Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This captivating collection of verse by two contemporaries explores the themes of love, loss, and the human condition. The poems are technically precise and thematically insightful, engaging the reader with a blend of joy and sorrow throughout. Some are lyrical and playful, while others are more reflective and philosophical. The selections in this book explore emotion, from the joy and beauty of love to the helplessness of loss and the brutality of human cruelty. The authors, who lived during tumultuous historical periods, touch on topics that encompass the American Civil War, the brutal practice of slavery, and the struggles of women during the Victorian era. This exploration, however, is never didactic, instead focusing on the emotional impact of these large-scale events on individuals, offering glimpses of the human condition that are timeless in their relevance. These poems express the full range of human emotion, and challenge readers to reflect on their own experiences of love, loss, and identity. They are sure to resonate with readers long after they finish the last page. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 172 x 120mm; pp. [8, index], [129 numbered leaves, filled] rear endpapers used. A revealing volume of newspaper cuttings, mainly from 1906 8, put together by Edward G. Spencer-Churchill, Winston's cousin and an aspiring politician himself. At this early point there are close parallels between the two men's careers. Spencer-Churchill was studying all the major 1906 General Election issues, which were also Winston's concerns at the time - Chinese labour in the colonies, and education reform at home. Some of the clippings are of Spencer-Churchill's own published letters to newspapers, but he also records the activities of his more famous cousin, at one point noting in manuscript 'Winston in H of C' alongside a clipping. There is some pencil highlighting to the clippings, and the volume ends with a series of typed and manuscript pages concerning tariffs and investments - including a signed letter from an employee of the Tariff Commission. Tariff reform was the major issue within the Conservative Party in the period leading up to the 1906 General Election. Good condition: binding a little shaken; cover with partially removed label.…

manuscript titles ('The Abdication of Edward VIII'; 'The Coronation of King George VI.'; 'The War') and manuscript commentary, mostly captions but with some longer passages, all in the hand of Antoinette Brett (née Heckscher), Viscountess Esher (see below), a few later clippings, including relating to VE Day, pp. [80], large folio, quarter white cloth with patterned cloth sides, printed label (blank) to upper board, some minor soiling but in very good condition. An absorbing documentary of turbulent times, the fact of it being largely formed of newspaper clippings available to any belying a significant detail of its provenance: the album was formed by Antoinette Brett, née Heckscher, daughter of the German-born American capitalist August Heckscher and the wife of Oliver Brett, the 3rd Viscount Esher. Not only does her background suggest a possible additional aspect of interest to the Anglo-American union a much less happy version of her own but there is a tangible proximity to events that is represented both in her commentary, which supplements the printed gossip with that of her own circle ('Lord Wigram told O. [i.e., Oliver, her husband]', etc.), and in the presence of such ephemera as the notice to Peers of the forthcoming 'Coronation of His Majesty King Edward VIII' (with her caption: 'The Coronation that never took place'), and both the invitation (addressed to 'Right Trusty and Wellbeloved Cousin' and signed 'Norfolk' on the King's behalf) and the ticket of admission for the Viscount and his wife to attend the eventual 'Coronation of Their Majesties King George VI and Queen Elizabeth' at Westminster Abbey this last faced with the photographic portrait of the Eshers in their robes. Even were it simply the work of an outsider, this would be a wonderful feat of compilation, richly illustrated and with a broad survey opinion including her own but the inside perspective that enters at relevant junctures elevates it beyond everyday examples. Oliver Brett's father, Lord Esher, had been a confidant and adviser to Edward VII and retained his proximity to the royal family during the reign of George V. The fact of Churchill being referred to as 'Winston' in her captions both in the Abdication section ('Winston, fishing in troubled waters') and during the War ('Some of Winston's perorations') is more likely a token of true familiarity rather than false (see, 'Boris'). The quality of the work continues into the section on the War, where her interest in poetry is manifest in the various examples gathered to accompany the accounts of reporters; she notes the entry 'at last' of America into the War and includes a typed copy of an extract from the Duke of Norfolk's account of the Sinking of the Bismarck.…
