Laminated illustrated wrappers, 8vo, 24 cm, 233 pp, ills. From the blurb - "'I think she is the best poet alive' - wrote the literary critic Walter Raleigh in 1892. Later authorities have echoed his judgement, calling Christina Rossetti the finest woman poet of the nineteenth century. There are no less than eleven of her poems in the New Oxford Book of English Verse, and her poem In the bleak mid-winter has, in its setting by Gustav Holst, become one of the best loved and most popular of English carols, known to thousands who have never heard of the Rossetti family or the Pre-Raphaelite movement. But in her brilliantly perceptive biography Mrs Battiscombe convinces us that the sadness characteristic of her poetry has causes deeper than any external troubles. In early adolescence Christina had a spiritual and emotional crisis from which she emerged transformed. It is only possible to guess at the causes of this crisis:. 'The tension between two nationalities, two cultures, two ways of thought can be very fruitful of results,' writes the author, 'though it will inevitably be the cause of much stress and suffering to the person concerned. From this tension genius can be born.'In this book a tragic story unwinds against a background of life in an immensely gifted and closely-knit family, and it is a story of unflagging interest and moving pathos." Slightly agetoned, otherwise Good.

Cloth, 8vo, 106 pp, 14 plates. An entertaining collection of "book-detective"essays, each taking as its starting point a book or document from the author's collection and recounting something of its history as gleaned from Uden's own researches. As illustrations , the first three chapters lead from a manuscript book kept by Vice-Admiral Sir James Hawkins Whitshed to the case of the marooned sailor, Robert Jeffrey; from a faded pocket-book to the thrilling escape of HM Frigate Juno in 1793; and from a Book of Homilies to a 400 year old curse. Good in used dustwrapper.
