Not a book but a 10-inch "nonbreakable" 33-1/3 rpm vinyl LP, Capitol L-299, near mint vinyl in a very-good-plus glossy cardboard jacket with small brown tape ghost to verso. No, Yma Sumac was not a Brooklyn waitress named Amy Camus, as scurrilously r…umored at the time. Rather, this South American singer of extraordinary four-octave vocal range, who began as a folk singer in the more traditional mold, was taken under the wing of arranger Moises Vivanca, decked out in exotic garb, and promoted in North America as an "Inca princess," which (though duly attested to by the government of her native land at the time) could presumably be equally true or untrue of any indigenous native of that continent. The pair formed a leading part of the "exotic" musical movement of the 1950s, seeking some kind of liberation from stultifying Eurocentric musical norms, a demand which was soon to find an outlet in "rock 'n roll." Catalogs $120. Here reduced from $45.

The rumor tha…t she was really a Brooklyn waitress named Amy Cumas appears to have been scurrilous. Yma Sumac was in fact the South American singer of extraordinary vocal range who was taken under the wing of arranger Moises Vivanca, decked out in gold-coin finery, and promoted in North America as an "Inca princess," which could presumably be equally true or untrue of any native of that continent.

Pagination of the two Volume-Set: "The Constant Lover / Account of the Literary Life of Kotzebue": Volume I: XIV, 203 pages / Volume II: 216 pages / Pagination for the accompanying Volume: "Pizarro": 102 pages. Hardcover / Stunnin…g, recent half leather and marbled-paper-covered-boards with gilt lettering and ornament to spine, bound to style of the 18th/19th century. All three Volumes housed in a bespoke built Solander Box (see plenty of images on our website). Excellent condition. From the library of Susannah Townsend-Meade (Ballymartle), with her name to titlepage. The accompanying Volume bears the name of one Mary Johnston. The "Constant Lover", with the "Account of Kotzebue's Life" is a very scarce publication ! August Friedrich Ferdinand von Kotzebue (German; 3 May [O.S. 22 April] 1761 23 March [O.S. 11 March] 1819) was a German dramatist and writer who also worked as a consul in Russia and Germany. In 1817, one of Kotzebue's books was burned during the Wartburg festival. He was murdered in 1819 by Karl Ludwig Sand, a militant member of the Burschenschaften. This murder gave Metternich the pretext to issue the Carlsbad Decrees of 1819, which dissolved the Burschenschaften, cracked down on the liberal press, and seriously restricted academic freedom in the states of the German Confederation. Kotzebue was born in Weimar to the respected merchant Kotzebue family and was educated at Wilhelm-Ernst-Gymnasium in Weimar, where his uncle, the writer and critic Johann Karl August Musäus was among his teachers. In 1776 the young Kotzebue acted alongside Goethe in the latter's play Die Geschwister when it premiered in Weimar. In 1777, aged sixteen, he enrolled at the University of Jena to study legal science. He continued his studies at the University of Duisburg, graduating in 1780, and practiced initially as a lawyer in Weimar. Through his association with Graf Goertz, Prussian ambassador at the Russian court, Kotzebue became secretary to the Governor General of Saint Petersburg. In 1783 he was appointed assessor to the high court of appeals in Reval, where he married the daughter of a Russian lieutenant general. He was ennobled in 1785 and became president of the Magistrat of the Governorate of Estonia, a province of the Russian Empire. In Reval his first literary works were favourably received. His novels Die Leiden der Ortenbergischen Familie (The Sorrows of the Ortenberg Family) (1785) and Geschichte meines Vaters (History of my Father) (1788) met with appreciation; even more so did his plays Adelheid von Wulfingen (1789), Menschenhass und Reue (Misanthropy and Repentance) (1790) and Die Indianer in England (The Indians in England) (1790). The good reputation of these works was, however, almost destroyed by a controversial dramatic satire, Doktor Bahrdt mit der eisernen Stirn (Doctor Bahrdt with the Iron Brow), which appeared in 1790 with the name of Knigge on the title page. Written in response to contention between J.G. Zimmermann and leaders of Berlin's party of the Enlightenment, it linked each of Zimmermann's opponents to a particular sexual perversion. Kotzebue denied authorship, even when the police began to investigate the matter. This alienated both Zimmermann and Knigge, formerly his allies, and also gained Kotzebue a reputation for dishonesty and lasciviousness that he would never shake off. After the death of his first wife in 1790, Kotzebue retired from the Russian service and lived for a time in Paris and Mainz. In 1795 he settled on an estate which he had acquired near Reval and devoted himself to writing. In the space of only a few years, he published six volumes of miscellaneous sketches and stories (Die jüngsten Kinder meiner Laune, 17931796) and more than twenty plays, many of which were translated into several European languages. In 1798 he was appointed dramatist to the court theatre in Vienna, but differences with the actors.

Add to basketCloth. Condition: Very Good. First edition. The first UK edition of this thrilling adventure novel set in South America by the popular author H. Rider Haggard. The first UK edition of this work in the publisher's original tan cloth binding, with brown ornamental borders to the front board and spine, and white end papers. Corresp…onds with all issue points for the first edition according to Scott 77, including the printer's imprint F.110 1121 to page 308. Ink inscription to the front paste down, dated 1922. Colour illustration, potentially from the original dust wrapper, tipped in to the front free end paper. An exciting adventure novel set in South America. According to Scott 77, this story was inspired by a ring owned by Haggard's private tutor. The ring apparently came from an excavated mound in South America, "on the hand of a mummified figure sitting at the head of a stone table surrounded by other figures". Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925) was an English author who specialised in adventure fiction set in exotic locations, primarily Africa. He was a pioneer of the "Lost World" literary genre. In the publisher's original tan cloth binding. Externally smart, with very light shelf wear to the joints and extremities. The odd bump to the rear board. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean, except for the odd spot to the fore edge, affecting the occasional page. Very Good. Not Stated (illustrator). book.
