4to., 368 pages, colour and numerous black & white illustrations, original blue cloth, spine lettered in silver. A fine clean copy in a VG+ dustwrapper lightly sunned on spine but unaffecting the lettering (as is common with this work). The complete history and story of the two sports tennis and rackets. A detailed study into the origins of lawn tennis and squash, with commentary on the development of the sports over the decades. Includes reference to every tennis and rackets club in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and France at the time of writing, with a short history of each club. There is also an invaluable statisical section listing the winners of the main events in both games since records began. LORD ABERDARE, 4th Baron, was a Conservative minister in the early 1970s and a fine athlete who excelled in racket sports. Lord Aberdare was a lifelong devotee of real tennis, winning the British amateur singles championship four times between 1953 and 1957, and the amateur doubles championship four times between 1954 and 1961. He served as president of the Tennis and Rackets Association from 1972 until 2004. During his tenure there was a significant expansion in both real tennis and rackets, and a number of new courts were built while several others were re-opened. His book is the most comprehensive modern reference for these sports.

hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Tindal is notable for defending Queen Caroline in her 1820 adultery trial, and for introducing the special verdict 'Not Guilty by reason of insanity', in the case of Daniel M'Naghten. The letter is undated, but Tindal states that it was a written a week after the death of Rev. John Kirk, Rector of Thwing, which took place on 6 November 1827 (see Kirk's death notice, Gent. Mag., November 1827). 3pp., 4to. Bifolium. In fair condition, aged and worn. Folded four times. Tindal begins his letter: 'My dear Lord Chancellor, | I am requested by my friend, the Revd. T. Foord Bowes, who I believe is not altogether unknown to your Lordship, to use what Interest I may have with you, in his favour, as an applicant for the Living of Thwing in the County of York, which became vacant by the sudden death of the late Incumbent in the course of last week.' He proceeds to describe Bowes's attainments: 'Mr. Foord Bowes is a Master of Arts of Trinity College Cambridge, who has lived from the time of his quitting the University in a House belonging to a small property of his own, in the immediate Vicinity of the parish. His Father was the Rector of this Living some years since, and he himself has performed the Duty as Curate for the last 20 years, to the greatest satisfaction of the Parishioners. During this time he has been an active Magistrate of the West Riding of the County of York.' A change in Bowes's circumstances has 'made this Living a very great and important Object to him, independely of the Value which he sets upon it, from his long and early association with it'. Lyndhurst has endorsed the letter in faint pencil on the reverse of the second leaf, the writing being difficult to decipher. In the event the living being presented to William Joseph Butler. For the subject of the letter, Timothy Fysh [or Fish] Foord Bowes (1777-1861), see Alum. Cantab. He was Chaplain to King George IV, Deputy Clerk of the Closet to King William IV, and Chaplain to Queen Victoria. In 1845 he was successfully sued by a former groom for criminal conversation.
