Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book re-evaluates the advantages of emigration to the Western United States in the early 1800s, as promoted by various contemporary accounts, such as Morris Birkbeck's "Letters from Illinois." The author, a resident of central Pennsylvania, counters the ideas of a better life in the West, grounding his arguments in an insightful examination of the environmental, economic, and health-related drawbacks of settling on the prairies and other rich bottom lands. Drawing on his experience as a farmer, the author presents an alternative vision of prosperity achievable with better management of moderately fertile ridge lands in the East. The book delves into various agricultural, climatic, and economic themes, offering a critical analysis of the overselling of westward expansion and emphasizing the benefits of sustainable land practices, health considerations, and realistic assessments of economic opportunities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. First Edition. Two works bound as one. 8vo. Red cloth spine and corners over pebbled cloth. 1) vii, 144 pages + VII plates. Chemical Manipulations by Wissner. 1883 2) iv, 40 pages. Instruction in Photography by Major Lorenzo Lorain. 1882. Cloth. Two unusual titles, both scarce, with OCLC showing only four physical copies of each title as of this writing. "Chemical Manipulations" is intended as a manual for use in the laboratory, and covers much ground, containing a brief summary of the Principles of Chemistry and Chemical Analysis, and part II contains the Special Analyses prescribed in the Programme of Instruction. "Instruction in photography" reviews various processes (both theoretical and practical) and contains useful "short examples" where there is a stated problem with printing for instance, and possible reasons and solutions are presented. As with many military manuals, these are focused on practical considerations for the military rather than theory accessible only to the elite.…
