An exquisite copy of Samuel Bagster's miniature edition of The Psalms of David c.1829 finely bound in full black morocco with a metal clasp from the libraries of Valentine Ackland and British artist Phillida Gili. VA and Sylvia Townsend Warner likely met Gili through her parents Reynolds Stone and Janet Woods who themselves became friends through VA's antiques business which sheran from the long sun-parlour of their Frome Vauchurch home in the 1950s. VA whose shop "was especially popular with collectors of dolls' houses and miniature objects" Bingham 2021 evidently also appreciated miniature books herself. One of a collection of four miniature books from VA's library that we have handled with yet another featuring a gift inscription from the first period of her affair with Elizabeth Wade White: "V.A from E.W.W 1:1:39" these items suggest perhaps that miniature books were a lover's currency of sorts between the two women. They certainly travel compactly and can be packaged easily a consideration for such a long-standing transatlantic affair. In an odd parallel with VA EWW also went on to trade in antiquarian and collectable objects running White & Holahan Books with her lover Evelyn Holahan from their Connecticut home the Patch from the 1940s. Upon her death in November 1969 VA whose success as an antiques dealer had derived in part from her "sense of objects as individual things relics of people and containers of their love" ibid bequeathed many of her own books to friends hence Phillida Gili's inscription: "left to me by Valentine Ackland December 1969".

These were "undeniably able and dextrous writers and politicians who to please the public for whom they wrote and spoke opposed ridiculed and contemned our people and our government during the tremendous struggle for the worthy and honorable existence of our country.

Liverpool 1864. 24pp. Disbound with wrapper remnants along spine. Good. Siemms says "Without any previous intention of being a soldier either in the army of the North or South yet I found myself one fine day an officer in the army of the Southern Confederacy." He gives some details of his unit's movements and briefly discusses different engagements while noting his frustration at the North's exaggeration in reporting its successes. His war experience was brief: "My military life ended" when he was taken prisoner "at Bull's run" and held as a prisoner until the British flag brought his release. Presenting himself as something of an expert he says "the negroes are far better off than a certain class of poor people in many European countries." He says 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' is filled with exaggeration and "downright untruths." He exposes "the false pretence that the North was fighting for liberty" and says the press has greatly exaggerated the North's progress in the field. Frederick David Samson Siemms 1844-1907 was born in England but it is unclear how he ended up in the United States or fighting for the Confederate Army. His military records show that he enlisted on May 13 1861 at the age of 17 years for a period of 12 months as a private with 1st Artillery Virginia Confederate with Capt. Johnson H.

A very handsome set some hinges starting the textblocks clean fresh crisp and unpressed. RARE FIRST EDITION COMPLETE OF THIS IMPORTANT HISTORY OF ENGLAND FROM THE FIRST INVASION OF THE ROMANS PRESENTED IN HANDSOME CONTEMPORARY BINDINGS. John Lingard 5 February 1771 – 17 July 1851 was an English Roman Catholic priest and historian the author of The History of England From the First Invasion by the Romans to the Accession of Henry VIII an eight-volume work published in 1819. Lingard was a teacher at the English College at Douai and at the seminary at Crook Hall and later St. Cuthbert's College. In 1811 he retired to Hornby in Lancashire to continue work on his writing. The principal object of his major work The History of England is to emphasise the disastrous effects of the Reformation. The book was later expanded by the author and the title changed to reflect the period covered. As each additional volume appeared the History's reputation increased while Lingard continued to revise and improve the whole work. Lingard himself argued that one of his chief duties as an historian was: "to weigh with care the value of the authorities on which I rely and to watch with jealousy the secret workings of my own personal feelings and prepossessions. Such vigilance is a matter of necessity to every writer of history . Otherwise he will be continually tempted to make an unfair use of the privilege of the historian; he will sacrifice the interests of truth to the interests of party national or religious or political." J. Lingard "History of England" vol 1 6th edition London: Charles Dolman 1854 p. 6. Lingard adopted a non-controversial and sober approach to history with the emphasis on incontrovertible fact and using primary rather than secondary sources. Lingard's History is also an apt demonstration of the advantages a Catholic historian of the time may have had in terms of impartiality. Lingard's religion had to a large extent isolated him from the mainstream nationalism which surrounded Protestant historians as well as from the growing "providentialist" concept of history. Lingard's strength of argument however continued to be popular and the influence of Protestant animosity for Catholic apologetic also led him to develop a keen critical judgment. He was devoted to absolute accuracy and detail and the History was a groundbreaking work in its use of primary sources. Lingard made extensive use of Vatican archives and French Italian Spanish and English dispatches document collections and state papers – the first British historian to do so. The peripheral nature of English Catholicism put him in a position of "outside observer" to much of English intellectual culture and this is reflected in his historical works. Despite this distancing effect however Lingard maintained an active interest in politics all his life and was a noted pamphleteer. History of England is a substantial scholarly work which gave full treatment to the history of England. From 1811 until his death in 1851 Lingard spent most of his life in the village of Hornby near Lancaster where he devoted himself to his study and writing. A quiet gentle man he was well liked by the residents. Lingard's popularity as an historian had its day but his contribution to historical method came at a critical point in British intellectual history. Printed for J. Mawman in Ludgate Street; Printed for Baldwin and Cradock, Paternoster-Row and Joseph Booker, New Bond Street hardcover

[Fore-Edge Painting] Church of EnglandBiblio.com

The Book of Common Prayer and administration of the Sacraments. with: Proper Lessons to be read at morning & evening prayer on the Sundays and other Holy Days throughout the year.

1844TK0278Oxford:: University Press 1844. 1844. 9 cm. 3.7 x 2.25 inches. 2 volumes. 16mo. not paginated. Original full very dark maroon gilt-stamped morocco all edges gilt gilt inner dentelles cream endsheets. Both volumes are within a maroon full-leather slipcase with draw-string. A note suggests the box is later made however the same note states that the fore-edge paintings are early and they are clearly not early. All-in-all a handsome set very nicely preserved. Fine. With two fore-edge paintings called "Village Church scenes". The bookseller's note referencing this item suggests that these fore-edge paintings were from 1844. This supports buyers thinking that an item is something which it isn't – a huge problem with fore-edge painted books. What is their true history and how does one know it It is natural to ask what evidence is there for taking a position on an item like this. The fore-edge paintings offered here are likely dated to the 1990s. These are not 19th century images. / What do you suppose is far more likely to be true: that an item in front of you is new or that it is old If it is 'new' then how do you know What if it is old Be aware that a true fore-edge painted specimen of any early date say 1780 or 1802 – is quite rare – especially when compared to the overwhelming number of 20th century specimens and especially specimens that are fresh – new – not even as old as the internet! What is the evidence It is often thought that early provenance implies that a book has a fore-edge painting when it is a thing inscribed to a lover perhaps a bride or a close friend. Some fore-edge paintings have been made and inscribed thus but they are very rare. What is common is an item that is new. / A charming piece as its condition including the case are perfectly kept and clean. Sold by Harrington's with their cost-marks. c340/081 University Press, 1844. hardcover
