Covers are clean and intact except for moderate fading or sunning (most noticeable along spine and edges). A Very Good copy. Part of the "Academic Reprints Series." Fascinating paper by Herbert E. Bolton containing his thesis that missions were frontier institutions of Spanish-American colonies. He addresses a number of subjects in connection to his thesis. Bolton argues that missionaries were instrumental in Spanish colonization (alongside conquistadors and presidial soldiers) and the spread of Spanish culture in the Western world. He focuses his paper on northern Spanish colonies "from Sinaloa to Texas, from Florida to California." He says that different colonizing countries had different "frontier agents" who colonized North America through their policies and actions. For example, of Spain, he says its frontier agents were missionaries, conquistadors, and soldiers. Of France, Bolton says that fur trappers and traders were its frontier agents. Of the United States, Bolton says its frontier agents were fur trappers and settlers. Bolton argues that "[i]n respect to the native, Spanish sovereigns, from the outset, had three fundamental purposes. They desired to convert him, to civilize him, and to exploit him." Bolton portrays the missions and the pueblos or villages they were a part of as political institutions that simultaneously exploited Indigenous Peoples while having an evangelical and humanitarian intent. Bolton explains how the encomienda (land trust) system and its ruling encomendaros (secular landowners) were eventually replaced by missions and missionaries to combat corruption and extreme exploitation of Indigenous Peoples. While exploitation still happened in the mission system, Bolton says that missionaries were viewed by the Spanish sovereigns as diplomatic figures who curtailed corruption and doubled as political, frontier agents spreading Spanish policies and culture. Bolton mentions the travels of several Spanish missionaries, such as Kino and Friar Marcos, who traveled alone for manny miles to complete their mission work. Bolton also describes some of the missions that succeeded and failed, some of the daily life aspects of specific missions, and the treatment and expectations of Indigenous Peoples at missions by Spanish missionaries and soldiers. Herbert E. Bolton (1870-1953) was an American historian and professor who specialized in the study of Spanish-Ameircan history. He taught as a history professor at the University of Texas (1901-1909) and University of California, Berkeley (c. 1911-1944). Bolton also served as chair of UC Berkeley's history department for twenty-two years and was the founding director of the Bancroft Library. He is widely credited for being a key figure in making the Bancroft Library the eminent research center it is today.…

[xxiv], 25-351pp. An Exceptionally Scarce and Highly Desirable Edition of Alice's Adventures, Representing a High Point for Modern Library Collectors. 1924-1925 saw the transition from Modern Library from Boni & Liveright to Modern Library Inc. after Bennet Cerf & Donald Clopfer, 2 years before the pair founder Random House. Alice's Adventures. was first included in the Modern Library during this transition, with copies from 1924 and 1925 featuring a 1924 Boni & Liveright Copyright. This edition, with sheets which may be the same printed for the First Modern Library Edition, is bound in a Toledano Type 4 Binding with Bernhard Endpapers. The First ML copies were in Type 3 Bindings with Brodzky Endpapers. Neither Andes nor Toledano note the existence of a copy with the later adopted "First Modern Library" signifier on the copyright page. Other catalogers have suggested that only the 1924 edition of the work (with a B&L imprint) feature the long-necked illustration of Alice. This illustration is present in the edition we are offering here, and in copies from 1934 with an updated pictorial dust jacket. We know of no other copies from 1924 nor 1925 with an original dust jacket. Publisher's Flexible Green Cloth, Stamped Gilt Detailing, Bernhard Endpapers. Drawings by John Tenniel (illustratore).…
