Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. First edition. A First Edition copy of this biographical work by Charles Morgan titled 'Epitaph on George Moore'. First Edition. Collated complete. Charles Langbridge Morgan (1894 1958), was an English-born playwright and novelist of English and Welsh parentage. He was awarded the Legion of Honour in 1…936, a promotion in 1945, and was elected a member of the Institut de France in 1949. From 1953 he was the president of International PEN. While Morgan enjoyed an immense reputation during his lifetime and was awarded the 1940 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction, he was often criticised for excessive seriousness, and is now rather neglected; he once claimed that the "sense of humour by which we are ruled avoids emotion and vision and grandeur of spirit as a weevil avoids the sun. It has banished tragedy from our theatre, eloquence from our debates, glory from our years of peace, splendour from our wars." The character Gerard Challis in Stella Gibbons"s Westwood is thought to be a caricature of him. The subject of this book, George Augustus Moore (1852 1933) was an Irish novelist, short-story writer, poet, art critic, memoirist and dramatist. Moore came from a Roman Catholic landed family. He originally wanted to be a painter, and studied art in Paris during the 1870s. There, he befriended many of the leading French artists and writers of the day. In a quarter cream cloth binding with marbled boards. Externally generally smart, with mild wear to the extremities, and minor bumping. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean with only some very light spotting. Very Good. Unamed (illustrator). book.

Cloth. Zustand: Good Only. A copy of the popular 'Rattlin the Reefer' by Edward Howard, edited by Captain Frederick Marryat. Author's Edition. Bound in blue covered cloth boards with gilt lettering. Captain Frederick Marryat (July 10, 1792 August 9, 1848) was an English novelist, a contemporary and acquaintance of Charles Dicken…s, noted today as an early pioneer of the sea story. He is now known particularly for the semi-autobiographical novel Mr Midshipman Easy and his children's novel The Children of the New Forest. 'Rattlin, the Reefer' was edited by Frederick Marryat for his friend and fellow captain Edward Howard. For several generations, however, people thought it was actually written by Marryat. From the main character's early schooling, to his life as a midshipman, to his experiences aboard ship, this work offers an accurate insight into the life as a naval man during the period, inevitably drawing heavily on both Marryat and Howard"s own experiences in the navy. Like many of Marryat's books, this book is thought to be autobiographical although this was never specifically confirmed by Captain Howard himself. While almost unknown to modern audiences, Edward Howard's writing has been favourably compared to that of Tobias Smollett and Herman Melville. The binding is generally firm. There is wear to the extremities including bumping, some marking and a 2.5" tear to the spine. The spine is cocked. The rear inner hinge is strained and the frontispiece and tissue guard are loose but present. Internally the pages are slightly browned to the edges with the odd handling mark. There is a small ink inscription to the front free end paper. Good Only. Unamed (illustrator). book.
