*Our new catalog--SPRING MISCELLANY 2013--contains 50 select items, all 
new arrivals. Highlights include exceptional presidential material 
including an inscribed Theodore Roosevelt ROUGH RIDERS as well as a book 
inscribed by Roosevelt to Jacob Riis, whom he called the best American; 
two copies of the very limited (25 copies) edition of Eisenhower's 
CRUSADE IN EUROPE each inscribed by Ike to a brother; a John Quincy 
Adams Signed book; George Washington's Secretary's copy of Thomas 
Jefferson's NOTES ON VIRGINIA; and others.  Also there are excellent 
hand-colored plate books including Downing's scarce 1847 edition on 
American Fruits and some nice early printed titles including the heavily 
illustrated 17th century Jonston HISTORIAE NATURALIS.  Literary titles 
include a Signed First Edition of Flannery O'Connor's A GOOD MAN IS HARD 
TO FIND and the First American Edition of WUTHERING HEIGHTS.
