Hardcover. Condition: Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. First US Edition; First Printing. Spine darkened, cloth foxing, light tone, 1931 owner's signature, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover. ; First US Edition, First Printing of this classic pioneering anthology of alternative history by historians examining counterfactual events. First published in England in 1931 as If It Had Happened Otherwise, but few stories were deleted and Van Loon's Nieuw Amsterdam added for the US. The What-If scenarios of the historians have been considered more methodical with their focus largely on outcomes of specific military battles, than the imaginative leaps of the science fiction writers.

Contents: If the Moors in Spain had won / Philip Guedalia; If Don John of Austria had married Mary queen of Scots / G K Chesterton; If the Dutch had kept Nieuw Amsterdam/ H W Van Loon; If Louis XVI had had an atom of firmness / André Maurois; If Drouet's cart had stuck / Hilaire Belloc; If Napoleon had escaped to America / H A L Fisher; If Byron had become king of Greece / Harold Nicolson; If Lee had not won the battle of Gettysburg / Winston S Churchill; If Booth had missed Lincoln / Milton Waldman; If the Emperor Frederick had not had cancer / Emil Ludwig; If it had been discovered in 1930 that Bacon really did write Shakespeare / J C Squire.; (ix), 379 pages.

Hardcover. First edition. This the first edition, first printing of the first volume appearance of Churchill's engaging speculative history essay "If Lee Had Not Won the Battle of Gettysburg". This copy is rendered doubly compelling by being an elusive binding variant and retaining the rare and striking dust jacket.This jacketed copy the only we have offered - is very good plus in a very good plus dust jacket. The green cloth binding is square and tight with bright spine gilt and sharp corners. We note only light soiling to extremities. The contents remain bright with a crisp feel and no previous ownership marks. Differential toning to the endpapers corresponds to the bright yellow dust jacket flaps, confirming that this copy has spent life jacketed. Spotting is heavy to the top edge, lighter to the fore and bottom edges, occasionally intruding into the blank inner margins. The distinctive dust jacket, printed in green and black on yellow stock, is complete apart from fractional loss to the spine head and unclipped, retaining the original lower front flap price. The spine shows only slight toning and minor wear is substantially confined to extremities. The dust jacket is protected beneath a removable, clear, archival cover. Churchill's intriguing piece first appeared in Scribner's Magazine in December 1930 as part of a series of "What If" articles by eminent authors of the time. In 1931, Longmans published this book-length work on the same theme, including Churchill's piece at pp. 173-196. This British first edition preceded an American counterpart and, oddly, we find it scarcer than copies of the original magazine publication. It becomes genuinely rare thus, in the original dust jacket, and is rendered an elusive prize when found in this variant binding of the British first edition, first printing. Per Churchill's bibliographer, Ronald I. Cohen, this variant binding is "Bound in moderate bluish green embossed calico-texture cloth" (as opposed to red cloth) and slightly reduced page size (from 235 x 151.2 mm to 217 x 140.7 mm). Churchill's essay herein displays the commanding grasp of history and the facility for extrapolation that made him so formidable as both a statesman and a writer. Moreover, his interest in America's great struggle was quite serious; Churchill toured Virginia battlefields with the great Civil War historian Douglas Southall Freeman and toured Gettysburg with none other than Dwight Eisenhower. Thirty years later, Churchill would publish a book on the subject, The American Civil War (1961), excerpted from his epic A History of the English-Speaking Peoples.

Half leather. First edition. This is the first edition, first printing of the first volume appearance of Winston S. Churchill's engaging speculative history essay "If Lee Had Not Won the Battle of Gettysburg". Churchill's intriguing piece first appeared in Scribner's Magazine in December 1930 as part of a series of "What If" articles by eminent authors of the time. In 1931, Longmans published this book-length work on the same theme, including Churchill's piece at pp. 173-196. We commissioned this magnificent binding in half red Morocco goatskin over marbled paper-covered boards. The hubbed spine features gilt tooling on and framing the raised spine bands, as well as twin dark brown spine labels. The covers feature gilt rule transitions between the Morocco spine and corners and the marbled-paper sides. The contents are bound with matching marbled endpapers, silk head and foot bands, and gilt top edge. The newly commissioned binding is flawless. The contents are crisp and clean with no previous ownership marks. The only appreciable soiling is a small stain to the upper fore edges (that does not intrude on the contents within), as well as an incidental hint of spotting confined to the fore edges. This British first edition preceded an American counterpart and, oddly, we find it scarcer even than copies of the original magazine publication.

FIRST EDITION, pp. vii, 289, 8vo, original brick-red cloth, backstrip lettered in gilt and gently faded, narrow band of fading at head of upper board, pin-hole to lower joint and bottom corners gently knocked, edges and endpapers lightly spotted, very good. A scarce book of alternative history, 'speculations by curious minds' as Squire puts it in the Introduction, with a rich list of contributors. Ronald Knox's piece is the most contemporary in its speculation, presenting - in the form of a newspaper - how it would be 'If the General Strike Had Succeeded'; Churchill considers what would have happened 'If Lee had Not Won the Battle of Gettysburg'.
