Not in Halkett & Laing. Toole Stott (English Conjuring) 557. According to Jessel, unexpurgated copies are "of the greatest rarity," although Toole Stott says "I have come across more copies of the unexpurgated edition than of the expurgated." Following publication, the book "was immediately called in on account of the libellous [sic] matter in the eighth chapterof 'Evil-disposed Personages,' pp. 311-438." Rouge et Noir ( also called *Trente et Quarante") is a 17th-century game of French origin played with cards on a special table, whose name derives from the colors (red and black) marked on the table layout, or tapis.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition of authors' work on power, authority, and influence. Octavo, original half cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the authors on the front free endpaper, "For John and Joan with the affectionate good wishes and, more than that, our real love - Gene and Sally." The recipients, American journalists Joan Didion and Jo…hn Gregory Dunne met in the late 1950s when Didion was working for Vogue. They were soon married and both picked up writing work from book publishers and magazines, traveled together on journalism assignments, and established a working pattern that served for the next 40 years. They had a constant advising, consulting, and editing collaboration. Critically acclaimed bestselling books followed for each, including Dunneâs The Studio and Didionâs Slouching Towards Bethlehem. Didionâs work, in particular, engaged audiences in the realities of the counterculture of the 1960s, the Hollywood lifestyle, California culture, and California history. Writing at the same time Bradlee was acting as executive editor of The Washington Post, Didion gained a reputation as a pioneer of the New Journalism style of news writing and recognition for her sensational novels, including her first nonfiction book, Slouching Towards Bethlehem, a collection of magazine pieces about her experiences in California. In 2005, Didion won the National Book Award for Nonfiction and was a finalist for both the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Pulitzer Prize for The Year of Magical Thinking, a memoir of the year following the death of her husband. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Amy McHenry. From the library of Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne.

In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. Octavo. 20cm. Publisher's original blue linen spine, over pasteboard, with a paper title label to spine. 456pp. [pages 311-438, excised due to libellous content]. Bumping to corners, most noticeable to the lower front, some sunning of the spine cloth, soiling, and a small cosmetic split to the tail of the spine, s…trong and tight; internally clean, with the bookplate of Sir Joseph Pullen, Baronet, to the front pastedown, edges untrimmed, hand colored frontispiece of dissolute rakes playing roulette, rear endpapers with tear to lower corner. A very good, solid copy in original publisher's boards. A searing, and at the time controversial, indictment of the excesses of gaming and gambling in Regency London. One of the few periods in British history when social standing was simultaneously highly defined to the most ridiculous degrees, but also in certain spheres, without physical boundary. One of the driving forces for this blurring of the lines was sport, with boxing and gaming in particular being drivers for the nobility to mix with and appreciate the skills of, the lower orders. It was at the same time expected of the aristocracy to rub shoulders with prize fighters, jockeys, and their ilk in cockpits and the yards of coaching inns, whilst also being decried as symptomatic of a decay in the standard of the aristocratic product. Gambling, often to excess, was seen as a pre-requisite of nobility, and to be taught to fence by Angelo, or stand a couple of rounds in the ring with a Cribb or a Mendoza, were vied for honors amongst the smart set. The first requirement of a gentleman was fearlessness, the second to take a loss carelessly on the chin - paying one's bills ranked rather lower down the scale. Dunne's intent was to name and shame the major practitioners of the worst gaming sins; the ruination of younger men dragged into debt by peer pressure and criminal manipulation, and the exploitation of them by older, more dissolute, and less well off members of their own class of which there were legion. The book was significantly visible among its targets to warrant suppression of the chapter in which Dunne named names and pointed fingers; opinions differ among collectors as to the relative rarity of suppressed vs. unsuppressed, with the general opinion being that the lawyers were a little slow and significant enough copies slipped through as to make scarcity a moot point.
