Cloth Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. A like-new, bright, clean, tight copy sans flaws. in a Mylar Protective Cover. "This book is inspired by the discovery of letters written by the captain of H.M.S. Dwarf, a Victorian gunboat sent to the Falklands at the request of the Governor to enforce a conservation regime on brutal and unprincipaled sealers. Commander Sir William Wiseman was perceptive, witty, and mildly eccentric. Through his eyes we can observe life ashore and afloat - the Islanders, the ship and her people, and the amazing wildlife and scenery which remain largely unchanged to this day." ILLUSTRATED in archival black & white photography (most full page) with accompanying descriptive captions ""A fascinating story comes to life, one which puts a microscope on both the Falkland Islands and the Royal Navy of that age, when Britannia certainly ruled the waves but in the remoter parts of the Empire things were not always what they seemed." 160 pages.

For the nearly seven decades of her reign, Her Majesty The late Queen had used clothing to create a powerful visual identity that transcends fashion and had made her perhaps the most readily identifiable person on the planet. Angela Kelly, building on the work of the great designers and milliners who have worked with Her Majesty through the years, including couturiers Sir Norman Hartnell, Sir Hardy Amies, and Ian Thomas, and milliners such as Simone Mirman and Freddy Fox, brought her own imagination to bear on an iconic uniform that suggested continuity and tradition, and ensures that the wearer was always the most visible person in a room or a crowd. Mary Angela Kelly, CVO (b.1957), daughter of a dock worker and a nurse, is a British fashion designer, dressmaker, and milliner, who served as friend, Personal Assistant and Senior Dresser to Queen Elizabeth II from 1993 until the monarch's death in 2022. Her official title was Personal Assistant, Adviser and Curator to Her Majesty The Queen (Jewellery, Insignias and Wardrobe). When her employer died in 2022, she was forced to leave her grace and favour Windsor home to start a new life in the Peak District. Quite a scarce book.
