Some mild marks and scuffs on endpapers, else internally neat, clean, bright and tight barring a library stamp on title page verso. In a plain dust jacket (jacket is lightly chipped at edges, especially at spine head, lightly worn and discoloured around spine). A new work claiming admission at a late date among the works of a major literary figure such as Sterne is a rare event, but that is exactly what his work does. The preface and lengthy introduction set out Miss Shaw's case, now widely accepted, for asserting these letters should be attributed to Sterne. The title page is a facsimile of that which appeared on the first edition in 1779 and the typescript taken from the British Museum copy. There was no edition of this work, originally claimed by and attributed to a scurrilous hack, William Coombe, between its first publication in 1779 and this 1929 edition under the editorship of Shaw.

Binding tight. 128pp Margaret Fay Shaw took her first photographs of the Hebrides in 1924 whilst travelling through the islands by bicycle. It was her photography which first brought her to the attention of folklorist John Lorne Campbell, and after their marriage in 1935 they began their unique career together, creating the world's finest treasury of Hebridean song, story, image and folklore. Her collection of some 9,000 photographs and film were taken mainly on the Hebridean islands of Uist, Barra, Mingulay, Eriskay, Canna and the Irish Aran Islands, and form a key part of the magnificent Campbell collections at Canna House, where she and John made their home for 60 years. In 1981 they gifted the island of Canna and its collections to the National Trust for Scotland, who now curate the material for future generations to enjoy. This book features over 100 of the best of Margaret Fay Shaw's Hebridean photographs, with extended captions by Fiona J. Mackenzie and an introductory essay by the collection's former archivist Magdalena Sagarzazu. Size: 250mm x 295mm. Fay Shaw, Margaret (illustrator). Book.…

Life was an American magazine published weekly until 1972, as an intermittent "special" until 1978, and as a monthly from 1978 to 2000. During its golden age from 1936 to 1972, Life was a wide-ranging weekly general interest magazine known for the quality of the photography. Originally, Life was a humor magazine with limited circulation. Founded in 1883, it was developed as being in a similar vein to the British magazine, Punch. This form of the magazine lasted until November 1936. Henry Luce, the owner of Time, bought the magazine in 1936 solely so that he could acquire the rights to its name, and launched a major weekly news magazine with a strong emphasis on photojournalism. Luce purchased the rights to the name from the publishers of the first Life but sold its subscription list and features to another magazine; there was no editorial continuity between the two publications.
