Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A city gathers to remember, and to decide what deserves saving. Listen to 1844 Baltimore speak.In this First Discourse before the Maryland Historical Society, Charles Frederick Mayer delivers a poised historical society address from the heart of antebellum Maryland, capturing the cadence and convictions of an 1840s American lecture. Presented here as a complete speech transcript, it stands as an American public oration with lasting interest: part Maryland history discourse, part archival preservation essay, and part window into early American historiography as it was being shaped in public, civic rooms. Read it for its sense of occasion, its argument for memory, and its clear-minded view of why records, artefacts, and stories must be gathered before they vanish.As a primary source edition drawn from historical society proceedings, this discourse rewards more than one kind of reader. Casual history lovers will find a vivid, local voice and a ceremonial energy; researchers will recognise touchpoints for Maryland genealogy research and the broader culture of collecting that underpins so many archives. It also sits naturally beside any commemorative orations collection, tracing how nineteenth-century Americans performed history as much as they wrote it.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
