Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good-. First Edition Thus. xi, (1), 289 pages; Secure in original green cloth binding with entirely faded gilt lettering at spine; a bit of damp ripple to lower edge of leaves (no adhesion) and tide marks at bottom of the dark green endpapers; still a decent example with the ownership stamp and a few pencil annotations by the historian J.C. Furnas. OCLC 457390253 Unusually, this example of Freeman's Some Impressions of the U.S. has a preliminary leaf bound in with the title Lecture to American Audiences with the imprint of Porter and Coates, Philadelphia. Interesting conversation between the author and an American professor regarding "Where do you write your works?" Freeman replies "In my own house, to be sure." The American professor replies "[but] you can't have the rare books and curious manuscripts; you must be always going to the British Museum?" Freeman: "all the important books for my period were printed, I had them all around me in my own not wonderfully large library, it was the rarest thing for me in writing my history to need a book that was not in my library, . I had never in my life made use of the British Museum library, and not very often the Bodlein." Furnas provides the comment "Amazes me, too!" in the margin. PROVENANCE: Most recently from the collection of J. C. Furnas (Joseph Chamberlain Furnas), author of The Americans: A Social History of the United States, 1587-1914 and of How America Lives, with his stamp on titlepage. This book was likely source material for Furnas' own works. Front pastedown endpaper bears the heraldic bookplate [Firmus et Fidelis] of James D[avid] Marwick (1826-1908), a Scottish lawyer, historian and town clerk. He served as Town Clerk of Glasgow for thirty-one years, during which time the entire city was transformed. Its powers and amenities were improved by by-laws and Acts of Parliament, and Marwick directed the city of Glasgow's development for much of the second half of the 19th century. Marwick was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1864. He received the degree of LL.D. from Glasgow University in 1878. The Freedom of the Burgh of Kirkwall was conferred on him later, and in 1888, on the occasion of her visit to the first Glasgow Exhibition, Queen Victoria gave him a knighthood, this being the first time a municipal officer in Scotland was so honoured.
