Sent to literary editor Mathew Cooke in reply to a Prospectus for a new book being offered by subscription and Cooke's request of an advance payment of 3 guineas Whyte-Melville replies: "as I remitted you in advance for a book you wrote to me about called the History & Articles of Masonry in June 1860 & never received the work I do not feel disposed to do the same now with perhaps a similar result." While The History and Articles of Masonry a transcript of the manuscript now known as the Cooke Manuscript was indeed published in 1861 Whyte-Melville was justified in his caution for Monumenta Masonica was never published.

1879FGN23-B-15Leipzig : Bernhard Tauchnitz 1879. Leather. Very Good. 6" by 4.5. None. A nice copy of Whyte-Melville's thoughts on horse riding dating from the mid nineteenth century. Copyright Edition. With a bookseller's label for D. Nutt London to the rear pastedown. With a bookbinder's stamp for Laufmann to the verso of the front free endpaper. George John Whyte-Melville 18211878 was a Scottish novelist of the sporting-field and a poet. He achieved immediate success as a writer of fox-hunting stories with his first novel Digby Grand in 1854. Having served as a captain in the Coldstream Guards between 1846 and 1849 he volunteered as a major of irregular Turkish cavalry when the Crimean War began. Bones and I or The Skeleton at Home is an anomaly to the corpus of his work since it is far from the worlds of the hunting field or the historical romance. Instead Bones and I centres upon an urban recluse who lives in a small modern villa situated in a London cul de sac looking out upon "the dead wall at the back of an hospital." His most famous lyric is also unusual in its unexpected deep melancholy - the words to Paolo Tosti's song Good-bye! He met his death while hunting. In a half calf binding with marbled boards. Externally very smart. Some light rubbing to the extremities. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean with some light foxing to the rear endpapers. Very Good Bernhard Tauchnitz hardcover
