13 vols., 8vo., Mixed Editions, with coloured or sepia-toned frontispieces and very numerous sepia-toned plates, some light and occasional spotting; coloured cloth, upper boards lettered in gilt enclosing mounted coloured illustrations (not repeated in text), gilt backs, a very good, bright, clean and elegant run. Published in the early 1930s, Raphael Tuck's 'Cathedral Story' series provides accessible and easily-written accounts of the great English Cathedals and Minsters. The authors, always well-informed, were almost exclusively senior clergy of their respective institutions, and the plates are well-chosen and atmospheric. In particular, the cover watercolour illustrations are quite charming and the series as A whole has an attractive and elegant feel. This run comprises A.S. Duncan-Jones: Chichester Cathedral (1ed. 1933. SIGNED PRESENTATION COPY), Horace Munroe: Southwark Cathedral (1ed. 1933), Margaret A. Babington: Canterbury Cathedral (2ed. 1934), Charles C.

Very minor shelfwear to DJ. ; The essays in this informative book explore the impact of British classics--the study of Greco-Roman antiquity, with an emphasis on the classical Latin and Greek languages--beyond the borders of England itself, during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: inside the academy as specialized scholarship and teaching, outside the academy as a mode of social and cultural formation. Not only did British classics permeate England; they brought English values to Scotland, Wales, and America as well. Far into the twentieth century, to learn classics "the Oxbridge way" was to cloak oneself in the mantle of a gentleman even when the "gentleman" was a woman. ; 230 pages
