Furtreffliches Denck-Mahl der Gottlichen Regierung, bewiesen an der uhralten hochst-beruhmten Antiquitat des Klosters S. Michaelis in Luneburg..., von M. Sigismund Hossman. No publisher indicated, Celle, 1711. Fourth edition. German.
Bound with: Das schwer zu bekehrende Juden-Hertz, nebst einigen Vorbereitungs-Mitteln zu der Juden Bekehrung auf Veranlassung der erschröcklichen Gottes-Lästerung..., von M. Sigismundo Hosmann. Helmstadt: Hoffmann, 1711. German.
Two books written by Sigismund Hosmann, the priest of Celle, Germany. In his priestly function Hosmann accompanied the band of robbers headed by Nickel (or Nikol) List, many of whose members were Jewish. The band members were imprisoned and executed in Celle. The two books evince an anti-Semitic tone.
The first book includes 18 plates, most of them portraits of the band members. Three portraits contain explicit mention that the portrayed men are Jews.
The first work describes the entire band - their capture, trial and execution. The second work discusses the difficulty of converting Jews, with the case of band member Jonas Meyer serving as an example. According to the book, when Meyer was about to be executed before a large public he cried out loud, “I lived as a Jew and I shall die as a Jew. Cursed is he in whose heart is an iota of belief in Jesus”. This book contains an entire chapter, 40 pages long, devoted to Sabbatai Zevi.
In 1698, List’s band robbed the church of Lüneburg, Germany, with the gold treasure they took from it making this the greatest church robbery ever undertaken. The following year, the band, many of whose members were Jewish, was captured, and its members were sentenced to death.
[12], 353, [4] pp.; [5], 456, 104, [20] pp., 20 cm. Good condition. Some stains. Wear to margins of etching facing the first title page. Damage to binding. Bookplates.

Entdeckter Jüdischer Baldober, oder Sachsen-Coburgische acta criminalia, Paul Nicolaus Einert. Coburg: Steinmarck, 1737. German.
"Jewish Bandleader Captured", book by Paul Nicolaus Einert (published anonymously).
Includes three engraved plates, two of which show handcuffed Jewish criminals: Mendel Carbe and Hoyum Moyses.
The author Einert headed the investigation leading to the arrest of a band of robbers, most of whose members were Jews, captured in the 1730s in Coburg in Bavaria, Germany.
The bandleader ("Baldober") was the Jew Mendel Garbe or Carben, following whose arrest many other band members were captured, almost all of them Jewish. The band was responsible for a long series of robberies in various parts of the country. After the investigation was completed and the band members convicted, Einert published this book with the aim of "exposing many heretofore unknown crimes and robberies carried out by Jews". Einert used the affair to disseminate a book of anti-Semitic accusations based by two assumptions: first, that solidarity exists between all Jews, whether criminal or not, making the entire Jewish people accomplices to crime; second, that the motivation of Jewish criminals to commit crimes is not just greed and the desire for profit, but also the desire to harm Christians and Christianity.
Bound together with the book are:
1. Acten-mässige designation derer von einer diebischen Juden-bande… Frankfurt: Jaeger, [1734?]. Einert's previous book, also published following the completion of the investigation of Mendel Garbe and his band. Third edition, expanded.
2. Des berüchtigten Spitz-Buben in London, John Sheppards, lasterhafftes Leben und schändliches Ende. No publisher or place of publication indicated, 1725. German translation of the autobiography of famous British criminal John (Jack) Sheppard, executed in 1724 after escaping from prison four times and becoming a hero of the lower classes in Britain. Title page shows an engraved portrait of Sheppard in prison.
591, 40, 24, 38 pp. 21 cm. Very good condition. Open tear to title page, no damage to text. Binding from the period, with vellum spine and corners, slightly worn and rubbed.
