183589496London: Rudolph Ackermann 1835. First Edition. First Printing. Octavo. 21.5cm. Publisher's original pebble grain deep brown cloth titled and embellished in gilt to front board. iv; 2; 110pp. Tight clean and strong a little bumping and scuffing to extremities light sunning to spine very handsome; internally clean and fresh brown endpapers with armorial bookplate to front pastedown tipped into the prelims actually affixed to the rear of the frontis by a stub is an addressed postal paper probably the front of an envelope bearing Mytton's signature an 1820 Shrewsbury postal frank and the address of Mrs. Lethbridge the married name of Mytton's sister; the 12 hand colored plates by Alken are spectacularly bright and striking tissue guards are present. An outstandingly clean and attractive copy if it is possible for a book that has made its way from 1835 to be described as "near fine" then this fits the bill. <br /> <br /> The book in the hand is quite a slight volume but is housed in one of the most luxurious book boxes we have encountered; a deep red levant morocco case by Sangorski with a push button clasp a rather decadent cushioned velvet lining and a drop front for ease of opening. The book itself has a tailor made red cloth and board chemise. <br /> Also present in the case are old catalog entries for the book one of which is on a Bernard Quaritch letterhead and a three page typed analysis of the title in all its editions and permutations by Ernest R. Gee one of the most legendary New York dealers in sporting and hunting books. Quaritch's pencil notes to the front flyleaf state: "Very rare in original condition. Extremely fine and perfect copy" which for them is the equivalent of throwing a parade. The bookplate is that of noted collector of fine books E. Hubert Litchfield whose legendary library was auctioned off in 1951 like so many post-war libraries from country seats of extinguished gentry. <br /> <br /> John "Mad Jack" Mytton himself was probably the epitome of the early 19th century fearless noble rake. Frequently in his own lifetime compared to that other luminous doomed libertine Lord John Rochester; Mytton was an alcoholic he took 2000 bottles of port with him to college a gambler by the standards of the time a womaniser and as Rifleman Harris would say; "A courtier to my Lord Bacchus and an unremitting debtor." <br /> Regardless of his belief that moral highground was just something to gallop one's hounds over during his lifetime Mytton was very much loved by his friends associates and servants. <br /> A mad eccentric whose life can best be described as a series of enthusiastically botched suicide attempts he was also generous to a fault utterly without fear completely at home in his own lunacy kind thoughtful creative and very much a product of his time. When he wasn't dressing as a highwayman to terrify rural clergy or hunting wildfowl in winter at night on ice.naked he was riding a bear into dinner parties accidentally setting himself on fire to cure hiccups and dressing up as a tramp to test the charity of his own estate staff he ended up fist fighting his own under butler when they failed to be forthcoming. <br /> He was dead by 38 riddled with alcoholism and compounded injury and just like with Rochester his light went down entangled with the dark. Accounts vary but something like 3500 people including his tenants and servants attended his funeral including a beautiful young woman named Susan whom Mytton had met on Westminster Bridge in 1831 and promptly offered a salary of 500 pounds a year to be his companion; she stayed with him until his death. A rare book lavishly preserved commemorating a type of man that for better or worse no longer exists. Rudolph Ackermann unknown

Dans sa Bibliographie Générale de l'Escrime, Gelli indique qu'il s'agit d'un ouvrage "rare" et précise : "Il ne nous a pas été possible de trouver un exemplaire de la première édition de ce petit traité du Prince Pierre-Napoléon Bonaparte ; traité qui se fonde, à peu de chose près, sur les principes de l'ouvrage de Bazancourt, et tend au même but". Etat très satisfaisant (reliure un peu frottée, des rouss.). On connaît la vie aventureuse et désordonnée du futur meurtrier de Victor Noir (le 10 janvier 1870) ; le Prince Pierre-Napoléon Bonaparte (1815-1881) était le septième des dix enfants de Lucien Bonaparte.

Publisher's original dark blue ripple grain cloth titled in gilt to spine with blind ruling to boards this edition can also be seen in red cloth. 173pp.; 4pp. ads. Bumping to extremities with some light scuffing to the lower corners and some softening and fraying at the head and tail strong tight and pretty; internally clean and fresh a triangle of dampstaining to the prelims that fades out before the title page four woodcuts by the author including frontis. some pale cosmetic foxing in places something this book is prone to and the first gathering is perhaps a little proud. A very good copy with some mild cosmetic wear of a scarce and highly collectable title. <br /> <br /> A tale of English sporting life of the early 19th century recounting the adventures of a visiting American sampling the madcap pleasures of foxhunting with The Quorn one of the oldest and most respected "Hunts" essentially a hunting club for the local gentry with each region having their own variations territories and indeed techniques. The Quorn was one of the first Hunts to introduce a system of hunting techniques under Hugo Meynell from the 1750's until his death around 1800 by which time the techniques skills and training styles he had introduced had spread and been developed upon by all the subsequent rural Hunts that appeared like the Tiverton or Beaufort. This form of hunting was quite obviously a pursuit of the gentry something that Surtees later "Jorrocks" character highlighted satirically; recounting the adventures and misadventures of a bluff wealthy cockney grocer pursuing the pastimes of the seated and landed nobility. A scarce book. Getz, Buck & Co unknown
