1912135051912. inscribed by Sabatini A History and Some Criticisms. With a Coloured Frontispiece and Sixteen Other Illustrations in Half-tone. London: Stanley Paul & Co. n.d.1912. 32 pp ads undated but with this title listed second in the list of new announcements and with 1910 and 1911 cited elsewhere. Original black cloth lettered in gilt with dust jacket. First Edition of this very early historical work by Sabatini about a decade before he hit it big with "swashbuckling" tales such as SCARAMOUCHE and CAPTAIN BLOOD. Born of an Italian father and an English mother and educated in Portugal and Switzerland Sabatini 1875-1950 was fluent in five languages by the time he was eighteen; he would soon have a position in the Intelligence Department of the War Office during the Great War. The Sabatini website cites a 48-page ad catalogue but we think it is quite possible that this catalogue may precede: the only dates appearing in this catalogue are 1910 and 1911 and the inscription below is dated January 1912 the month of publication. This is a near-fine copy the only real flaw being some small holes in the cloth at the joints one fore-corner also shows some wear; included is the 1912 dust jacket red printed in black in good-to-very good condition a large chip at the bottom of the front panel other minor edge-wear but nothing affecting print spine slightly faded. THIS IS AN INSCRIBED PRESENTATION COPY with the author's ink inscription on the title verso "To Herbert Jarman from Rafael Sabatini London 17 Jany 1912". Jarman was an actor and occasional assistant producer on the London stage -- for example not long before this inscription Jarman had starred as Louis XIII in the 1911 stage production of "Bardelys the Magnificent" adapted by Sabatini and Henry Hamilton from Sabatini's 1906 novel of the same title our thanks to Sabatini biographer Ruth Heredia for this information. This early Sabatini title is scarce; in dust jacket it is very scarce; and inscribed it is extremely scarce. unknown books

1928FB4502 /24<p>Brown cloth binding with gilt title on the spine. Gilt Borgia heraldic emblem on the front board.</p><p>A quality collector's copy</p><p>Most people consider Cesare Borgia one of history's villains - there are foul rumours that fly around the man's history despicable tales of despicable acts: there is little he has not been accused of in fact. Rafael Sabatini - famed novelist author of such deservedly renowned classics as Scaramouche and Captain Blood - had a very different idea of who Cesare Borgia was. Sabatini may be right: Borgia may have been one of history's great men consigned to villainy because his enemies wrote the histories.</p><p>Cesare Borgia; 13 September 1475 – 12 March 1507 was an Italian ex-cardinal and condottiero mercenary leader of Aragonese Spanish origin whose fight for power was a major inspiration for The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli. He was an illegitimate son of Pope Alexander VI and member of the Spanish-Aragonese House of Borgia.</p><p>After initially entering the Church and becoming a cardinal on his father's election to the Papacy he became after the death of his brother in 1498 the first person to resign a cardinalate. He served as a condottiero for King Louis XII of France around 1500 and occupied Milan and Naples during the Italian Wars. At the same time he carved out a state for himself in Central Italy but after his father's death he was unable to retain power for long. According to Machiavelli this was not due to a lack of foresight but his error in creating a new pope.</p> Stanley Paul & Co. hardcover
