Signed presentation from the author "To Betty Drake from Herbert Bedford December 1938." Herbert Bedford (1867-1945) was the husband of the composer Liza Lehmann and was also a composer, but he excelled in other things besides music. He painted miniatures and wrote books, some of which were about music, like the Essay on Modern Unaccompanied Song and a Life of Robert Schumann but he also published a survey of The Heroines of George Meredith illustrated by twenty of Bedford's own miniatures, while his catholicity of interests was borne out by this 1938 Chart of the Arts. While serving in London's anti-aircraft defences in the First World War he invented an AA ranging device which the War Office adopted for the instruction of all AA gunnery officers. Betty Drake was an American actress and the third wife of Cary Grant. Signedes.
