174362PDQWR6XH4WLeyden S. Luchtmans; 1743. 4to. Amsterdam H. Uytwerf Half calf ribbed spine with red morocco title labels mottled boards. With an engraved allegorical frontispiece by Jan Punt 1711-1779 and 80 engraved folding plates by F. de Bakker. 2 volumes. 8 616; 2 617-1496 4 pp. The first Dutch edition of the most popular domestic encyclopaedia of agriculture and house-keeping of the 18th century written by Noël Chomel 1632-1712 a French agronomist entrusted with the domestic management of the possessions of the abbey at Vincennes where he acquired all the knowledge necessary for a rural exploitation. The work was translated into Dutch and edited and enlarged by Jan Lodewyk Schuer who published the Groot algemeen historisch geographisch genealogisch en oordeelkundig woordboek 1733 and by Arnoldus Henricus Westerhoff or Westerhovius rector of the Latin school in Gouda and publisher of the Algemeen kunstwoordenboek der wetenschappen 1734. Westerhoff died while editing the work and his work was taken over by an anonymous editor.The book was published in parts five for the first volume and five for the second. It is enriched with at least 80 folding plates some made especially for the Dutch edition. The folding engraved plates illustrate the process of distilling the art of measuring and domestic chemistry. Under the S one also finds the "Secrets" which include water divination how to extract gold from gilt frames and the "secrets of Hippocrates". Other engravings depict garden designs plants and even a design for a fireplace. Most of the eighty folding engraved plates however illustrate the catching of birds fish and animals - not only rabbits and hares but also wolves and foxes all by means of a wide variety of traps and complicated machines. The text gives mostly advice on the keeping and care of domestic animals on beekeeping and on the cutting of trees. The Huishoudelyk woordboek is also a cookbook with many recipes for meals and home medicines although the title doesn't suggest that and also tips and tricks for keeping one's beauty and health. It remained very popular through the 18th century all through Europe and also in Japan where the Dutch translation was much in use. It was even translated into Japanese in the early 19th century.Good copy; spinw slightly worn.l Bibliotheca gastronomica 1073; BMN p. 169; Ferro incorrect imprint; Goodman Dutch impact on Japan pp. 129-130; Landwehr Het Nederlandse kookboek 29; Van der Sijs Verantwoording van de digitale uitgave van het Huishoudelijk woordboek door Noël Chomel via DBNL.

1930173615Shanghai: Kelly and Walsh Limited 1930. With six folding maps and many illustrations First edition first printing in a presentation binding inscribed by the master of the Shanghai Paper Hunt Club on the first leaf "Major-General Sir Arthur Wardrop C.B.E. From N. L. Sparke. Master S.P.H.C. 1930". Alexander Ernest Wardrop 1872-1961 here called "Arthur" by accident served as Commander-in-Chief North China Command between 1927 and 1929. Equestrian pursuits were extremely popular in the international settlements. Businessmen diplomats military officers and the well-to-do used them to affirm their status and build connections and Shanghai was perpetually gripped by a "mania" Weirather p. 59 for racing. Founded in 1863 the Paper Hunt Club was one of the oldest expatriate groups in the city and by 1930 it included members from 19 different nationalities. Davis's history anthologizes a large amount of information from the club's archives such as the names of stewards past and present the rules of the hunt information on preferred breeds and poems celebrating the club's traditions. A special section pays tribute to Ah Pau the head boy responsible for laying the paper trail for riders to follow. Ah Pau was invaluable when dealing with locals who objected to riders careering across their land: "in his dealings with his fellow countrymen he is usually the embodiment of imperturbability and good humour but when their rapacity and obstructiveness pass all reasonable bounds he lashes them with stinging invective and withers them with biting scorn" p. 29. The text is supported by detailed maps of Shanghai's rural environs and photographs from the private collections of members as well as drawings provided by the Shanghai-based artist Edmund Toeg and the leading cartoonist H. W. G. Hayter. Copies bound in pink cloth include a portrait of the editor bound facing page 36. Here this plate has been replaced by a special leaf bound facing the preface with a tipped-in silver print after a portrait of the author. The verso of the print has adhesive skinning suggesting it was borrowed from another source. Quarto. Large half-tone frontispiece after a photograph of the Christmas 1929 hunt by the Ah Fong Photography Studio; tipped-in silver print after photograph of author; 50 plates 2 colour 1 folding many after drawings by Edmund Toeg and 2 after caricatures by Henry William Goodenough Hayter; 6 folding maps of riding country in and around Shanghai; pen and ink illustrations by Toeg in text; red embossed vignette of horse and rider on title page. Original red padded morocco-grain skiver spine lettered in gilt front cover with gilt vignette of horse and rider pictorial endpapers edges untrimmed. Binding toned expertly recoloured in places wear at foot of spine fragile maps in excellent condition with just a little creasing: a very good copy.

1956175173New York: 1956. A complicated web of intrigue An original script for the playwright's salacious drama never performed in his lifetime inspired by Ian Fleming's affair with Blanche Blackwell. The two were Coward's neighbours during his time in Jamaica. Coward and Fleming were close friends. In 1948 Coward visited Jamaica where he rented Goldeneye from Fleming for a week: "On arrival a boyish teasing friendship and good-natured rivalry over Jamaica began between Coward and Fleming. Fleming too enjoyed the sparring and wrote about the outcome of Coward's first visit. 'He Coward then went off and as close to me as he could get built a house what am I saying - four houses and - to hell with the charms of Bermuda and Switzerland! - comes here every year" Brooks p. 226. Coward's Jamaican home allowed him to observe the actions of his neighbours from a close range: "A complicated web of intrigue which gave Coward ample material for his play" Hoare. This not only included Fleming and Blackwell's affair but also that of Fleming's wife Ann with the politician Hugh Gaitskell. Coward would later write about another of Fleming's affairs with his future wife Ann in his only novel Pomp and Circumstance 1960. Provenance: Geoffrey A. Johnson Coward's close friend and US representative with his ownership stamps. Johnson 1930-2021 cast over 100 Broadway shows including Cats The Phantom of the Opera and Les Misérables. He first met Coward in 1961 when he worked as the stage manager for the Broadway production of Coward's Sail Away. The two went on to work together until Coward's death in 1973. Johnson acted as a trustee of the Noël Coward Foundation and was the Life President of the Noël Coward Archive Trust. Quarto. 97 mimeographed leaves printed rectos only.

This immense work of the pen. Bernard Noël "A man who sinks his teeth into the present and never accepts compromise. With his language he opens the trap doors of the world where it is advisable in all lucidity to go and see clearly even if the way is complex and if it requires efforts" confides Charles Tordjman his friend and stage companion. Yonnel Liégeois.<br />Through his poems his stories his plays his historical or political books his texts on painting Bernard Noël is a writer of first importance whose number of readers in France but also abroad does not cease growing.<b><br /></b><br />Writing is his life his body his faith. He gives himself through it without counting the cost. If he is "outside the genres" and remains unclassifiable his originality makes that each of his pages is signed recognizable identifiable by a writing a voice a language . The unity of his work is however indisputable. It even defies any attempt of the critic to isolate a characteristic point of his writing.<b><br /></b><br />Calligrapher painter graphic designer Els Baekelandt was born in Belgium in 1963. She moved to Paris in 1986 after graduating from the Saint Luc School of Art in Ghent. She devotes much time to gestural painting and experiments with a multitude of different techniques.
