[JONES, HERSCHEL V.]

Adventures in Americana 1492-1897. The romance of voyage and discovery from Spain to the Indies, the Spanish Main, and North America; inland to the Ohio country; on toward the Mississippi; through to California; over Chilkoot Pass to the gold fields of Alaska. Being a selection of books from the library of Herschel V. Jones, Minneapolis, Minnesota. With a preface by Wilberforce Eames.

New York, William Edwin Rudge, 1928. Accompanied by the supplemental third volume: Americana collection of Herschel V. Jones. A check-list [1473-1926] compiled by Wilberforce Eames, New York: privately printed by William E. Rudge's Sons, 1938. Together 3 volumes, folio, edition limited to 200 copies, numerous facsimiles throughout, a fine set in orig. black cloth gilt, t.e.g., first two volumes in the publisher's box. Jones (1861-1928) bought The Minneapolis Journal in 1908 and he remained associated with that paper for the rest of his life. He is perhaps best remembered, however, as a bibliophile, and among other collections, assembled one of the greatest collections of Americana ever, here memorialized and described in detail.

[JONES, HERSCHEL V.]

Adventures in Americana 1492-1897. The romance of voyage and discovery from Spain to the Indies, the Spanish Main, and North America; inland to the Ohio country, on toward the Mississippi; through to California…to the gold fields of Alaska. Being a selection of books from the library of Herschel V. Jones, Minneapolis, Minnesota. With a preface by Dr. Wilberforce Eames.

New York, Cooper Square Publishers, Inc., 1964. Originally published 1928, offered with the supplementary volume A Check- List of the Americana Collection of Herschel V. Jones (orig. published 1938); together, 3 volumes, small folio, 300 fine illustrations of title- pp., covers, woodcuts, etc.; generally a fine set in publisher's full brown buckram, gilt lettering on spine. Jones (1861-1928) served as publisher of the Minneapolis Journal from 1908 and, as these vols. attest, was a sagacious collector of Americana. Although he began selling his collection at auction in 1916, his personal library was held after his death until 1939 when it was sold to the dealer Rosenbach and then dispersed.

Aesop's Fables

Barnes & Noble Classics 2003, Reprint, Paperback. . 9781593080624 Barnes & Noble Classics Series; 0.9 x 7.9 x 5.1 Inches; Aesop's Fables, by Aesop , is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of Barnes & Noble Classics: All editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences?biographical, historical, and literary?to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. As legend has it, the storyteller Aesop was a slave who lived in ancient Greece during the sixth century B.C. His memorable, recountable fables have brought amusing characters to life and driven home thought-provoking morals for generations of listeners and modern-day readers. Translated into countless languages and familiar to people around the world, Aesop’s fables never tarnish despite being told again and again. This collection presents nearly 300 of Aesop’s most entertaining and enduring stories?from ?The Hare and the Tortoise” and ?The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse” to ?The Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs” and ?The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing.” Populated by a colorful array of animal characters who personify every imaginable human type?from fiddling grasshoppers and diligent ants to sly foxes, wicked wolves, brave mice, and grateful lions?these timeless tales are as fresh and relevant today as when they were first created. Full of humor, insight, and wit, the tales in Aesop’s Fables champion the value of hard work and perseverance, compassion for others, and honesty. They are age-old wisdom in a delicious form, for the consumption of adults and children alike. D. L. Ashliman is emeritus professor at the University of Pittsburgh. He taught folklore, mythology, German, and comparative literature at that institution for thirty-one years. He has also served as guest professor at the University of Augsburg in Germany.. Fine.
