Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. First edition. light wear to the book and jacket which has a creased rear flap; top edge dusty, else clean and unmarked. First printing, no others noted. The enormously popular stories (by Sommerville and Ross) juxtaposed the comic and the serious, capturing the dialect of the servants who ministered in the vast, drafty houses of their "betters." Even after Martin's death in 1915, Somerville continued to list her cousin's name as collaborator. This unique relationship is here explored in letters, diaries and photographs that not only limn the separate and entwined lives of two talented women but also illumine a vanished world. Gifford Lewis, a British writer and academic, has previously published books on Scots and Irish genealogy and paleography. Her interest in the two women began like so many others as an avid reader and became that of the serious scholar. Most items ship with free delivery confirmation, electronic tracking and jacket protectors (generally over $10.00) if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition hardcover in rust paper covered boards with bright gilt spine title. Spine ends bumped, tips still sharp. Non-authorial gift dedication on fep, ink remainder mark at foot of page block, else fine. 251 page text shows no soil or tears. Original, unclipped dust wrapper has a lightly sunned backstrip that extends around to both gutters, displays well in new protective mylar. Profusely illustrated including approx 200 drawings and paintings by Edith Somerville, and photos taken from the family archives, this volume provides a rich visual survey of the quirky, romantic, ebullient world of the Anglo-Irish. Edith OEnone Somerville and Martin Ross were two extraordinary women. Cousins and products of the Irish ascendancy world, they reacted both favorably and unfavorably towards their environment to present in their books a deceptively indulgent view of the Irish and English together, an 'unstable broth' of Anglo-Irish. The reality of their lives was somewhat different. Each was gifted, but it was only in collaboration that they would fulfill their true potential. When Martin Ross died in 1915, their profound, sisterly love survived the grave, and Edith continued - through spiritual communication - to see herself as collaborating with her dead cousin, whose name she never ceased to add to the title pages of her books (until very late in her writing career). As well as examining this extraordinary and touching story of selfless attachment, the book provides a vivid picture of the two women's often surprising reactions to Irish Home Rule and presents in particular Edith Somerville in the fascinating alternative guises of Master of Fox Hounds (The West Carbery Foxhounds), spiritualist, gifted artist and practical feminist. Below we see Edith on her favorite, the dappled gray mare, Bridget, and Martin riding 'Confidence', prior to her fall off 'Dervish' while hunting. She suffered prolonged bouts of invalidism after this accident in November 1898. Below that is Edith painting out-of-doors.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good-. Trade Edition. This book is in Very Good- condition and is lacking a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean condition. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have edge wear, rubbing, and spots of fraying and chipping. The top spine end has lost about half an inch worth fo the cloth. All of the cloth covers have fading and sunning. The text pages are generally clean, though there are spots of noticeable foxing throughout. There is a previous owner's ink stamped name on the first free page. "Juvenal is credited with sixteen known poems divided among five books; all are in the Roman genre of satire, which, at its most basic in the time of the author, comprised a wide-ranging discussion of society and social mores in dactylic hexameter. The sixth and tenth satires are some of the most renowned works in the collection. The poems are not individually titled, but translators have often added titles for the convenience of readers.".
