1796LTH23-A-2York: J. Robson et al 1796. Leather. Very Good Indeed. 10.5" by 9". None. A first edition of this collection of biographies by Isaac Walton. Illustrated throughout with numerous plates. Including biographies of Dr John Donne Sir Henry Wotton Mr Richard Hooker Mr George Herbert and Dr Robert Sanderson. It was probably as an angler that Walton made the acquaintance of Sir Henry Wotton. Sir Henry Wotton dying in 1639 Walton undertook his life also; it was finished in 1642 and published in 1651. His life of Hooker was published in 1662 that of George Herbert in 1670 and that of Bishop Robert Sanderson in 1678. All these subjects were endeared to the biographer by a certain gentleness of disposition and cheerful piety; three of them at least Donne Wotton and Herbert were anglers. Their lives were evidently written with loving pains in the same leisurely fashion as his Angler and like it are of value less as exact knowledge than as harmonious and complete pictures of character. An edition of Walton's Lives by G Sampson appeared in 1903. Rebound in half-morocco. Externally very smart. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean with just some scattered light spotting and marginal tidemarks to the frontispiece. Very Good Indeed J. Robson et al hardcover

It began as a "suggestive purchase list" prepared by Bertha Mahony Miller and Elinor Whitney Field proprietresses of the country's first bookstore for children The Bookshop for Boys and Girls. Opened in 1916 in Boston as a project of the Women's Educational and Industrial Union the bookshop closed in 1936 but The Horn Book Magazine continues in its mission to "blow the horn for fine books for boys and girls" as Mahony wrote in her first editorial. In each bimonthly issue The Horn Book Magazine includes articles about issues and trends in children's literature essays by artists and authors and reviews of new books and paperback reprints for children. Articles are written by the staff and guest reviewers including librarians teachers historians and booksellers. The January issue includes the speeches of the winners of the Boston GlobeHorn Book Award and each July issue includes the same from the winners of the year's Newbery Medal and Caldecott Medal. The Fanfare list published in December is the editors' selection of the best children's and young adult books of the year.3 No lists were published from 1941 to 1945 or 1955 to 1958.
