Kingsley Amisone of English literature's most versatile craftsman is also a master of the art of drinking. From his many years of experience and with an eye both to economics and to enjoyment he presents this witty and masterly informative handbook for the drinker amateur and professional. From a guide to alcoholic literature he moves to a selection of prime drink recipes - the fruit of untold years' research in the field. Among his list can be found personal extravaganzas like the Lucky Jim and the Kingers and such irresistibly titled brews as Reginald Bosanquet's Golden Elixir and Evelyn Waugh's Noonday Reviver. Practical guidance on equipment and the store cupboard is followed by a wealth of information about wine including a Wine Shopper's Guide and incidental intelligence on drinking abroad. On a less serious noteKingsley Amis gives us the riotous Mean Sod's Guide 'Vital requirement: prepare pre- and post-dinner drinks in some undiscoverable pantry or broom cupboard'. He has thoughtfully included a section on dealing with The Hangover suggestions for a Boozing Man's Diet and finally for those for whom prevention is better than cure some notes on How Not to Get Drunk. With its apt and highly amusing drawings by Nicolas Bentley this book is an ideal gift for the drinking man of whatever pocket or preference it is as pleasing as a well-made cocktail. Nicolas Clerihew Bentley 1907-78. Born Highgate London. Son of E.C. Bentley the novelist leader writer for The Daily Telegraph and inventor of the four-line verse form known as the 'clerihew'. Studied at University College SchoolLondon and at Heatherley's School of Art. Before and after WW1 during which he was deputy director of the Home Intelligence Unit and editor in the Publications Division of the Ministry of Information he worked freelance as a journalist author and humorous illustrator. Director of Andre Deutsch from 1950. Drew the daily pocket cartoon for The Daily Mail 1958-62. An editor for Sunday Times Publications Ltd. 1962-3 and for Thomas Nelson & Son 1963-7. Nicolas Bentley's illustrations for Belloc's 'New Cautionary Tales' as successor to B. T. Blackwood established his importance as an illustrator. His stylish witty and economical drawings often depicting figures without background or setting owed much to his admiration for the work of the French draughtsman Caran D'Ache and the Swede Olaf Gulbransson.

1890007068Paris: Lemercier 1890. First Edition. Stab binding. String ties. Very Good. N.d. circa 1890. Oblong 13 by 17 cm. Unpaginated 16 leaves of card stock each featuring a chromolithographed color plate of children playing sports and games including hoops bouncing a ball a raquet game called "Le Volant" trotting jump rope swings or alternatively imitating adults such as pretending to perform a baptism or a wedding play-acting as a doctor or merchant and as a photographer back when photographic equipment was far more daunting than that of the 20th century we are more familiar with or simulation a carriage ride in the park. The promotion of the company's product in these illustrations was occasional and subtle with a sign in the background or a bottle of wine here or there. The coloring is very rich and bright. Cover is illustrated with cherubs carrying the flags of ten European nations and marching in a procession. At the head of the parade is a cherub satyr playing a flute while to the side is a cherub atop a barrel holding a scepter and laurel of grape leaves. Posada was an Iberian wine house based in Paris with branches in Lille Nice and Trouville. Scarce with no institutional holdings evidenced on OCLC First Search. Condition: Leaves or plates loose at bottom with the binding holding almost entirely by the top ribbon hole. Scattered light soiling never disconcerting.

1975000577Hanoi: Social Sciences Publishing House 1975. Translated title : "Bronze Dong Son Kettledrums Excavated in Vietnam". A pioneering and detailed study on the Dong Son drums excavated by government archaeologists in northern Vietnam. Emphasis is on analysis of wide variety of iconographic details that occur on the drum walls and tympanum and the resulting light that these images shed on the lives of the ancient Lac Viet peoples - the creators of the drums. The Vietnamese text is printed on 164 pp. of now browned wartime paper and remains readable but the illustrations are very clearly reproduced on high grade art matte paper and come through with excellent clarity. Line drawings of iconographic details with their inherent high contrasts make these details much more readily viewed and studied than if one were to examine photographs or the drums themselves. Text pages browned soft wrappers are sound but chipped and bearing red seal and remains of two labels. Condition typical or better than most publications from Vietnam dating to this period. Book can be hardbound in new cloth on request at modest additional cost - please enquire. Scarce and valuable primary resource on Dong Son bronze art. Text in Vietnamese. 292 pp. 11 b&w photos 196 fine line drawings map bibliography table of contents in Vietnamese and French. . First Edition. Soft Cover. Good text pages browned/Wrappers chipped and soiled. 26 x 19 cm. Social Sciences Publishing House Paperback
