Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 5th printing. 12mo with black boards and gilt spine title; 198 pages; illustration; appendix; 19 cm. Uncommon in the U.S. "This book is the result of an unusual collaboration. Dr. Bendit is a practising psychiatrist; Miss Payne is a clairvoyant. They are also man and wife. [.] The authors' approach to their difficult subject is straightforward and courageous. They reveal, naturally, a bias in favour of the acute and commanding perceptions which they know so well, and the immaterial bucket sometimes sends the material bucket ignominiously sky high: but truth is obtained by yielding to one's natural bent as often as by discounting it. Miss Payne, and more surprisingly Dr. Bendit seem to me to underrate the objection that the forms seen by a medium, even though constant, may be contributed by a medium and may not be proper to, or even symbolic of, the reality which is being perceived. But so elementary an objection can be provided by the reader, and need in no vital way vitiate the book's general conclusions." --Foreword. Very good (-); boards rubbed along edges and corners and sunned at spine; prior owner sticker to front pastedown and ink owner signature on front flyleaf; title in ink on bottom edge of book block; pink ink notes on pgs 15 and 16; else unmarked; tight and clean with some light toning to leaves.

Garnett, R.A.; Austen, John; Gibbings, Robert; Papé, Frank C.; Odle, Alan; Garwood, Tirzah; Hilder, Rowland; Kermode, William; Grant, Duncan; Moon, P.V.; Leighton, Clare; Wolfe, Edward (illustrator). Each volume one of 550 copies, quarto size, approx. 650 total pages, each volume signed by the author. The "Furnival Books" were a series of shorter works from young authors, some of whom would go on to be considered the best of their day. The brainchild of bookseller and publisher A. W. Steele, he published these limited edition copies under two imprints, but the entire series of twelve books were all printed by the Chiswick Press between 1930 and 1932. One of the great bonuses of this series are the frontispiece illustrations, several by some of my own favourite artists: John Austen, Robert Gibbings, Frank Papé, and Clare Leighton. Particulars on the twelve books are as follows: (1) Powys, T.F.; Warner, Sylvia Townsend (Foreword); Garnett, R.A. (Woodcut), "The Key of the Field", 1930, no. 12, 39 pp.; (2) Bates, H.E.; Garnett, Edward (Foreword); Austen, John (Line Engraving), "The Hessian Prisoner:, 1930, no. 477, 42 pp.; (3) Coppard, A.E.; Gibbings, Robert (Woodcut), "The Man From Kilsheelan", 1930, no. 180, 38 pp.; (4) Davies, Rhys; O'Flaherty, Liam (Foreword); Papé, Frank C.
