1928 Rum, Romance & Rebellion by Charles William Taussig New York
$59.99
This is a sharp, visually striking early-20th-century work on the Atlantic world—rum, trade, piracy, rebellion, and the moral machinery behind empire. Taussig wasn’t writing fluff. This book moves through maritime commerce, slavery, and resistance with a narrative voice that sits halfway between history and indictment.
The Kappel illustrations matter here. They’re not decorative filler—they carry weight, especially the diagrams and depictions related to slave ships and instruments of control. That content pushes this book beyond “maritime curiosity” into social history that collectors actually want.
Condition:
• Original illustrated boards present and solid
• Clean title page, tight binding
• Notable illustrated plates intact
• Ex-libris bookplate present (Ormónde Wilcox)
