1993BIBLIO-31718Clarendon Press Oxford first edition 1993. Cloth gilt cover-titles in frame 8vo 23 cm. lii 592 pp facs map. From the introductory note: "This edition contains all of Shelleys prose writings except the early Gothic novels and the notes to Queen Mab and to Hellas. Note- this Volume I contains the prose written before Shelley left England in early March 1818 : material written later will fall within Volume II. Significant among several items appearing here for the first time in any collected edition of Shelleys prose works are the Declaration in Chancery On Zionism On the Improvvissatore Sgricci A Definition of Atheism the Cry of War to the Greeks and the fragment On Contraception. While An Answer to Leslies A Short and Easy Method with the Deists has been previously published in disparate parts in collected editions its reintegrated form like most of the above works has appeared only in periodical publication. On the other hand it has seemed expedient to print the Letters Written in Geneva under that title rather than continue to subsume them under the general head of the History of a Six Weeks Tour. The Letter on Richard Carlisle has been previously published only among the poets letters as has the fragment On Learning Languages' the short draft here entitled A Faustian Note associated with the latter is previously unpublished." From a review by Stuart Curran in the Keats-Shelley Journal ".quite simply although it may seem unimaginable this is an authoritative text. The expertise that informs this volume is as good as one gets: assured of all grounds everywhere profiting from the skills of modem coworkers on the manuscripts unobtrusively in charge of every detail of textual historical or critical complexity and representing them all with an exemplary clarity and fidelity to fact. And where facts cannot be unambiguously ascertained Murray has had the good sense to eschew the practices of almost all his predecessors and say so. Very Good.

Jack Valenti 1921-2007 is best known in his long-time role as President of the Motion Picture Association of America from 1966 to 2004. During his 38 year position in the MPAA Valenti created the MPAA film rating system which is still used today. In 1963 Valenti was in the John F. Kennedy motorcade in Dallas and he is seen in the famous photograph of Lyndon Johnson being sworn in as President on Air Force One. Valenti flew back to Washington with Johnson and literally lived in the White House for two months helping Johnson take the reins of the presidency. He was the first special assistant to President Johnson and served at Johnson’s direction as a liaison to the Republican Congressional leadership. Hollywood mogul and Democratic fundraiser Lew Wasserman pressured Lyndon Johnson to let Valenti leave in 1966 to run the MPAA. A striking and articulate man who easily made friends Valenti became a figure of considerable influence in both Hollywood and Washington. Few people have known as many famous and powerful people as Valenti. Macmillan hardcover books
