Paperback. Condition: Good. Vintage Penguin. #S4. Duchess of Athollâs **Searchlight on Spain** is a sharp, impassioned critique of Britainâs stance during the Spanish Civil War, written from her firmly pro-Republican and anti-Franco position. Drawing on parliamentary experience and extensive documentation, she argues that the conflict exposed the true nature of European fascism and warned that Britainâs policy of non-intervention was both morally indefensible and strategically dangerous. The book blends reportage with political alarm, using Spain as a lens through which to view the wider drift toward authoritarianism in the 1930s.…

See her entry in the Oxford DNB, which describes her passionate opposition to fascism, but omits the fact that her name featured among those in the Nazi 'Black Book'. Waterston was Bute Professor of Anatomy at the University of St Andrews from 1914 to 1942. In 1913, while Professor of Anatomy at King's College, London, he was the first authority to debunk the Piltdown Man hoax. Both items are lightly aged, and both bear traces of previous mount: the second is ruckled at one edge, and has lost part of the signature, and a few words from the conclusion of the letter, which runs lengthwise along the top of the first page. Both addressed to 'Mrs. Waterston', and both signed 'Katharine Atholl'. ONE (24 January 1940): 2pp, 4to. She is 'horrified' to have had a letter she wrote some months ago returned, and asks for her 'stupidity' to be forgiven. She gives a good report of her husband's recovery: they hope to 'get north' in the week that follows. 'I am so sorry to have troubled you further by leaving my mackintosh behind. Would be useful here just now!' TWO ([8 February] 1940): 2pp, 4to. She thanks her for sending the mackintosh and is enclosing '6d for postage. I was very glad to have the oat in all the rain & snow here!' She also thanks her for 'Professor Leon's book', which she could not manage at present. She doesn't believe that she 'meant to suggest that moral courage was the highest possible virtue, though I rank it very high.' She continues with reference to 'the nation's affairs', democracy, 'the laws of sedition or libel', 'the necessity for faith' and God and 'the battle against evil'.…
