Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narrative and Critical History of America, Vol. 1 of 8 It was in 1833 that Colonel Thomas Aspin wall, of Boston, who was for thirty-eight years the American consul at London, printed at Paris a catalogue of his collection of Americana, where seven hundred and seventy-one lots in cluded, beside much that was ordinarily useful, a great number of the rarest of books on Ameri can history. Iiarrisse has called Colonel Aspin wall, not without justice, a bibliophile of great tact and activity. All but the rarest part of his collection was subsequently burned in 1863, when it had passed into the hands of Mr. Sam uel L. M. Barlow,6 of New York.
