1907162669London: John Murray 1907. First edition first impression of the politician Noel Buxton's account of the Balkans which accurately warns of impending war. He gathered the research for this work across six journeys to the region. Copies are uncommon in commerce. Buxton 1869-1948 served as Chairman of the Balkan War Relief Committee after "A visit to the Balkans in 1899 began a long-lasting fascination with that part of the world and a passion for the cause of oppressed minorities in the region" ODNB. During the 1912 war he helped organise the sending of an all-female medical unit and in 1914 he went on a political mission to Bulgaria in the hopes of securing its neutrality. This work was his first of many focused on the region and preceded the initial conflict of 1912. Octavo. Frontispiece map and 4 maps over a double page spread; publisher's 4-page catalogue at end. Original green cloth spine and front cover lettered in gilt. Spine slightly cocked and toned extremities lightly bumped and rubbed endpapers and top edge toned. A very good copy. hardcover

London in 1943. 8vo. purple cloth backstrip lettered in gilt; in the scarce publisher's wrapper clipped printed in black and yellow with wartime advertisement for BBC radio's Britain Calls the World to the front flap and list of other Coward plays to the lower panel; THE BOOK is in Very Good condition text evenly toned with some offsetting to the front free endpaper and half title; very slightly dulled at backstrip with light rubbing and sunning at spine tips; the scarce WRAPPER is price-clipped and also in Very Good condition with minimal shelf-wear and markings slight creased to folds with small losses at edges corners and more so to the spine tips up to 0.5cm in depth not affecting text one 1.5cm closed tear along spine and some minor splitting to the front flap fold. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. Originally written in 1939 Present Laughter was in the process of rehearsals when WWII broke out. Consequently it was not performed on stage until 1942. The plot follows a successful and egotistical protagonist Gary Essendine as he prepares for a role in South Africa. Along the way he must deal with a mid-life crisis women who attempt to seduce him and many other farcical scenarios. Semi-autobiographical Coward played himself in the first few performances and later claimed that once he sat down to write it he had completed all three acts within a mere six days. The play was "a very light comedy he wrote written with the sensible object of providing me with a bravura part". The play was most recently performed at the Old Vic in 2019 with Andrew Scott in the leading role. A cheap wartime production and very scarce with the wrapper in such collectible condition.
