Hardback. Condition: Very good. This volume brings Jefferson into retirement after his tenure as Secretary of State and returns him to private life at Monticello. He professes his desire to be free of public responsibilities and live the life of a farmer, spending his time tending to his estates. Turning his attention to the improvement of his farms and finances, Jefferson surveys his fields, experiments with crop rotation, and establishes a nailery on Mulberry Row. He embarks upon an ambitious plan to renovate Monticello, a long-term task that will eventually transform his residence.Although Jefferson is distant from Philadelphia, the seat of the federal government, he is not completely divorced from the politics of the day. His friends, especially James Madison, with whom he exchanges almost sixty letters in the period covered by this volume, keep him fully informed about the efforts of Republican county and town meetings, the Virginia General Assembly, Congress, and the press to counter Federalist policies. An emerging Republican opposition is taking shape in response to the Jay Treaty, and Jefferson is keenly interested in its progress. Although in June, 1795, he claims to have 'proscribed newspapers' from Monticello, in fact he never entirely cuts himself off from the world. At the end of that year, he takes pains to ensure that he will have two full sets of Benjamin Franklin Bache's Aurora, the influential Republican newspaper, one set to be held in Philadelphia for binding and one to be sent directly to Heavy - extra postage will apply; Ex Library 742 pages.

Condition: Very Good. During the thirteen months covered by this volume, Thomas Jefferson spent more than half of his time in Philadelphia serving as vice president under President John Adams and presiding over a Senate that was dominated by his political opponents, the Federalists. Debates in Congress took place against a backdrop of bitter partisan rivalry, characterized most famously by the near-brawl on the floor of the House between Matthew Lyon and Roger Griswold. Congress and the nation waited, in a 'state of extraordinary suspense,' for dispatches from the American envoys in France. When the accounts of the XYZ Affair became public, the nation prepared for war. Two days after the Alien Friends Act was signed into law Jefferson left for Monticello, stopping at Montpelier to convey the latest news to James Madison. Disheartened and frustrated by the Alien and Sedition Acts, Jefferson penned the famous resolutions adopted in November by the Kentucky legislature. He kept his authorship a secret, however, seeking to avoid any appearance of 'rashness' by Republicans. This endeavor reflected his struggle to make sense of the political direction of the nation in times he could neither comprehend nor accept.Jefferson continued to engage in scientific pursuits and fulfill his role as a promoter of American science and learning. He was reelected to the presidency of the American Philosophical Society, to which he presented his paper on the moldboard plow. He corresponded on American Indian languages, astronomy, and the Anglo-Saxon language. He longed for Monticello, and, as Jefferson had learned before, his property fell into neglect when he was away on public business. Renovations to the house slowed, supplies for the nailery were disrupted, and he had to arrange for the sale of his crops through intermediaries. With the prices of wheat low, he was drawn back into financial dependence on tobacco. Ex Lib; heavy - extra postage will apply 812 pages.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Small 4to. Tan cloth with extensive wraparound black, green and brown pictorial stamping. 375pp. Numerous illustrations (1 tipped-in color, 2 foldouts). Fine. First edition of the third volume of the "New Colophon," a continuation of the original "Colophon" begun in 1928. Among the "Who's Who" of bookish folk who contribute these 32 essays on a huge range of bookish topics are Randolph G. Adams, Jacob Blanck, Jean Hersholt, Philip Hofer, Vincent Starrett, and John T. Winterich. Best of all, this lovely copy bears a meaty Typed Letter Signed from contributor Boyd B. Stutler (1889-1970), a preeminent West Virginia scholar of John Brown and the Civil War, tipped in facing the title page -- a unique frontispiece of sorts. (Stutler's article "The Transformations of "Young Kate" appears on pages 222-27.) 1p, 8½" X 11", Charleston, WV, 24 March 1969. Addressed to Arnold F. Gates (1914-93, noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar). Near fine. Two original folds. On his imprinted letterhead, Stutler fills this page with meaty, detailed, single-space content chock full of typos (which he corrects in ink). Stutler gossips about Civil War-related things, the journal "Civil War History" and "Lincoln Herald." The subject of his main renown, John Brown, comes up too: "The city of Kent [Ohio], as you know, is John Brown's old Franklin Mills, where he went broke promoting an addition to it. In that instance he was just forty years ahead of his time." And later: "Today comes a letter from a publisher at Weston, Massachusetts, who says he is reprinting John Brown's Constitution, with introductory notes, and asked permission to use my article, 'John Brown's Constitution,' published in Lincoln Herald in the December 1948 number. Of course I am pleased to tell him to use any or all of the screed." Also discusses an upcoming reprint of his 1926 article on the Kinnan Indian massacre. A superb content letter, signed simply "Boyd" in black ballpoint.
