115314Very Good. Green buckram 193 × 253 mm stamped in blind 'Kodak Panorams' sic containing 36 gelatin silver panoramic photographs between 55 × 170 mm and 60 × 180 mm each loosely inserted two-to-a-page behind window mounts in specially-designed album leaves; 14 are captioned in pencil at the head of the print and 7 have a reference number between 67 and 83; many of the earlier photographs not featuring images of war are captioned on the verso in ink. Buckram slightly marked and rubbed; mild silvering-out to some prints; overall both the album and the photographs are in excellent condition. The heart of the album consists of 19 striking images of towns between Lens near Arras and Maurepas near Saint Quentin and the panoramic format of the photographs captures the horrifying extent of artillery damage. The towns identified in pencil on the images are Albert Lens Peronne Roye Villers Carbonnel Moreuil Souchez La Maisonnette Maurepas Bouchevesnes Combles and Hangard with a further identified view of the Canal du Nord. This area saw some of the heaviest fighting on the Western Front. Particularly noteworthy are three uncaptioned views of the destruction to the centre of Arras with these panoramas far more evocative than the ubiquitous snapshots. One image albeit poorly exposed shows a large homemade sign erected on the ruins of a church: 'Lens Veut Renaître' Lens Wants To Be Reborn. <p>Several of the early images in the album are also of interest. One shows a field hospital identified as 'Hôpital de campagne américain' almost certainly one of several run by the American Ambulance Volunteer Field Service present in France from the beginning of the war. Another shows an establishment at Notre Dame de la Mer almost certainly the Ecole nationale belge des mutilés de guerre near Port-Villez. <p> The other photographs are of the French Alps 1913; the baroque Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte near Melun four items 1914; a Paris streetscape 'Ce que l'on voyait en Juin 1915 du balcon de la chambre de Maman à Paris'; the Chateau de Brécourt three items 1915 including one with two women captioned 'Emma et Léonie dans la région de ma tranchée'; the Seine at Vernon two items 1915; and sepia-toned images of Mont Saint Michel and the shrine at Lourdes. unknown

pp. vi, 215. Lightly worn original full cloth binding. Paper label on spine, chipped, as is a bit of the spine. Hardbound. Very good. This influential analysis of Kant's great work was written 'to elucidate those points, which, notwithstanding a translation, made about three years ago, of the work itself still remain unintelligible'. 'Possessed of ample means, [Francis Haywood (1796-1858)] devoted himself to study, and must at an early age have acquired a knowledge of German and of German philosophy and divinity unusual in England at the period, having been in 1828 the anonymous translator of Bretschneider's reply to Hugh James Rose's "State of Protestantism in Germany", dealing with the tendencies of German theology. He shortly afterwards undertook a much more difficult task in the translation of Kant's "Critick of Pure Reason", previously only accessible to English students unacquainted with German in a French or a Latin version. Haywood's long remained the standard English translation. Published [by Pickering] in 1838, it was reprinted with improvements in 1848, and was commended by the chief authority on Kant in Great Britain, Sir William Hamilton, with whom Haywood was corresponding respecting it' (DNB XXII, 832). Much of this description was taken years ago from a Bernard Quaritch Ltd. offering of a slightly better copy at a much higher price. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W151 Rt
