Fine unread condition dark blue boards, navy blue cloth spine, silver front cover lettering and silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by William F. Buckley, Jr.; Auth…or Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction by John Leonard; Index and About the Author. "This is the first full-bodied, wide-ranging collection of Bill Buckley's essays, columns, letters, enthusiasms, criticism, analyses, and reflections since his bestselling book Right Reason eight years ago. Here, he proceeds from Assailing to Celebrating, to the reader's - if not always the subject's - delight. He draws first blood in his eloquent, incisive attentions to Jesse Jackson, Mario Cuomo, Ross Perot, and selected short subjects (though, to be fair, Jesse and Mario are tall). In other sections, Reflecting, Playing, Appreciating, he writes of Gorbachev and Clarence Thomas, Ted Kennedy and Elizabeth Tayllor, Bob Dylan and Princess Di, Jack Kemp and Theodore White. His themes cover the fall of communism ("Lest We Forget"); the fall of academic standards and integrity ("Passion Among the Ivypersons,"); the Gulf War and the Los Angeles riots; the disappearance of sin (from view or from debate); and the Reagans, Clare Boothe Luce, William Shawn, Sidney Hook, Malcolm Muggeridge, Richard Nixon, and others whose passing from life or from office he movingly, pointedly remarks upon. All in all, this volume is prime, vintage, mature Buckley. As Alistair Cooke observed, in the 1990s, Buckley continues doing "out of right field what Orwell was doing out of left field in the 1930s." - from the inner front jacket flap. Osnos, Naomi (book design); Carpenter, Andy (jacket design); Lukas, Jan (jacket photograph) (illustrator).

A micro-film of the journals was held by the University of Western Ontario, and a few individual issues are scattered in libraries. A slice of extraordinarily enlightening literature detailing the concept of earth as circular plane and its late nineteenth century revival. After Parallax's (Samuel Rowbotham's nom de plume) death in 1884 his followers carried on the crusade. The Universal Zetetic Society founded in 1890, published this journal with a thousand subscribers. The society remained active well into the twentieth century, declining after World War I. "The Earth Not a Globe Review. A Magazine of Cosmographical Science" (later subtitled, "A Magazine of Scientific Information") was the official organ of the Universal Zetetic Society, established by Lady Elizabeth Ann Mould Blount in 1893. It continued the zetetic campaign to prove the Earth flat and stationary; in general, shaped as disc with perimeter of southern walls of ice and mountains known as Antarctica w/sun, moon, and heavens rotating above. Lady Blount, wife of Sir Walter de Sodrington Blount, later founded and edited the journal "Earth" from 1900 to 1904. The term 'zetetic' originates from "proceeding by inquiry," 1640's, from Modern Latin zeteticus, from Greek zetetikos "searching, inquiring," from zetetos, verbal adjective of zetein "seek for, inquire into." William Carpenter, a significant contributor to this collection, published "One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Not a Globe" in 1885 prior to these journals. Carpenter lived from 1830 -1896. A printer from Greenwich, England, he was a leading proponent of the concept of earth as relatively plane-like and disc-shaped in design. As an accolyte of English writer Samuel Rowbotham (1816-1885), or 'Parallax,' they produced the pamphlet "Zetetic Astronomy" in 1849. In 1864, Carpenter published "Theoretical Astronomy Examined and Exposed - Proving the Earth not a Globe" utilizing the psuedonym of 'Common Sense'. He later emigrated to Baltimore, Maryland and in 1885. Finally, there was the leaflet journal "Carpenter's Folly" of which only a few ephemeral issues, possibly just two, though several or many for each issue, were printed in 1887. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
