Seller: Antiquarian Bookshop, Washington, DC, U.S.A.
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. 192 pages; Frontispiece photogravure portrait of Brooke with facsimile autograph and tissue guard. Original owner's signature on ffep "Susan Mary Jay / Easter Day - 1938", otherwise contents clean and secure in original blue cloth binding with gilt lettering at front board and spine (faded at spine). From the collection of Susan Mary Jay Patten Alsop, a popular historian and a pillar of Washington society, was the daughter of a diplomat, a descendant of founding father John Jay and served with her first husband Bill Patten at the American Embassy in Paris in the 1950s. When her husband died in 1960, she married Joseph Alsop, the journalist, the following year. In the 1970s she embarked on her own literary career producing "To Marietta From Paris: 1945-1960" (1974), followed by "Lady Sackville: A Biography" (1978), "Yankees at the Court: The First Americans in Paris" (1982), and "The Congress Dances: Vienna 1814-1815" (1984). Her Georgetown homes (both with and without Alsop) hosted dignitaries, publishers and a variety of interesting people during the 1960s and 1970s including such luminaries as John F. Kennedy, Phil Graham, Katharine Graham, and Isaiah Berlin, earning her the nickname "the grand dame of Washington society," (to which she rather objected). Rupert Chawner Brooke (1887-1915) was an English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War, especially "The Soldier." He was also known for his boyish good looks, which were said to have prompted the Irish poet W. B. Yeats to describe him as the handsomest young man in England. In October 1906 he went up to King's College, Cambridge to study Classics. There he became a member of the Apostles, was elected as president of the university Fabian Society, helped found the Marlowe Society drama club and acted, including in the Cambridge Greek Play. Brooke enlisted at the outbreak of war in August 1914. He came to public attention as a war poet early the following year. Brooke's most famous collection of poetry, containing all five sonnets, 1914 & Other Poems, was first published in May 1915. It was widely popular. Brooke sailed with the British Mediterranean Expeditionary Force on 28 February 1915 but developed pneumococcal sepsis from an infected mosquito bite; he died on 23 April 1915, on the French hospital ship.
