8vo, pp. iv; 220; chromolithograph frontispiece; bound with, as issued: The three scouts. By the author of "Cudjo's cave," etc., imprint as above, pp. iv, 174, [2]; contemporary half brown calf over marbled boards, black morocco label on gilt-paneled spine; spine a bit scuffed, all else very good. Cudjo's cave was first published in the UK by Trübner in 1864. This is the first publication in the UK of Cudjo's cave together with its sequel, The three scouts. These two titles were later issued separately by Ward, Locke, and Tyler in September and November 1868. On the verso of the last leaf of The three scouts is a notice from the publisher: "Originally it was the Editor's intention to have supplemented the story of The three scouts with an account of the most famous among the Federal and Confederate leaders. Another narrative, however, has been written, so full of incident and interest as to procure for it a preference over the biographies of American generals. This narrative - entitled Cudjo's Cave - has even greater merit than The Three Scouts; and, together, they form and admirable history of some of the extraordinary events of the Great American Civil War. Cudjo's cave, as it acquaints us with the earlier life and exploits of a few of the personages figuring in The Three Scouts should, in the binding, proceed the tale just concluded." BAL 20413 noting three London reviews for this edition in November and December, 1867. OCLC dates this edition 1868, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't available by Christmas,1867.

Paris, May, 1875. (Note: page preceding Table of Contents). Henry Vizetelly (1820-1894) was a journalist and publisher whose "first serious exposure to wine came in 1869 when he was commissioned by the Pall Mall Gazette to write a series of articles on the french vintage.". Vizetelley was livingin Paris when the Franco-Prussian war broke out, was captured and only narrowly escaped execution. Following the war he took up residence outside of Paris and resumed [his] "studies of the more famous wines of the world and every succeeding au;tumn for the next half dozen years. I visited scores of celebrated vineyards in Champagne, the center and south of France, along the Rhine and Mosell and in the Palatinate.'.". He was a true scholar of wine and especially of the sparkling wines of France. "Even Vizetelly, for all his research and devotion to Champagne, could not answer the perennial question: 'Who invented sparkling Champagne?". (Gabler). "This subtle-fluid, to the palate so grateful, to the senses so exhilarating, to the heart so forcing, the intellect so exciting or so deadening, which lifts man into a higher sphere, or degrades him to the lowest."
