  • The Charge of the Light Brigade – Alfred Lord Tennyson

    The Charge of the Light Brigade – Alfred Lord Tennyson

    The most unusual and dramatic presentation of this high energy poem about the “Charge of the Light Brigade” against the Russian Batteries at Balaclava on 25th October 1854. It didn’t go well.

    Landscape presentation with this unusual London Evening Star cover.

    Published by Golden Press New York in collaboration with Paul Hamlyn in London in 1964. Unpaginated but twenty plus pages of verse strikingly illustrated by Alice and Martin Provensen probably America’s best ever illustrators of book for young people … this one with a much more adult tone .. a work of art really.

    Tennyson and his “Charge” best presentation

    The Divine Sarah – A Life of Sarah Bernhardt – Gold and Fitdale

    Large octavo, 349 pages, plus addenda and after introductions. Published by Harpers in 1992. Nicely illustrated from period photographs etc. A very good near fine copy.

  • Who’s Who in D.H. Lawrence – Holderness

    Who’s Who in D.H. Lawrence – Holderness

    A first edition published in New York in 1976 by Taplinger.

    We think this is a great idea and should be done for every great novelist – we have always struggled with retaining character recognition in lengthy or complex novels – the human-kind not the typescript. Tolstoy would be a good one – has anyone got to the end of War and Peace confident that the characters are firmly “slotted in” to one’s mind.

    Anyway, here we have DHL and a pocket of literary paradise for the likes of Voyager.

  • James Joyce’s Ulysses – Clive Hart

    James Joyce’s Ulysses – Clive Hart

    We doubt if there is any book ever published that requires more explanation and assistance on reading than Ulysses. Deliberately so. Joyce himself struggled with the corrections and many errors still remain – dependent what an error is in the context of Ulysses. Note that that should put anyone off reading the best mots confusing book of at least the 20th Century.

    Octavo, 186 pages, very good condition Expert, Clive Hart published his work in 1968 through the Sydney University Press – part of their Sydney Studies in Literature series.

    Ulysses by Hart – get it and understand it better

  • Strawbale Homebuilding – Alan Gray.

    Strawbale Homebuilding – Alan Gray.

    An “Earth Garden Magazine Publication” i.e. self published by Alan Gray of PO Box 2, Trentham, Victoria – love it!.

    The title more or less explains all. Octavo, perfect bound, 156 pages with numerous illustrations from original photographs of the magnificent constructions. This method may have gone out of fashion with the move towards stainless steel, glass and posh bathrooms.

    Time for a resurgence we would say – the economy monetary and environmental should be promoted by Governments and all of their cascading authorities.

    Every public servant should be made to build one – sorry if you live off the purse.

    More money and delight can be made from this book over any other

  • The Men That God Forgot – Richard Butler

    The Men That God Forgot – Richard Butler

    First edition published by Hutchinson’s London in 1975. Octavo, 254 pages plus bibliography, end paper maps. Very good condition.

    The most remote penal colony in the world was Sarah Island on the west coast of Van Diemen’s Land. In 1833 after eleven years of misery it was decided to close it down and move the convicts to Port Arthur. Ten convicts were commissioned with the task of constructing a Brig to make the voyage around the coast. They saw their chance and seized the vessel and made their escape … but as always there is more to the story.

    A well researched highly fact backed novelisation – super read.
