Multiple Authors Critical and Social Essays Reprinted from the New York Nation
New York Leypoldt & Holt 1867 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Very Good+
12mo; iv, 230 & (4, ads) pages; Publisher's dark green cloth, with beveled edges to the boards, title lettered in gilt on the spine and front cover, gilt publisher's device at the foot of the spine. Chocolate brown endpapers. Essays from the New York Nation founded by the Irish-born American journalist and editor Edwin Lawrence Godkin (1831-1902). In planning the new weekly publication, E. L. Godkin was joined by fellow abolishionists Charles Eliot Norton and James Miller McKim, who helped gather contributions from many progressive writers of the period. Godkin remained editor of his "Nation" until the end of the year 1899, even though in 1881 he sold the Nation to the New York Evening Post. According to The Nation's founding prospectus of 1865, "The Nation will not be the organ of any party, sect, or body. It will, on the contrary, make an earnest effort to bring to the discussion of political and social questions a really critical spirit, and to wage war upon the vices of violence, exaggeration and misrepresentation by which so much of the political writing of the day is marred." The Nation is still in existence, after many difficulties, various owners, and anger directed towards it by various pillars of the establishment. It is now the oldest continuously published weekly magazine in the United States. The periodical, devoted to politics and culture, is self-described as "the flagship of the left." This handsome gathering of articles from the first 18 months of "The Nation" was published by Leypoldt & Holt, a firm founded in 1866 by Frederick Leypoldt and Henry Holt. Initially, this firm specialized in translations from foreign books. Indeed, almost simultaneously with this little book, the firm published the first English translation of Ivan Turgenev's "Fathers and Sons" (issued in a nearly identical format to this tidy volume). In fact, the two works appear, with one other, on a leaf of 'Seasonable New Books' included in the publisher's ads at the rear). In 1868, Leypoldt decided to devote his future efforts to bibliography. He founded the periodical that eventually became "Publisher's Weekly, and others. By 1873, the firm had become Henry Holt and Company. A splendid copy, tight, clean and sound, with the neat pencil signature of H. C. Angell dated 1868 on the front blank leaf. There are three tiny spots (of ink?) on the spine, but the binding is otherwise virtually unworn, even at the edges.
