Zustand: FINE. First thus- a trade paperback. A book with articles by more than 30 contributors - on the "chemical, biological, cultural, psychological, and experiential dimensions of psilocybin mushrooms." It includes firsthand accounts of the Harvard Psilocybin Project, including the Concord Prison and Good Friday studies - the editor, Ralph Metzner, was part of that project with Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert (later Ram Dass).

The rediscovery of these visionary mushrooms by the Mazatec healer Maria Sabina and mycologist R. Gordon Wasson ignited a worldwide mushroom culture that inspired the consciousness revolution of the 1960s."

4to (280 x 220mm), pp. [iv], iii, [i], 391; title a little foxed, and somewhat spotted occasionally throughout; else a fine copy, uncut in the original blue boards, white paper spine (rubbed but sound). First and only edition: there was another issue (undated) with a London bookseller added to the imprint, but clearly this is the original issue, even though some cataloguers date that one to 1800. This skilful versification of the Gospels is posthumously published: Ralph Darling (1728-98) had been a physician and twice Mayor of Hull. The book was issued by subscription, and as might be supposed, the majority of those taking copies were from Hull or surrounding areas. William Wilberforce, who MP for Hull at this time and was of course a very earnest member of the Clapham Sect, is among those listed. Johnson, Provincial Poetry, 251 (the Hull-London issue).

Draft script for the 1944 film, complete through page 94, scene 203. The remainder is not present, but the condition of the script would suggest that this draft is as issued. Copy belonging to an unknown crew member, with annotations in manuscript pencil and blue pencil throughout, regarding dialogue changes, direction, and camera setup. The second installment in the "Inner Sanctum" series, after "Calling Dr. Death" (1943), also directed by Le Borg, based on the 1943 story, "Conjure Wife," by Fritz Leiber, Jr. Professor Norman Reed (Chaney, Jr.) falls in love with an exotic native woman (Gwynne). What Prof. Reed doesn't know is that his exotic wife was raised by superstitious natives who taught her to trust her faith in voodoo. With Chaney, Jr., in an early role where he wasn't portraying a ghoulish monster, and more fun had by the cast off-screen than would its viewing audience, the film was essentially a silly romp. Leiber's story wouldn't get its official screen treatment until 1962 with "Burn, Witch, Burn," directed by Sidney Hayers, script by Richard Matheson, and starring Peter Wyngarde and Janet Blair. Lacking front wrapper. Title page present, dated November 15, 1943, with credits for screenwriters Darling and Weisberg, and novelist Leiber, Jr. 99 leaves, mimeograph on pink stock, with yellow revision pages throughout, dated 11-18-43.

First inklings of self-government and nationhood for Australia 2 volumes. Folio; one disbound, one with original blue printed paper wrappers, each stabbed and sewn as issued. Comprising - 'New South Wales. Papers explanatory of the Charges brought against Lieut. Gen. Darling, by William Charles Wentworth, Esq.' London, Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be printed, 1 July 1830. Number 586 - 'Report from Select Committee on the Conduct of General Darling, while Governor of New South Wales. With the Minutes of Evidence and Appendix'. London, Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be printed, 1 September 1835. Number 580 Official parliamentary papers, recording a biased account of the famous case brought by William Wentworth, an early proponent for Australian self-government, against the then Governor, Sir Ralph Darling, but essential, only offering Darling's defence, and not Wentworth's. The young William Wentworth (1790-1872), led a peripatetic youth. However, his "adventurous spirit, drought, and the desire to discover new pastures led him in May 1813, in company with William Lawson, Gregory Blaxland, four servants, four horses, and five dogs, to take part in the first great feat of inland exploration, the crossing of the Blue Mountains". The ease with which they accomplished their mission, which established a stock route, gave impetus to great pastoral expansion. Passionate about Australia, in 1819, Wentworth published 'A Statistical, Historical, and Political Description of the Colony of New South Wales and Its Dependent Settlements in Van Diemen's Land, With a Particular Enumeration of the Advantages Which These Colonies Offer for Emigration and Their Superiority in Many Respects Over Those Possessed by the United States of America'. His book did stimulate emigration, and was reissued in revised and enlarged editions in 1820 and 1824. Intent on achieving freedom of the press, trial by jury, and taxation by consent, in the colony of New South Wales, the third edition of the vehemently attacked the report of Commissioner Bigge, who had been censorious of Governor Macquarie's emancipist policies and fair dealings. In 1826, Wentworth seized on the death of a Private Suggs, in custody, as a pretext for attacking the autocratic government of Governor Ralph Darling (1772-1858). He alleged the illegality of Darling's act, and demanded his recall to England. The affair rapidly developed into a bitter feud, and the resulting cases occupied the Supreme Court through 1828 and 1829. All of which is recorded in these papers. Eventually, Darling served out his tenure and departed for England in 1831. By taking up the "fight against autocracy and by his imperious courage and oratory in the defence of emancipists at the Bar Wentworth had awakened a political instinct among the smaller people of Sydney and become their hero. He had touched both journalism and the Bar with the fire of his brilliance and given them definition, direction, and the vision of greatness: he may justly be called their prophet in the Australian nation, if not the prophet of that nation itself. The larger fight remained: for the great goal of self-government. But, even as the people of Sydney were flocking out to Vaucluse to join with the popular hero in celebration of the tyrant's departure, changes in Wentworth's own life and activities were beginning to cause disillusion among many who only partially understood his aims. With the swelling tide of immigration into New South Wales, the exclusive-emancipist issue was receding into the background of politics. So fast were events moving that in 1835, when Darling was cleared of Wentworth's charges and knighted, there were few in Sydney who showed concern" (Persse). Ferguson, 1355; Persse, 'Australian Dictionary of Biography', online.

Only edition, 4to, pp. [4], iii, [1], 391, [1]; contemporary quarter tan calf over marbled boards; rebacked, old spine and spine label neatly laid down; very good and sound. Put to verse, this is an unusual treatment of the four gospels. Subscriber list notes takers for approximately 175 copies, so the edition was likely a small one. Not in Darlow & Moule.
