Description:
New York University Press, New York, 1958. First Edition. Hardcover (Printed Boards). Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. In his 'note to the reader' the poet states that the bare bones of his narrative are all in the ancient Greenland and Iceland sagas of the Viking voyages to Vinland. He has indulged in transposition of material and of course in a great deal of interpretative drama; but Freydis' principal acts are quite as they are said to have occurred nearly one thousand years ago. This long narrative poem is based on the Nordic legend of Freydis, half-sister of Leif Ericson, a dark woman of doom and disaster who led a group of Norsemen to Vinland - the country which her father Eric had discovered. The expedition ends in rape, internecine murder, and bloody raids by the Indians - and when Freydis returns to her native home - her final fate seems to be madness. The verse is very passable and is strongly reminiscent of the forms used by Robinson Jeffers; if it is colder, harder,… Read More

Description:
Octagon Press Ltd, London, United Kingdom, 1988. Reprint. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. In his best-selling Darkest England, Idries Shah asserts that the English hail from a little-known place called 'Hathaby', but their roots go back much farther, perhaps to the distant Asian realm of Sakasina. Once a nomadic tribe of warriors, the English fled westward, bringing with them epic tales, traditions, and an Oriental way of thought. .Shah charts the genius of the English in adopting and adapting 'almost anything spiritual, moral or material' for their own use - a faculty that has transformed them from warrior nomads into successful diplomats, businessmen, thinkers and scientists. In" Darkest England", Idries Shah makes us see England as though it were a foreign culture, & in doing so, makes apparently mundane habits, "exotic" helpinf us to see cultures, our own and that of others, more objectively. An amusing and heartfelt romp,… Read More

Description:
Bath printed by Wood & Cunningham; & sold by Williams, London, 1813. First Edition. Hardcover (Quarter Leather). Very Good Condition. b/w. frontis. engraving showing the Internment of Henry Mowbray with a view of Rock Deception & a prospect of Henry's Bay; the story in verse of David Dreadnought, the reformed English sailor, which owes its existence to a pulpit anecdote related in Bath around 1785 by the Rev. Thomas Tuppen concerning the conversion of a very profligate Sailor. This anecdote, and the impressive manner in which it was related, struck the Author's mind very forcibly, who had himself just quitted the sea service, and who then composed some lines on the subject, which formed the first part of 'Nautic Tales and Adventures in Verse' which is followed by some further account of David Dreadnought, with also the interesting narratives of John Marrant, the negro convert, and Donald Henderson, the Caledonian mariner. Whilst primarily religious in intent the poems… Read More

Description:
Perennial Library/Harper & Row, New York, 1964. First Paperback Edition. Paperback. Very Good/N/A. black titles spine; "At seven o'clock on the morning of April 14, 1865, President Lincoln came out of his bedroom, nodded to the night guard, and started down the hall to his office. At 7:22 a.m. the following morning Surgeon General Barnes pressed silver coins to his eyelids as Mrs. Lincoln moaned. The president's day was, as usual, crammed with meetings and appointments, but he was probably no busier than the man who would stand behind him at Ford's Theatre that evening. For though the plan had been a long time brewing, the time and place were not set until eleven that morning. Minute-by-minute 'The Day Lincoln Was Shot' chronicles the movements of these two men until the almost unbearable suspense snaps with a single gunshot and a leap to the stage. From a thousand bits and scraps of information Jim Bishop has fashioned an unforgettable tale of tragedy more gripping… Read More

Description:
David & Charles, Newton Abbot, Devon, 1992. Revised & Enlarged. Maroon Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. Illustrator: Paley, John & Murphy, Philip. Desolate, remote, yet full of the echoes of history, the East Anglian fens are a perfect habitat for today's wildfowler, wanderer and fisherman. They have a strange and wild history, for savage Vikings, monks, Romans, adventurers, dour Dutch drainers and a creeping race of mongrel Britons have all, in their time, navigated the slow, meandering rivers. Later, the Fenman was to wrest a precarious living from eels, fish, wildfowl, reed and peat cutting; from duck decoys, coprolite mines and herding bullocks, keeping at bay as best he might the ague and clouds of poisonous mosquitoes. The underlying theme was water, the ever present risk of floods, dykes, drains, washes, learns and cuts of his half-tamed waterland. The Fenman and his hostile terrain with its strange birds and beasts are inextricably linked. This is the story of the gunners… Read More

Bantam Books, London, 2001. Reprint. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Weakened by events in Darujhistan, the Malazan Empire teeters on the brink of anarchy. In the vast dominion of Seven Cities, in the Holy Desert Raraku, the seer Sha'ik gathers an army around her in preparation for the long-prophesied uprising named the Whirlwind. Unprecedented in its size and savagery, it will embroil in one of the bloodiest conflicts it has ever known: a maelstrom of fanaticism and bloodlust that will shape destinies and give birth to legends.In the Otataral mines, Felisin, youngest daughter of the disgraced House of Paran, dreams of revenge against the sister who sentenced her to a life of slavery. Escape leads her to raraku, where her soul will be reborn and her future made clear. The now-outlawed Bridgeburners, Fiddler and the assassin Kalam, have vowed to return the once god-possessed Apsalar to her homeland, and to confront and kill the Empress Laseen, but events will overtake them too.

Author's reflections on the "tale of adventure" in the 18th century, with particular emphasis on the Defoe classic; extensively annotated.."De la Mare's anthologies should be numbered among his creative works; for in them the quoted passages are woven together on a web of imaginative comment as highly wrought and as often as long as the quotations themselves; so that the whole emerges less as a collection of other men's writings than an expression of the thoughts aroused in the anthologists by these writings, and coloured by the mood in which he read them. These anthologies represent a new literary form invented by Mr de la Mare, which he has employed as yet another mode to express his unique vision of reality." - Lord David Cecil.
