Folio Society first edition of 1955, printed by letterpress, reprinted by photo-litho in 1973. 127 pages all intact, nice tight binding. All pages, text and illustrations are in really good, clean, readable order. Printed in Great Britain by The Pitman Press, Bath. Set in Poliphilus Type and bound by J.M. Dent & Sons Ltd, Letchworth. The golden island of Tahiti seemed a paradise to the sea-weary crew of H.M.S Dolphin when, in 1767, they first set foot on its shores. This account of their experiences was written by the Master, to whose vivid and unspoken narrative have been added some piquant details from the Journals of other members of his ship's company. It paints an extremely entertaining picture of what happened when a party of English sailors stumbled into a Garden of Eden. Robert Gibbings, the illustrator, knew Tahiti well, and loved it: his engravings , exquisite in detail, convey all the timeless fascination of the island better than any camera. A brilliant read and definitively a book to be preserved for future generations.…

Covers a little darkened at spine and edges, lettering-label slightly chipped, upper board sometime mildly scuffed, corners mildly rubbed, a few pages slightly foxed. Edition limited to 120 numbered copies. The "first moderately substantial Samson Press book" (Paul W. Nash) - the press had commenced business earlier that year. Flora Grierson, partner with Joan Shelmerdine in the Samson Press, was the second daughter of Herbert John Clifford Grierson (1866-1960), editor of John Donne and the first Professor of English Literature at Aberdeen University, 1894-1915, and then George Saintsbury's successor as Professor of Rhetoric and English Literature at Edinburgh, 1915-35. "This is the first book of verse he has published," declared the Samson Press's prospectus. "'If the best or only ultimate test of translation is that its result should be excellent by itself, then Professor Grierson has nothing to fear,' wrote the reviewer in the Times Literary Supplement. It was recommended by V. Sackville-West in a recent broadcast talk, 'both for the reading matter and the excellence of the printing.'" The latter is particularly pleasing. "So by this shrine the Scottish Muse may stand / Holding her statelier sister by the hand. / Bone of his bone, clay of his sacred clay / Are we who face this welt'ring storm today, / One 'happy breed of men,' one 'little world' / On whom the hissing waves of hate are hurl'd, / The envy and hatred of 'less happier' men; / Yet see o'er English meadow and Scottish glen, / On fields of France, and in far scatter'd lands, / Western sierras, Australasian strands, Mesopotamian marsh and African sands, / Through April glow of pride and shadow of pain / The sun of Shakespeare's England rise again" (last lines of "Shakespeare and Scotland", 1916).…
