Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. A near-complete set of 205 bound volumes of monthly issues published between May 1872 to December 1976 (vols. 1-209), lacking only five volumes, and with all monthly issues dating after November 1900 with their printed wrappers bound in. All are bound in cloth or cloth over boards. Illustrated w…ith engraved frontispiece plates; plates and maps (some folded); and in-text wood-engravings, gravure and halftone photographs, diagrams, tables, etc. Founded in 1872 by the chemist and polymath Edward L. Youmans, *The Popular Science Monthly* was the leading American journal established to disseminate scientific knowledge to the educated layman. Youmans was associated with many of the world's leading liberal and progressive thinkers, ranging from Walt Whitman to Herbert Spencer, and his journal became an outlet for the writings and ideas of Spencer and other Continental scientists like Thomas Henry Huxley and Louis Pasteur, and for the rising generation of American philosophers like Charles Sanders Peirce, John Dewey, and William James, and psychologist James McKeen Cattell, who took over as editor in 1900. Among the many important first appearances are Peirce's series of eight papers published in 1877-78 under the series title: *Illustrations of the Logic of Science*; a series of two lectures by William James: *A Defense of Pragmatism* (published in March and April, 1907); and three papers by John Dewey: "Health and Sex in Higher Education" (March 1886), "The Chaos in Moral Training" (August 1894), and "Darwin's Influence upon Philosophy" (July 1909). Also notable are several articles on women's issues, of which we cite but three browsed at random: "Woman and Political Power" by Luke Owen Pike (May 1872), Grant Allen's "Plain Words on the Woman Question" (December 1889); and "Woman's Struggle for Liberty in Germany" by Mary Mills Patrick (January 1900). Among the many articles published after the magazine changed its format in 1915, we cite Hugh Fullerton's "Why Babe Ruth is the Greatest Home Run Hitter" (October 1921) as the best representative example of the type of article this award-winning magazine has published throughout the 20th Century and up through the present day. An ex-library set with intermittent markings that varied over time, including: ownership stamps (small ink and/or embossed stamps in the early volumes, some perforated stamps in the middle volumes, and ink stamps in the later volumes), and bookplates. Modest overall soiling to the cloth bindings, some of the early printed wraps are toned and/or detached (still present), a few volumes with small repairs to the endpapers, most volumes are very good or better. A very scarce near-complete set.

Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Very Good +. On offer is an interesting letter sent by Ethan A. Hitchcock, the U.S. Secretary of the Interior under Presidents William McKinley and Herbert H. D. Peirce, a the First Secretary of the U.S. Embassy in St. Petersburg, Russia. The letterhead reads, "Department of the Interior, Washington." and is dated, "…September 25, 1899." The letter is two pages long and concerns a few different subjects. Firstly, Mr. Hitchcock extends pleasantries towards Mr. Peirce, saying, "we are glad to know of the arrival of the Friesland, and presume that you and the family are safely established." He then lets gives a quick update to Mr. Peirce of his latest news, saying he returned home safely on the "good steamer St. Louis," but only after "just escaping, however, a severe hurricane of one day's duration." He writes that he will be leaving Washington soon "with the President and Cabinet for Chicago, and a further tour in the West." Finally, the longest paragraph records some frustration with the plans for the upcoming 1900 World's Fair in Paris (also known as the Exposition Universelle). Hitchcock writes that he found a recent letter by "Mr. Peck" to be "eminently unsatisfactory, as he does not seem to take hold of, or grasp the situation." The Mr. Peck, Hitchcock is referring to is Chicago businessman Ferdinand Peck, whom President William McKinley had chose as commissioner-general to the exposition. What Mr. Peck is failing to do could not be determined by me, but Hitchcock goes on to give some details, by asking Peirce to "write me a letter.to the State Department pointing out the opportunities and advantages of availing the goodwill and assistance of the Russian Government in this matter, with an explanation of the enormous advantages to our American exhibitors at Paris.something may be accomplished." Hitchcock finishes the paragraph by stating that "it does seem too bad to let such an opportunity for extending our commercial relations with Russia.fail for want of action." Hitchcock is clearly asking for Peirce's help in setting Ferdinand Peck straight. The letter is finished with warm regards and a signature by E. A. Hitchcock. The letter is two pages long, typed, and in very good condition. There is almost no age-toning of the letter whatsoever, and the ink is still dark and fresh-looking, especially the "Department of the Interior" letterhead. Mr. Hitchcock's signature is clear, handwritten in black ink. (Background: Herbert Henry Davis Peirce (May 11, 1849 - December 5, 1914) was a United States diplomat who served as Third Assistant Secretary of State from 1901 to 1906 and as U.S. Ambassador to Norway from 1906 to 1911. Ethan Allen Hitchcock (September 19, 1835 - April 9, 1909) served under Presidents William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt as U.S. Secretary of the Interior. President McKinley appointed him Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Russia in 1897 and in February 1898 Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary, the first Ambassador accredited from the United States to the court of Russia. He was recalled in 1898 to serve in first McKinley's and then his successor, Roosevelt's, Cabinet. As Secretary of the Interior, Hitchcock pursued a vigorous program for the conservation of natural resources and reorganized the administration of Native American affairs. Hitchcock died April 9, 1909, in Washington, D.C., at the age of 73. Hitchcock was buried at the Bellefontaine Cemetery in St. Louis, Missouri.) OVERALL: VG+ Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
