19118431<p>This is a rare collection of two lectures delivered by Andre Simon at Vintners' Hall in London in the early 1900's. Simon was a French-born wine merchant gourmet and prolific writer about wine. In 1908 he created 'The Wine Trade Club' with friends organizing tastings and technical lectures that foreshadowed the 'Institute of Masters of Wine' 45 years later. This collection constitutes two of six of Simon's lectures that were published. The lectures were published either separately "for distribution to the staff of provincial wine-merchants" or as a monthly supplement to issues of "Ridley's Wine and Spirit Trade Circular." The lectures published separately came in two versions - a "plain" version with paper wraps or - as offered here - a deluxe "presentation" version bound in green calf leather with gilt covers. Each lecture is a first edition published by Wyman & Sons in London.<br /><br />The following two lectures are included:<br /> "The Wine Trade of England: Past and Present." A Lecture Delivered at Vintners' Hall by The Wine Trade Club. 20th November 1911.<br /> "The Vineyards of the World." A Lecture Delivered at Vintners' Hall by The Wine Trade Club. 19th January 1912.<br /><br />Condition:<br />Light soiling to the covers. Light wear to the top edge of both spines. Both books are firmly bound with no cracks and no loose pages. All covers are firmly attached. Both books have consistent foxing to the pages. There is a wine-themed vintage bookplate affixed to each front pastedown." Overall in Very Good- condition.</p> Wyman & Sons

199046520<p>London : Frederick Muller 1990. First edition. A curious late Raven memoir apparently soon withdrawn from publication having been subjected to the most savage reviews he can ever have experienced - by Craig Brown Christopher Hitchens Humphrey Carpenter and not least by Auberon Waugh - "With a shock we realise that Raven is writing about real people albeit dead ones . I am sorry to be pompous but this simply won't do . These were all people that I knew . Forget about libel or good taste or the normal standards of civilised reticence . The interesting thing is not that he should have had these experiences but that he should choose to say he has and that he should find a publisher prepared to print them". Medium 8vo 25cm. x190viiipp. Original orange boards blocked and lettered in black; text a little tanned as usual but otherwise a very good copy in the dust-jacket - the jacket a little faded at spine but otherwise also very good.</p> London : Frederick Muller, (1990). hardcover

193222412New York: Harrison Smith & Robert Haas. Very Good in Very Good- dj. 1932. First American Edition. Hardcover. moderately shelfworn light-colored staining along front joint; jacket has paper loss at several corners various small nicks and tears some soiling and age-darkening to rear panel. Somewhat phantasmagorical novel about a young fellow the bastard son of a sailor who grows up in a grimy quayside London cul-de-sac and falls in love with a "slum-sprite" girl whose lowlife father runs the titular pub. Returning some years later from military service he finds that she's run off and become a celebrated chanteuse; he tracks her down to Rio but she denies her younger identity which of course forces him to spend the rest of the book trying to win her back. The New York Times reviewer although admiring of the writer's style was somewhat nonplussed by the novel calling it "a novel from Mars . . . a strange creation -- terse elliptical obscure peculiarly foreshortened" -- and yet "a rich and varied dish succinctly portioned out and well flavored with excitement." "Simon Jesty" was apparently a pseudonym but for whom I dunno. The author's entire literary output at least under that name seems to have consisted of this novel and one other "River Niger" published in 1935; the only possible clue to his identity is some kind of undefined connection with T.E. Lawrence who provided a strange sort of preface to the latter book based on an advance reading of the manuscript. Great noir-ish jacket illustration by the great Arthur Hawkins Jr. .
