Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition. Paperback. 24.5 × 17cm, 116pp. This copy from the library of Anne Powell, historian, anthologist and author on the First and Second World Wars, and signed to her by the compiler Anne Harvey. Loosely pasted in is a copy of a review from Vernon Scannell. Edward Thomas never left the train that stopped briefly at a Cotswold station, Adlestrop, just before World War I, but what he saw resulted in one of the best known and loved English poems, Adlestrop. Generations of literary pilgrims have visited the village which inspired the poem, while many of today's writers have composed their own tributes to the poet and the place where, after the closure of the station, the nameboard was lovingly retained. This anthology explores Adlestrop's literary, topographical and railway associations. Anne Harvey investigates the origins of the poem: did the train really stop 'unwontedly'? Was it an express? Was Thomas travelling alone? His fascination with the railways began in boyhood and is seen in two of his little-known short stories, 'A Third-Class Carriage' and 'Death by Misadventure'. The book also examines the connection with Jane Austen, who visited her Leigh relatives at Adlestrop Park and Rectory, and there are poems from Peter Porter, Alan Brownjohn, P.J. Kavanagh, Dannie Abse and Brian Patten. A wide selection of illustrations includes facsimiles of Edward Thomas's original manuscript and notebook entries, photographs and fine wood engravings by well-known artists. This engaging anthology will appeal to all who have read and loved this classic poem. Condition: This copy is in very good condition. Signed by Author(s).

Nisbet by John Moosy[!?]; signature of Henry C. King, Feb. 23, 1936, Slough. Very good. Thomas Edward (1814â"1886) was a Scottish naturalist born in Gosport. He was trained as a shoemaker and eventually settled in Banff, where he devoted his leisure time to the study of animal nature, and collected numerous specimens of animals, which he stuffed and exhibited, but with monetary loss. Samuel Smiles, his biographer, describes him as "one of those men who lived for science, not by science." / Samuel Smiles wrote several biographical works (many are engineers or men of science), all given with lots of details. He wrote of George & Robert Stephenson, James Brindley, Sir Cornelius Vermuyden, Sir Hugh Myddleton, Capt. John Perry, John Smeaton, John Rennie (1761â"1821), John Metcalf, Thomas Telford, Boulton and Watt, Andrew Yarranton, Benjamin Huntsman, Dud Dudley, Henry Maudslay, Joseph Clement, George Moore, Robert Dick, Phineas Pett, Francis Pettit Smith, John Harrison, John Lombe, William Murdoch, Frederick Koenig, The Walter family of The Times, William Clowes, Charles Bianconi, James Nasmyth, Josiah Wedgwood, and Thomas Edwards. / "Selections from the fauna of Banffshire, by Thomas Edward": p.

The final five years of the life of poet Edward Thomas, centred on his extraordinary friendship with Robert Frost and Thomas's fatal decision to fight in the war. The book also evokes an astonishingly creative moment in English literature, when London was a battleground for new, ambitious kinds of writing. A generation that included W. B. Yeats, Ezra Pound, Robert Frost and Rupert Brooke were 'making it new', vehemently and pugnaciously. These larger than life characters surround a central figure, tormented by his work and his marriage. But as his friendship with Frost blossomed, Thomas wrote poem after poem, and his emotional affliction began to lift. In 1914 the two friends formed the ideas that would produce some of the most remarkable verse of the twentieth century. But the War put an ocean between them, Frost returned to the safety of New England while Thomas stayed to fight for the Old. It is these roads taken, and those not taken, that are at the heart of this remarkable book, which culminates in Thomas's tragic death on Easter Monday 1917. Scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).
