Small label covering previous owners name and message to previous owner to inside cover. Wear to D/J. Price clipped. This book will appeal to many readers for many reasons.

Others who know him as the biographer of Hilaire Belloc and Teilhard de Chardin, William Rothenstein and Eric Gill, will be glad to follow him into the world of art, literature, and religious controversy. And others, again, to whom he has lectured in Europe, America, and elsewhere will enjoy the echoes of his travels, and the reflections which they have inspired.

Decorative Boards. Condition: Very Good. 11th Impression. Hardback. Very slight foxing to end inside covers. With extracts from George Adamson's letters. Preface by Lord William Percy. Foreword by Captain Charles Pitman. The history of their lioness 'Elsa', reared from earliest infancy to three years old and finally returned to a wild life, forms a unique and illuminating study in animal psychology - a subject to which the last half-century has seen a wholly new approach. To whatever way of thinking the reader of Elsa's history may lean, it provides a record of absorbing interest depicting the gradual development of a controlled character which few would have credited as possible in the case of an animal potentially as dangerous as any in the world. Illustrated. 160 pp.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).

Book First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. When an agent of the C.I.A. was shot dead on a quiet Athens street, Bill Erlich, from the F.B.I.'s Rome office, was the first on the scene: the dead man was his friend and he would go through walls to nail the killer. However, the C.I.A. man had not been the assassin's target: he got in the way as the killer shot the person with him, an Iraqi dissident. Erlich's determination to hunt down and destroy his friend's murderer was to become a political embarrassment to his colleagues - and it would be exploited by the more cynical elements in the British Secret Service in ways he could never have foreseen as he gradually realized he had stumbled into a terrifying hornet's nest. Tiny shelf wear to corner of D/J. Tiny tear to bottom of spine D/J.
