Add to basketALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1937). 1937 1st edition. 8vo (126 x 192mm). Pp,319. Not illustrated. Printed on blue-washed paper. Brown cloth, spine titled in gilt. D/w price 8s. 6d. net. Slight stains to cloth, browning to edges but good-plus. Stains to frayed dust-w…rapper. This book is an interesting anthology of Jefferies' work, assembled by Henry Williamson and provided by him with extensive commentary. Excerpts from nineteen of Jefferies' books are given, with a thumbnail sketch of each at the beginning. Williamson's purpose in assembling this book was to set down reasons and examples by which future generations could hold Jefferies in appropriately high regard. This book followed hot on the heels of Williamson's previous paean to Jefferies, his own reworking of Hodge and His Masters. More speculatively, this present book appeared while George Orwell was in Marrakesh, writing Coming Up For Air which itself could easily have been set off by reading this book, particularly pp9ff. Readers Coming Up For Air, and Jefferies' own books, will be aware of the irony of Jefferies being from just outside Swindon. Almost as informative about Williamson as about Jefferies, well worth a read. .

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. A new issue of Williamson's 1937 edit, with a new introduction (comprising rearranged passages from the original foreword combined with new text) plus some further fairly minimal structural revisions. 8vo. 340pp. Brown cloth lettered in gold at the spine. Top edge ver…y lightly spotted. A very crisp copy in tanned dust wrapper, price-clipped and with a little loss to spine panel ends. Former owner name neatly inked to the front endpaper. Williamson's extensive revision of Jefferies novel (here sub-titled 'A Classic of English Farming') was not met with unanimous praise: chapters are moved around or omitted entirely, others are combined and most of the headings are altered (more so in this 1946 edition).

Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition Thus. 1st Edition Thus 1938 with wood engravings by Gertrude Hermes. Ownership Inscription of Susan Connely and a presentation inscription of Henry Williamson to her. A few annotation in the hand of Williamson. Dated 1946. When HW first returned to Georgeham in October 1946 after h…is breakup of this marriage he stayed for a short while with his friends Mike and Margery Mitchell in a villagenear HW's Field at Ox's Cross and the woods of nearby Spreacombe. At this point HW fell in love with Susan Connely, the sixteen-year-old step-daughter of his friend Malcolm Elwin, who was married to Eve Connely and living by courtesy of a friend at Underborough at Westward Ho! (It was Elwin who was the key to the Chronicle being published by Macdonald.) That potential 'Barleybright' relationship was, however, terminated very firmly by the Elwins (mainly by Eve) to HW's inevitable anguish. Susan plays an important role in The Gale of the World the final volume in the Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight. From the The Hugoe Matthews collection. Hugoe Matthews (1938-2011) was an authority on the Victorian novelist and nature writer Richard Jefferies, of whose works he created probably the finest collection in private hands. In collaboration with George Miller, Matthews wrote the definitive bibliography of Jefferies' works, published by Scolar Press in 1993 and served for many years as President of the Richard Jefferies Society. The book is good++ and bright. Edges lightly rubbed. Age toned. Contents good. Pages age toned. More images can be taken upon request. Ref A1234. Gertrude Hermes. (illustrator).
