First edition. 8vo., cloth. London, John Murray. A presentation copy, inscribed on the front free endpaper 'L.S.Amery with kindest regards and grateful thanks from Roberts 18th March 1911', underneath which Amery has annotated with a star next to 'grateful thanks' 'For writing part II. LSA'. Some pencilled side-linings in the text, contents leaf annotated LSA next to 'part II The Military and Naval Situation'. An answer to General Sir Ian Hamilton's book, published in 1910, two copies of which are in this catalogue. Roberts had published a National Service Bill in the House of Lords in 1909, at a time of great fear of possible German invasion plans, but failed to win over either of the main political parties. The aim of the bill was to establish a fighting force which would be able to withstand an invasion should the regular army be occupied abroad. Hamilton and Roberts were friends, but the debate caused a rift between them. Of the three chapters only one was written by Roberts, 'The Nation's Peril', one other is by Leo Amery as evidenced by the inscription, the other was written by Professor J.A. Cramb. Amery was a Conservative politician well known for his interest in military preparedness, which he displayed anew before the Second World War as one of Churchill's few supporters over the issue of appeasement. Covers and endpapers badly damp-stained.

Presentation copy in the publisher's fine presentation binding, inscribed on the blank before the half-title: "Miss Nellie Samuel, with kindest regards and best wishes, from the Author, Roberts F[ield] M[arshal]. 7 April 1903". This was clearly intended as a wedding gift, as on the same day the recipient married Major Walter Henry Levy of the Royal Army Service Corps. Nellie Iondies (1883-1962), as she became after marriage to architect Basil Ionides, was the daughter of Sir Marcus Samuel, later Lord Bearstead, founder of Shell and Lord Mayor of London. She was described by the Daily Chronicle as "one of the richest women in England" (cited in Glaister, p. 83). Her husband's family were notable connoisseurs, and she herself became an expert on Chinese ceramics. Her first husband, Major Levy, who died in 1923, was awarded the DSO for services during the First World War. "Roberts was perhaps the ablest field commander since Wellington - quick to grasp a situation, bold and decisive in his solutions, and calm and confident in the face of difficulties. But he was prone to underestimate his opponents and to take risks, particularly with logistics. His performance in South Africa at the age of sixty-seven suggests that he had the potential to be one of the great commanders, but it was never tested in a European theatre" (ODNB). His fame was consolidated by Kipling's poem "Bobs", published in 1893. This is the 35th edition of Roberts's runaway best-seller, which went through eight editions or impressions in the first month of publication, January 1897, including those for the US and Indian markets. Much of volume one is taken up with his recollections of the Indian Rebellion. Riddick remarks: "Roberts recounts in swashbuckling fashion a vivid memoir from plunging cavalry charges while a young lieutenant to high level policy decisions as Field Marshal Lord Roberts of Kandahar. For forty-one years the military history of India neatly coincided with Roberts's life as he invariably landed in the middle of any significant military operation". Bruce 4073; Ladendorf 364; Raugh 6626; Riddick, Glimpses of India 401; Sorksy 909; Taylor 669. Helen Glaister, "Collecting and Display in Public and Private: A Biography of the Ionides Collection of European Style Chinese Export Porcelain, 1920-1970", PhD these, SOAS, 2020. Two volumes, octavo (212 x 137 mm). Publisher's presentation binding for Field Marshal Roberts of dark greenish blue morocco, gilt-lettered spines, covers with gilt block at centre comprising Roberts's coat of arms and decorations, framed by a thick-and-thin ruled panel with square bastion corners, banderolles above and below bearing his motto "virtute et valore", decorative gilt turn-ins, gilt-veined blue marbled endpapers, gilt edges. Vol. I with steel-engraved portrait frontispiece of Roberts by William Roffe, 7 other portraits, steel-engraved and photogravure, 6 maps and plans, 3 of them folding; vol. II with frontispiece showing the attack on the Peiwar Kotal by the 5th Gurkha Rifles, 10 other plates and portraits, 3 folding maps and a folding panorama; title pages printed in red and black, with wood-engraved vignettes. Vol. II professionally recased, discreet repairs to inner joints and the colour of the bindings subtly improved, spine of vol. I lightly sunned, customary scattered foxing. A most handsome copy.

London, [later 1900s]. A gelatin silver photograph (image size 225 × 144 mm) of the 1906 portrait of Lord Roberts by John Singer Sargent, laid down on the printed card mount of 'Emery Walker Ph. Sc.', behind glass in a contemporary painted wooden frame (external dimensions 370 × 261 mm). The mount is lightly foxed and mottled; the frame is a little rubbed and scuffed; the photograph is in fine condition. Field-Marshal Lord Roberts has signed the bottom margin of the mount in pencil ('Roberts, F.M.' ). 'Field Marshal Frederick Sleigh Roberts, 1st Earl Roberts, VC, KG, KP, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCIE, VD, PC, FRSGS (30 September 1832 - 14 November 1914) was a British Victorian era general who became one of the most successful British military commanders of his time. Born in India to an Anglo-Irish family, Roberts joined the East India Company Army and served as a young officer in the Indian Rebellion during which he was awarded the Victoria Cross for gallantry. He was then transferred to the British Army and fought in the Expedition to Abyssinia and the Second Anglo-Afghan War, in which his exploits earned him widespread fame. Roberts would go on to serve as the Commander-in-Chief, India before leading British Forces for a year during the Second Boer War. He also became the last Commander-in-Chief of the Forces before the post was abolished in 1904' (Wikipedia). In the decade prior to the outbreak of the First world War Lord Roberts had been a prominent advocate for compulsory military service in the United Kingdom, serving as president and spokesman of the National Service League from 1905. He would not live to see the introduction of compulsory military service in 1916. At the age of 82 he died of pneumonia after visiting Indian troops at St Omer on the Western Front, in his capacity as Colonel-in-Chief of Overseas and Indian Forces.

We have often talked of you both, and wondered where you were living.

After a brief comment on Tierney s ill health, he recalls how He, Alfred Torrens, and I sat next to each other at Mills School. Torrens died a few weeks ago, and now I am the only one left. He ends by sending his and his wife s condolences, and in a postscript signed R asks to be informed should you come to London . In his 1914 biography, Walter Jerrold writes that between 1842 and 1845 Roberts was pupil of a Mr. Mills at Hampton .

(See the Oxford DNB: The outbreak in 1885 of the Third Anglo-Burmese War brought Temple once more on active service, and led in 1887 to his being placed in charge of King Thibaw's capital on Thibaw's deposition. ) Roberts will be pleased to endorse the General s favorable opinion .
