Light Wear. Scarce. Emile Joseph Dillon (1854 - 1933) Was An Irish Author, Journalist And Linguist. Dillon Initially Trained For The Priesthood; However…, He Abandoned All Plans For A Career In The Church When He Was 21, And Immersed Himself In The Study Of Oriental Languages At The Collège De France In Paris. He Later Was Awarded The Degree Of Doctor Of Philosophy By The University Of Leipzig, And Obtained Two Further Doctorates, In Oriental Languages And Literature From The Catholic University Of Leuven, And In Comparative Philology From The University Of Kharkiv. He Was Russian Correspondent Of The Daily Telegraph From 1887 To 1914 And, For A Short Time, Was Professor Of Sanskrit, Classical Armenian, And Comparative Philology At The University Of Kharkiv. He Was A Friend And Associate Of The Russian Statesman Sergei Witte, Whom He Accompanied In 1905 To The Peace Conference At Portsmouth, New Hampshire Which Formally Brought To An End The Russo-Japanese War. This Book Is Dedicated To Witte. He Also Reported The Dreyfus Trial Of 1899, The Boxer Rebellion In 1900, And The Versailles Peace Conference In 1919. When Working As A Journalist, Dillon Occasionally Disguised Himself In Order To Observe The Action From Closer Quarters, As Was The Case When He Was Sent By The Daily Telegraph To Report On The Turkish Massacres Of Armenians In 1894-1895. He Sometimes Used The Pseudonym E.B.Lanin.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. DILLON, Emile Joseph. Leaves from Life. London: Dent. 1932. 8vo. First edition. Publisher's file copy with hole punch 'file copy' to title page and dedication page, discreet stamp behind front flap. An otherwise bright copy, the dark blue cloth clean…, the gilt bright, the binding tight and square. The contents clean throughout. The dust jacket priced 7s 6d net to front flap, some shallow chips around the spine head and tail, a few light marks and other, smaller chips and nicks, but a sharp copy. An uncommon and uncanny volume, written a year before the author's death and off the back of a lifetime of international travel, working primarily as reporter for The Daily Telegraph. Dillon was a master of classical, Oriental, and European language, travelling extensively and the volume is a compilation of "strange people in out-of-the-way corners of Europe and in her great capitals figure in episodes that are now thrilling, now weird, now farcical, but invariably entertaining". Stories include 'The Dead Hand', 'The Most Mysterious Robbery on Record', 'In Quest of a Bride', 'What befell a Lone Lady Traveller in the Eighties', monks, crooks, gypsies, Demi-mondaines, spies, and detectives. Not in Hubin. Scarce.
