Provenance: Brigit ('Biddy') Ursula Hope Barlow and Erasmus Darwin Barlow, 2 October 2002 (1916-2004 and 1915-2005, autograph presentation inscription on title 'Biddy & Erasmus With best wishes Willie Dalrymple 2nd October 2002', apparently written in two campaigns, with the words '& Erasmus' and 'With best wishes' inserted into the inscription 'Biddy Willie Dalrymple 2nd October 2002'; their library at Digswell Manor, Ashwell, Hertfordshire) -- Wendy Ford, Ashwell, Hertfordshire, 14 May 2006 (printed booklabel on half-title, with manuscript note 'Bought house sale 14.05.06. Ashwell Digswell Manor' on 'Post-It' on half-title) -- G. David, Cambridge (bookseller's ticket on upper pastedown). ¶¶¶First edition. White Mughals marked a shift in Dalrymple's writing from travel-writing to a more historical style, and explores Anglo-Indian society in the late 18th and early 19th centuries through the life of James Achilles Kirkpatrick, examining the phenomenon that he terms 'transculturation', whereby the British and Indian characters permeated each others' cultures. It was the first title in Dalrymple's 'Company Quartet' -- the others are The Last Mughal (2006), Return of a King (2012), and The Anarchy (2019) -- and White Mughals won both the Woolfson Prize for History and the Scottish Arts Council Book of the Year Award. This copy appears to have been originally inscribed by the author to Biddy Barlow on 2 October 2002, and then at a later point Dalrymple has added the name of her husband, the physician and psychiatrist Erasmus Barlow, and the words 'With best wishes' with a different pen. Erasmus Barlow FRCPsych, FZS was the great-grandson of Charles Darwin, and was educated at Marlborough College, Trinity College, Cambridge (where Dalrymple had also studied), and University College Hospital. In addition to his roles as senior lecturer and honorary consultant in psychological medicine at St Thomas's Hospital Medical School, Barlow also served as Vice Chairman of the Mental Health Research Fund and Secretary of the Zoological Society of London. ¶¶¶FURTHER INFORMATION: please contact us for further information about this item and prices for shipping.
