193124327Singapore 1931. ALS from Norah Purcell from her address at 6 Ridley Park Singapore Straits Settlements dated 19.IX.31. She sends a deposit of 5 pounds for books to chosen by her or her husband Victor but expresses that she "was greatly displeased to receive 'abridged' editions of the two children's books ordered "The Wide Wide World" and "Queechy." When I asked for cheap copies to be sent I naturally expected they would be complete and from Ward Lock or Collins or Blackie - not the totally illiterate Herbert Strang who has been responsible for the present volumes which are almost unrecognisable." She goes on in this vein for two pages later complaining about "publishers who print fairy tales in mutilated form under the name of Hans Anderson and who take it upon themselves to put pink and white rubbish in place of Tenniel's illustrations - or even "Re-tell" Lewis Carrol! sic.<br /> <br /> Victor Purcell 1896-1965 was a British colonial public servant historian poet and Sinologist in Malaya now Malaysia. Susan Warner writing under the name of "Elizabeth Wetherell" wrote 30 novels. The Wide Wide World her first was the most popular. It was translated into several languages including French German & Dutch. Other than Uncle Tom's Cabin it was perhaps the most widely circulated story of American authorship. Wikipedia. She and her sister moved with their father to Constitution Island in the Hudson River after the financial Panic of 1837 teaching religion to West Point cadets. Her sister Anna was the author of song "Jesus Loves Me". <br /> <br /> 7x9" 2pp with date stamps and the bookseller's notations for the deposit account receipt number and various other notes. unknown

189760873Chicago : A.C. McClurg and Company 1897. Hardcover. Near Fine/Good. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Margaret Warner Morley and Robert Forsyth. Near Fine book in a Good and very rare dust jacket. See scans and description. Chicago: A.C. McClurg and Company 1897 copyright 1891. A Song of Life - educator Margaret Warner Morley's very first opus in her career as an author of numerous books on nature and biology for children and as a novelist. Illustrated by Morley herself and Robert Forsyth. 12mo cream dustjacket decorated in maroon floral motif with swirls on front cover and spine; gray textured cloth boards identically imprinted in maroon; 155 pp. 4 pp ads. A Near Fine book sparse spots of soil at covers but with strong hinges and almost no sign of actual wear; faint mustiness which I will essay to dispel. A Good-only jacket but one which is essentially complete. See full jacket scan. That this jacket has survived at all is remarkable - for this title or almost any other of that era - and it lends this already scarce piece greatly enhanced collectibility. "A Song of Life" is a gently educational treatment of life on this planet - with an almost poetic sensibility in its language and its accompanying enchanting illustrations by Morley and Forsyth. Its separate sections entitled "Flowers" "Fishes" "Frogs" "Birds" "The End - And The Beginning" and "The World's Cradle" rather remarkably elude the stiff formalism of textbooks - and ventures into a softly holistic understanding of nature and life while still presenting educational information to its youthful readers. Exceptional. In the dustjacket virtually impossible to replace. See scans. L19n <br/> <br/> A.C. McClurg and Company hardcover
