        [HUSKE, John (1721?-1777) or HUSKE, Ellis (1700-1755)]. The Present State of North America,&c. Part I [all published]. London: R. and J. Dodsley, 1755. With the rare map. Second London edition, "superior to the other containing revisions of text and typography" (Lande). "This book was, at the time of its appearance, both inflammatory and influential. It set forth British aims in North America, making a clear, vigorous, and incisive attack upon the French pretentions, telling its English readers rather more what they wished to be told than reminding them of unpleasant truths" (ibid). It is chiefly translated from Butel-Dumont's Histoire et Commerce. Part II was never published. Huske (either John or his brother, Ellis, sources vary) urges war as an immediate remedy to the situation. Howes states that the map is only in some copies of the first edition. Howes H-840; Lande 463; Sabin 34027 (stating he has never seen a copy); Wroth American Bookshelf 1755, p.142. Quarto (239 x 179mm). With hand-colored folding engraved map by "Huske," approx. 415 x 505mm. (A little staining to map, soiling to title-page.) Modern half calf to style, spine gilt. Provenance: Boston Athenaeum (inkstamp on title) – Ernest E. Keet (bookplate).
