In den Warenkorb1p., 12mo. Good, on lightly-aged grey paper. He notes an advertisement for Campbell's 'Lives of the Chief Justices' in that morning's Athenaeum. 'Had I been earlier aware of the preparation of the work it would have afforded me much pleasure in offering for your Lordships acceptance a Copy of the probate Copy Will of the Lord Ch…ief Justice Fitzjames which I have in my collection of M.S.S. &c.' The will is very long and contains 'much curious matter'. Although it may be too late for any notice of the will in Campbell's book, 'yet a copy shall be very much at your Lordships service, should your Lordship desire to possess it'. A postscript reads 'I sometime ago sent a Copy to Mr Foss. [i.e. Edward Foss, author of the 'Judges of England']'.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Very good. - Octavo, 7 inch high by 4-1/2 inch wide. Approximately 173 words penned on three of the four sides of a folded sheet of personalized letterhead. The letterhead from his family home of Brockhurst, Grange Road, Guernsey was used elsewhere as is indicated by the identification having a line crossed through it.…Dugmore is most probably writing from France. He writes to the American lecture manager James B. Pond that "I am to return under the instructions of the comparatively new Ministry of Information as soon as I have gathered the material I want. This will include the results of a visit to the front both with the British & American forces in France, a probable visit to the Grand Fleet, visits to the largest munitions works & ship yards. So I hope to be ready to return in September. That is to say leaving here about the middle of that month. The plan to go to the west coast California etc. will be first rate.By the way I have been a Major since Feb 10th & never knew it till the other day." He signs in full, "Very truly yrs A Radclyffe Dugmore". In a postscript he writes: "Are you mentioning the African lecture for the west?". Pond has stamped the note:"ANS'D AUG 29 1918". A few words are slightly smudged and the letter is folded twice for mailing. Very good. The big game photographer and author Major Arthur Radclyffe Dugmore (1870-1952) was also an artist, illustrating some of his books and producing a series of prints of wildlife. He traveled extensively photographing and filming animals throughout the world and particularly in Africa. The author of "The Wonderland of Big Game", "The Romance of the Beaver", "Camera Adventures in the African Wilds", and "The Romance of the Newfoundland Caribou", among others, his films include "The Wonderland of Big Game". He was the subject of a 1931 Lowell Thomas biography "Rolling Stone: The Life and Adventures of Arthur Radclyffe Dugmore".At the beginning of World War 1 Dugmore went to the battle front and recorded his experiences. He wrote of them in his book "When the Somme Ran Red". Quoting from the dust jacket of the book: "This book was written during wartime by a gassed British infantry officer incapacitated and no longer fit for service in the trenches. Dugmore was an unusual soldier who would normally have been considered too old for front line duties from the outset. He was already well into middle age at the outbreak of hostilities having spent a career as a naturalist and sportsman and it was only due to influential friends that he managed to obtain a commission in an infantry regiment - the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry. Yet this was not his first experience of the Western Front. As the German Army swept into Belgium, the civilian Dugmore-armed only with a cine camera-travelled to the front as the small Belgian Army vainly attempted to stem the advance, to experience the war at first hand. His account of this early stage of the war makes unusual and fascinating reading. After joining the army, the author joined his regiment serving in the trenches during the period leading towards the First Battle of the Somme in 1916 and it is this and his time during the battle itself that are the principal subjects in this account.".

It is so near the sea as to have the advantage of excellent fish, particularly soles and oysters. Though it stands high, it is well supplied with water from many fine springs rising in several places, besides which is conveyed to it by the waterworks. ***The lines of contravallation and vestiges of the forts of the besiegers remain visible round the town in many places. The river Colne, which passes through Colchester, encompasses it on the north and east, and served as a special means of defence in time of war. There are three bridges over it, and it is navigable within three miles of the town for ships of large burthen: up to that part called the Hythe: it is navigable for hoys and small craft close to the houses.' (quotes from page 90, vol I). ***Scarce first impression of the true first edition of the complete two-volume set, especially hard to find in their original leather bindings in nice collectable condition, with all plates and the two folding maps present. Of interest to collectors of antiquarian travel books and scholars and historians researching the history of Essex. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.***.

In den WarenkorbAll three letters 12mo: the first of three pages, and the last two one page apiece. Texts clear and complete. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Letter One: Sir Henry Vansittart Neale will be pleased to allow Grundy 'a look at his pictures' at Bisham Abbey. Gives directions. Discusses Grundy's letter in the Daily Express, complaining…about the 'crowding out' of pictures at the Royal Academy. He considers it 'no new thing: there was a very violent outcry of the same kind some forty years ago and about that time several exhibitions were organised of pictures which had been accepted and not hung [.] My quarrel with the present Academy show is not so much that it is too much cut down as that it is very badly selected [.]'. Letter Two: He is pleased that the Bisham Abbey visit has been 'fixed up', and would like 'to have a talk with you on the Academy question'. Letter Three: Explaining why the statement 'from 1768 to 1805 the Royal Academy was the sole exhibiting society of British artists' is 'all wrong'. Concludes: 'So apparently the only period during which the Academy was the sold exhibiting society was between 1791 and 1805, when the R. W. S. began'.

In den Warenkorb1p., 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged, tipped in onto leaf removed from album. After apologising for the late reply to the recipient's note he acknowledges 'the Compliment you make me'. He continues in his customary vainglorious style, appropriating Milton's words to himself: 'I am so deeply occupied in writing works I have… been writing the last 20 years, that I have scarce a moment: my audience hitherto have been fit tho few'. See Reade's entry in the Oxford DNB, which describes the negative response to his work, concluding: 'Despite the contempt of the literary world, Reade's works did have an audience, chiefly among the religious.'.
