Couverture rigide. Condition: Bon. Publisher's original brown cloth, gilt-lettered spine, blind-stamped decorative boards. Description: Revised 1902 edition of William Francis Collier's classic survey of English literature, arranged in biographical sketches from the earliest Anglo-Saxon writers through the Victorian period. Complete with the publisher's "Supplement on English Literature in America", including chapters on Washington Irving, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and other American authors, followed by a comprehensive index. The work remained one of the standard English literature textbooks used throughout the British Empire for several decades and was issued in numerous revised editions. An appealing copy distinguished by its early Florentine provenance. The front pastedown bears the attractive Art Nouveau bookseller's label of F. Lumachi, Libraio Editore, Successore dei Fratelli Bocca, Via Cerretani 8, Florence. Francesco Lumachi acquired the prestigious Florentine branch of the Fratelli Bocca bookshop in 1899 and continued operating under the designation "Successore dei Fratelli Bocca" during the early years of his ownership. This decorative bookseller's label is documented in modern scholarship devoted to Lumachi and the history of his celebrated Florentine bookshop. An early owner's contemporary Italian inscription appears on the title page, further reinforcing the volume's documented Florentine provenance. Condition: Good. Original brown publisher's cloth with gilt spine lettering and blind-stamped decoration. General rubbing and moderate shelf wear to the binding, including light wear to spine ends and corners. Binding remains firm and sound. Interior remarkably clean for a school reference work of this period, with only occasional light foxing and the expected age-toning to the paper. Complete, including the American Supplement and index. Decorative bookseller's label of F. Lumachi on the front pastedown and an early contemporary Italian ownership inscription on the title page.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Condition of hardback: Very good. It has the owner's inscription on inside cover page (photo attached of actual book.) There is no dust jacket). Random House printed 1961, First edition printed in Great Britain 1962 According to the American College Dictionary, terror "implies an intense fear which is somewhat prolonged and may refer to imagined or future dangers." When Alfred Hitchcock chooses stories to arouse terror, he is meticulously faithful to this definition. Does a haunted house frighten you? A contest between a man and a rat? Possession? Witchcraft? Does your blood chill when you think of someone being deliberately driven mad? How about a man who becomes half man, half fly? How about a tree that screams when you cut it down? Or a room that shrieks when no one is in it? Alfred Hitchcock has chosen twenty-one stories, two novelettes, and a complete novel guaranteed to terrify most normal people and even some abnormal ones. As everyone knows, he is a specialist in the macabre and bizarre. Asked to explain his approach to fictional crime, he wrote: "The blunt instrument, the gang murder, the paid assassin has always seemed to me positively indelicate. Murder is a fine art and needs the embellishment of a sophisticated imagination. The true aficionado prefers to have his nerves ruffled by the implied thread--the Borgias rather than the Syndicate. What is more delightful than a domestic crime, when it is executed with subtlety and imagination? I leave to other more pedestrian talents materials based on newspaper accounts. True crimes, ugh! Alas, most of them are dull and give no evidence of the careful planning and loving thought that should go into any human activity as rewarding as murder." 500pp.…
