Blake, John Lauris, 1788-1857. Letters of John Lauris Blake, 1847-1856.

Title: Letters of John Lauris Blake, 1847-1856.

In a letter to James Munroe & Co., Booksellers, 1847 December 10, Blake discusses his move to Orange, N.J., the disaster at 79 Fulton Street interfering with his travels to New York; his desire to write reviews; and reference materials he will need. The letter is written on the verso of a prospectus for "Memoirs of American Merchants." In a letter to Luther Tucker, 1851 December 31, Tucker mentions woodcuts from Tucker for one of Blake's books; Andrew Jackson Downing's work; the superiority of Downing's "Horticulturist" to Hovey's magazine; inevitable obsolesence of authors and journalists; Saxton's woodcuts; and the possibility of Tucker's re-stereotyping the 1848 volume of "Cultivator." In a letter to the Rev. Andrew Preston Peabody, 1856 November 4, Tucker thanks Peabody for corrections to biographical dictionary entries on William B.O. Peabody, William Plumer and William Plumer, Jr., and [Robert?] Rantoul; defends his work; discusses a Mr. Dabney and Appleton's Cyclopaedia of American Biography; and expresses his delight that Peabody had not left New Hampshire.
