Photogravure portrait frontispiece 21 chromolithograph plates of bird eggs numbered I-XXI 16 lithograph plates tinted chromolithographic or uncoloured depicting birds nests and landscapes lettered A-P and a folding colour map of Lapland. John Wolley 1823-1859 was an ornithologist and egg collector first becoming interested in the subject whilst studying at Cambridge. Over time he became something of an expert on the Dodo and later on the Great Auk. His studies led to travels in Europe and Scandinavia and it was during one of these trips in the 1850s that he interviewed the men that had killed the last of the Great Auk species the previous decade. Wolley fell ill after one of these foreign trips and eventually passed away at the tender age of 36. On his demise his notes and remaining egg collection passed to his close friend Alfred Newton who painstakingly edited and published Wolley's notes over the next half century. Alfred Newton 1829-1907 became one of the pre-eminent ornithologists of the age being one of the founders of the British Ornithologists' Union in 1858 and ascending to the chair of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy at Cambridge in 1866 a post that he held until his death. In these later decades Newton also edited or contributed to many other important ornithological works such as editions of Yarrell's Birds the Encyclopaedia Britannica and his own Dictionary of Birds four volumes 1893-96 but his editorship of Wolley's work was by far his crowning achievement in print. The first letter is dated September 1864 and is evidently written to James Thomas Edge 1827-1894 originally James Thomas Hurt he took his mother's maiden name early in his adult life. Newton explains that he had asked Van Voorst to send Edge a copy of the work but that the publisher had ignored his instruction to inscribe the volume with his wishes. This omission prompted Newton's belated letter which had been delayed due to a summer long bird watching trip to Spitsbergen. The later letters are both addressed to Edge's son Thomas Lewis Kekewich Edge 1856-1931 the first of these references the senior Edge's collection - the importance of certain pieces within it and the need to ticket them. Newton's final letter is dated March 1907 just three months prior to his death. He is glad that Edge has had "the 4th and last part of this book and seems to like it" and commends an extract that Edge had quoted from his father's journal in a previous letter apparently confirming a conclusion John Wolley had also come to. Interestingly Wolley's father Francis also changed surname during his adult life - taking on his wife's maiden name. Prior to becoming a Wolley Francis' surname had been Hurt. Thus it transpires that as well as sharing a keen interest in ornithology and oology John Wolley and James Thomas Edge were second cousins. The ephemera comprises an 1865 printed sale notice from the auctioneer J.C. Stevens offering a "Rare & Remarkable Egg" of a bird "presumed to be quite extinct" which he states was "probably the Dinornis ingens of Owen". Richard Owen had been sent a fragment of an unusual bone that had been excavated in New Zealand in the late 1830s. After studying it for several years he came to the conclusion that it was almost certainly a part of a bone from a giant flightless bird which he named Dinornis novaezealandiae more commonly known by its Maori name of Moa which had long since been extinct. Also inserted is a 24 pp. sale catalogue of eggs dated 1858 offered by the same auctioneer the eggs collected by John Wolley himself in Lapland the previous year. A handsome set of a what is ordinarily an uncommon work this set rendered unique with its the family association letters from the editor and the related ephemera. London: Sold by R.H. Porter unknown

Very Good. xxxviii 361 pp. ; purple cloth with green lettering on paper paste-down labels ; OCLC reports no copies held by any library ; top edge colored blue ; foxing ; name on front ep ; extremely rare John Dos Passos item features writings from disabled veterans of World War II who studied English composition while attending American University in Washington DC under Professor Don M. Wolfe who asked them to write about home friends and family the war or whatever came into their minds. THe results were so moving and impressive that Wolfe had 2000 copies printed at his own expense while all the profits from Doubleday's edition went directly to the men ; "We cannot state too emphatically that this books is presented not as a literary effort but as a series of social documents."--foreword ; "If a foreigner should ask me what Americans were like in 1946 I would hand him this book. Naturally it is not the whole story. It is only the story of a fairly small group of young men among those most hurt in body and mind by the accidents of war. But somehow putting down the war experiences that affected them most these young men have uncovered a much larger segment of the reality of our time than they themselves seem to have been aware of."--John Dos Passos ; details of each serviceman and his unit included ; authors include: Joe V.
