Both courses are designed to help students avoid the worst errors of bazaar Malay, a lingua franca which most foreigners speak in the innocent belief that they are speaking real colloquial Malay."--Preface ; FAIR/FAIR.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. First Edition. xii, 246 pages. Index. Colour frontispiece illustration. Thirty-four black and white photographic plates. Maps of southwestern B.C., the district between Homathko Valley and the Waddington Group, and the district between the Waddington Group and Knight Inlet. Frequent illuminating, causti…c, and politically incorrect marginal notes by prior owner whose name, D.M. Sinclair is stamped inside boards, on title page and once to contents. We believe Mr. Sinclair was a resident of Duncan, B.C. who managed a bank in Zeballos on Vancouver Island in the early 1940s during the local gold rush. The book itself is "an account of a trip through British Columbia's dense brush to Mt. Waddington, or Mystery Mountain. The party, in part British military officers, explored and climbed the 15,000 foot mountain." - Kim Whale. Reading copy only. Binding open at half-title page. Page xi loose but present. Dust jacket not included. Laid in is a small yellowed news clipping describing a brutish B.C. crime from decades past. Despite it's poor condition, Mr. Sinclair's spicy marginal comments make this a particularly interesting copy. [Edwards & Lort 3936, Whale 1648] Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

The notable London firm of P. S. King & Son, 'Publishers, Parliamentary and General Booksellers, Bookbinders and Printers', was in existence for more than a hundred years, having been established, according to its own account, in Parliament Street in 1819, and still active until 1941, when it became P. S. King and Staples, under… which name it traded for around six years. (An advertisement for the Staples Press Limited in The Times, 14 February 1946, lists, among incorporated companies: 'P. S. King and Staples Limited | Publishers, Parliamentary and General Booksellers | Publishers to the L[ondon]. C[ounty]. C[ouncil]. and I[interational]. L[abour]. O[rganisation]. | Printing and Bookbinding | Westminster. Founded 1819.') The present collection, mainly consisting of correspondence addressed to the founder Philip Stephen King himself, is in fair condition, aged and with occasional damp staining (affecting in particular half a dozen items). Among the 36 items in the collection are signed autograph letters and notes (almost all in 12mo) from 26 individuals, among them: Sir Charles Bowyer Adderley: on letterhead of Hams Hall, Minworth, Birmingham, no date; 'H. B.': on letterhead of the House of Commons Library, 7 January 1881; Edward Baines: 32 St Mary's Road, Canonbury, 25 January 1860; John Aloysius Blake, MP for Waterford: Waterford, 14 October 1859 (listing addresses and making an addition for an entry in a biographical publication); Thomas F. Brady: on letterhead of the Office of Irish Fisheries, 12 April 1873; Sir Edward Cholmley Dering: Pluckley, 5 September [no year] ('I have left orders for my journals and Parliamentary papers to be packed and sent to you: Try and sell the former, and if not I suppose you must take them as waste at 25/ per cwt, but as they are complete, I shall hope you will be able to dispose of them to advantage'); T. de Cavalier de Cuverville, 'Capitaine de Vaisseau, Commandant le Trident': calling card, with autograph note in French addressed from Brest, 29 December 1880; Charles Louis Léon Dufresne de la Chauvinière, French Naval Attache: postcard in English from 12 Wilton Place, postmarked 27 January 1881; Ashurst Turner Gilbert ('A. T. Circestr'), Bishop of Chichester: Palace, Chichester, 4 February 1856; H. S. Hallett of the Society of Arts, 102 Park Street, Grosvenor Square, 20 January 1887 ('I have been asked to treat the same subject as the Address you have printed for the Society of Arts so I hardly know whether it is worth while to keep any of the "Addresses" After it is delivered the resolutions passed and perhaps a few press notices might be added, so I should be obliged if you will not at present break up the type as we might require further copies. Of course I have not the slightest objection to your printing for you own use or sale any copies you might wish for.'); Agnes R. Hawksley: two from Lingholt, Grayshott, Haslemere (one on letterhead), 10 and 13 April 1904 (from the former: 'Thank you so much for the autograph of the Duke of Wellington [.] I also send a letter I have of Conan Doyle's with pleasure'); Healy: on letterhead of the House of Commons Library; Bolton King: on letterhead of Gaydon, Warwick, 9 October 1902; William Knight (Professor of Moral Philosophy in the University of St Andrews): on letterhead of the Castle House, St Andrew, Scotland, 20 October 1902 ('If you have two by Dr. Chalmers, I would ask the favour (not for myself but for the University of St Andrews) to have one of them framed under his portrait in the classroom where he lectured; and, in exchange for it, you might have a letter of some eminent man'); J. A. Langford: on letterhead of Birmingham Morning News, 27 June 1872; T. Latimer: on letterhead of 143 Fore Street, Exeter, 3 June 1886 ('You by your pen are doing the best for England - as a good King might be expected to do.
