hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Hardcover. A charming miniature book from this well-known private press. Pat Sweet is noted for her many and varied miniature books and objects. This poem is an Irish ballad written by Robert Dwyer Joyce (1836-1883), a Limerick-born poet. The poem, first published in 1861, tells the story of an Irish rebel from County Wexford who leaves his lover behind to help fight against British colonial rule. The growth of the barley crop every year in the spring is said to symbolize Irish resistance to British oppression. "I sat within a valley green, I sat there with my true love, My sad heart strove the two between, The old love and the new love, - The old for her, the new that made Me think of Ireland dearly, While soft the wind blew down the glade And shook the golden barley." With several illustrations of barley. Printed and bound in Mohawk Superfine paper, with a white dust jacket of the same paper. In fine condition. Measures 2 x 3 inches. Unpaginated [34 pages].

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Hardcover. Limited Edition of 10 copies (not numbered as issued) and signed by the book artist. Designed, printed, and bound by Pat Sweet. A Scottish traditional song, often sung after the parting of friends. "This old Scottish song goes back to 1770, at least in part. The song was rediscovered and made popular by the Clancy Brothers in 1959. The song is tremendously sad, and it's tempting to think of it as a mourning song, but it was traditionally sung to a guest, sitting on his horse, drinking something that would ward off the chill on the way home. But the song has a powerful sense of 'goodbye forever', and if so, the song is blithe and brave in the face of ending, the song of someone who does not welcome death but does not fear it. If the wish to 'make a good end' still exists, this song embodies it. I've paired the lines of the song with black and white images of disregard, tiny deaths: the sadness of small things, the worn out and the cut down, the desiccated and the thrown away. It puts our own partings in perspective" (Pat Sweet). Illustrated with the artist's photographs. Bound in patterned white and black paper covered boards with black leather spine, paper title label to spine, and title label to front board. Split to binding in interior. [82 pages.] Book size: about 2.75 x 2.25 inches. MINI/080724.…
