of the utmost importance to me that people in Western Europe should see the Soviet régime for what it really was. Since 1930 I had seen little evidence that the USSR was progressing towards anything that one could truly call Socialism. On the contrary, I was struck by clear signs of its transformation into a hierarchical society, in which the rulers have no more reason to give up their power than any other ruling class. ""Having explained ‘why ‘totalitarianism is completely incomprehensible… to the workers and intelligentsia in a country like England’, Orwell named as the aim of his book ‘the destruction of the Soviet myth …essential’, he insisted, ‘for a revival of the Socialist movement’. (Orwell Foundation, 2022). The work is generally considered one of the best and most influential literary productions of the 20th century. The original subtitle ""A Fairy Story"" was dropped when the book was published in the United States, and all but one of the translations omitted it. References: Chalupa, Andrea (2012, March 7).

‎Chicago, American Medical Association, 1926. 8vo. Offprint in the original printed wrappers. Previous owner's name to top right corner of front wrapper. A very fine and clean copy. 19 pp.‎

‎First printing, in the scarce offprint, of Minot and Murphy's seminal Nobel Prize winning paper which ""ranks as one of the greatest modern advances in [anemia] therapy."" (GM). Minot and Murphy shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1934 with George Whipple ""for their discoveries concerning liver therapy in cases of anaemia"". ""The brilliant discovery by Minot and Murphy in 1926, demonstrating the dramatic effectiveness of liver preparations in pernicious anemia, forms one of the landmarks in the history of therapeutics."" (Satoskar, Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics).""Prompted by pathologist George Whipple's research on the feeding of liver to anemic dogs, Minot and Murphy fed liver to their patients. In a now famous 1926 paper [the present], they announced its miraculous benefits for forty-five otherwise doomed souls."" (Wailoo, Drawing Blood: technology and Disease Identity in Twentieth-Century America). Up until the 1920'ies, pernicious anemia (also known as ""blood thinning"" disease) was a fatal disease, for which there was no cure. People who developed pernicious anemia - characterized by dangerously low counts of red blood cells - were left exhausted, hospitalized, and without the hope of being cured. ""Minot’s work and that of numerous pupils during the decade after 1926 initiated a new era in clinical hematology by replacing the largely morphologic studies of the blood and of the blood-forming and blood-destroying organs with dynamic measurements of their functions."" (DSB).In the early 1920s, most doctors believed that pernicious anemia was caused by a toxic substance in the body, and they prescribed doses of arsenic, transfusions, or removal of the spleen as treatments. But after these remedies were administered, patients had relapses, and death was inevitable. Across the world, 6,000 lives a year were lost to the scourge of pernicious anemia.""In 1923, Minot met William P. Murphy, who had graduated from Harvard Medical School in 1922 and who was to become an assistant instructor at Harvard Medical School in 1924. In their investigations to find a cure for pernicious anemia, Minot believed that research by George Whipple, a researcher whom he had known while both were at Johns Hopkins Hospital, was particularly significant. Whipple had completed experiments in which he bled dogs to make them anemic. Then he determined which foods restored their red blood cells. His results showed that red meat and certain vegetables were effective treatments, but liver was the best treatment. Minot wondered if Whipple's findings with dogs could be duplicated in humans. He and Murphy were determined to try it, and proceeded to do so with their private patients. Observing an increase in the patients' red blood cell counts, they thought they were on the right track, and decided to try the experiment with hospitalized patients which eventually led to their landmark discovery."" (The Harward University Gazette, 1998).After Minot and Murphy's verification of Whipple's results in 1926, pernicious anemia victims ate or drank at least one-half pound of raw liver, or drank raw liver juice, every day. This continued for several years, until a concentrate of liver juice became available.The active ingredient in liver remained unknown until 1948, when it was isolated by chemists Karl A. Folkers.Garrison & Morton: 3140‎

‎Rare second edition of one of the classic nineteenth-century works on Masonic symbolism. In a series of twelve lectures George Oliver examines and interprets the most important emblems, allegories and ritual symbols of Freemasonry, including the square and compasses, the sun and moon, the Temple of Solomon and the symbolic tools of the various degrees. Oliver’s writings were very influential in shaping the Victorian understanding of Masonic symbolism and the philosophical interpretation presenting Freemasonry as a moral and allegorical system rooted in biblical and ancient traditions. ""Oliver George (1782–1867), topographer and writer on freemasonry, was descended from an ancient Scottish family, some members of which came to England in the reign of James I, and were subsequently settled at Clipstone Park, Nottinghamshire. He was born at Papplewick, Nottinghamshire, on 5 Nov. 1782, and, after receiving a liberal education at Nottingham, he became in 1803 second master of the grammar school at Caistor, Lincolnshire. Six years afterwards he was appointed to the headmastership of King Edward's grammar school at Great Grimsby. He was ordained deacon in 1813, and priest in 1814" and in July 1815 Bishop Tomline collated him to the living of Clee, when his name was placed on the boards of Trinity College, Cambridge, by Dr. Bayley, subdean of Lincoln and examining chaplain to the bishop, as a 'ten-year man.' In the same year he was admitted as surrogate, and a steward of the clerical fund. He had been elected deputy past grand master of masons for Lincolnshire in 1832, and in 1840 he was appointed an honorary member of the grand lodge of Massachusetts, with the rank of deputy grand master.” (Dictionary of National Biography)‎

‎Ovid's Metamorphosis. Englished by G. S. - [THE EARLIEST ENGLISH POETRY WRITTEN IN THE NEW WORLD]‎

‎London, Robert Young, 1628. 12mo. Bound in a worn contemporary full calf binding. Gilt lines to spine and boards. Spine and boards rubbed and cracked, and corners bumped, but binding tight and sturdy. Notes to front free endpaper in a near-contemporary hand. Engraved title-page, nearly detached and torn through the center (reinforced from verso). Evenly browned, otherwise clean internally. (25), 445,(18) pp.‎

‎The exceedingly scarce second complete edition of the English poet and colonist George Sandys' celebrated translation of Ovid's 'Metamorphoses' (the first being London, 1626). In 1621 Sandys took up the post of treasurer of the colony of Virginia. By the time he reached Virginia, he had already completed a translation of the first five books (out of 15) of the 'Metamorphoses', which - according to tradition - was published in 1621" but with no surviving copies of this edition, its existence remains a matter of speculation. In 1947, however, a copy of what appears to be the second edition of this 'ghost', also printed in 1621, was found 'in a barrow in front of an obscure bookshop' (McManaway, 1948, 'The First Five Bookes of Ovids Metamorphosis, 1621, ""Englished by Master George Sandys""'). During his treasurership, he translated the remaining ten books and published a full translation in 1626 with William Stansby in London, the edition upon which the present is based. With the exception of the first five books, translated before he reached the US, Sandys' translation thus constitutes the earliest significant poetic output written in the New World. With only 11 copies recorded by OCLC, the present edition is by far the most uncommon of the complete editions.‎

‎First printing of Gamow's seminal paper in which he explained alfa-decay for the first time. By 1928, George Gamow had solved the theory of the alpha decay via tunneling. The alpha particle is trapped in a ""potential well"" by the nucleus. In classic physics, it is forbidden to escape, but according to the then newly discovered principles of quantum mechanics, it has a tiny (but non-zero) probability of ""tunneling"" through the barrier and appearing on the other side to escape the nucleus. Gamow solved a model potential for the nucleus and derived from first principles a relationship between the half-life of the decay, and the energy of the emission. Alpha particles were first described in the investigations of radioactivity by Ernest Rutherford in 1899.Parkinson 507.""One of the first applications of quantum tunneling was by the physicist George Gamow in 1928, soon after the development of quantum mechanics. Alpha particles, which consist of two protons and two neutrons, are emitted by some nuclei. For example, ordinary uranium, 238U, with a lifetime of 4.5 billion years, decays by emitting an alpha particle.For decades alpha decay had presented a problem: the emitted alpha particles seemed to have too little energy to get out of the nucleus. The Coulomb barrier arises from the combined effect of the Coulomb repulsion between the alpha particle and the nucleus (both positively charged) and the nuclear force that attracts the two particles. The energy of the emitted alpha particle is less than the top of this barrier. Classically, the particle would be unable to get out of the nucleus, but it obviously does.Gamow suggested that alpha particles tunnel through the barrier. If so, the half-life of the decay should depend on the width and height of the barrier, and it does: the lower and thinner the barrier, the greater the chance of penetrating it. As the alpha particle's energy increases, the particle sees both a lower and thinner barrier so the probability of getting through increases extremely rapidly. For example, the energies of the alphas emitted by 232Th and 212Po are 4.05 MeV and 8.95 MeV, respectively, while their respective half-lives are 14 billion years and 0.3 millionth of a second. Thus, a factor of about two in energy produces a difference in half-lives of sixteen orders of magnitude (that is, sixteen powers of ten)!""
