Description
London: Vizetelly & Co, 1886. First U.K. edition. Near Fine. The rare first UK edition of Tolstoy's masterpiece. Rebound in full blue crushed morocco by the Chelsea bindery. Top edges gilt, dark maroon end papers, front and rear cloth covers bound in at the end. Three octavo volumes, all dated 1886 on the title pages, collating: viii, 9-429; iv, 5-360, [32 p. publisher's catalogue, dated Sept. 1886]; iv, 5-387, [4 p. publisher's catalogue]; complete with all half-titles. A few spots of foxing on the early leaves, otherwise an excellent copy overall. Housed in a matching blue, lined slipcase. The first UK edition is notoriously rare on the market. The author's epic novel of the Napoleonic Wars, which gives them a human face through the poignant impact they have on several interrelated characters. A story of love and tradition amidst a crumbling society and a radically changing world. A novel brimming with enlightenment and modern theories. Virginia Woolf wrote: "There remains the greatest of all novelists-for what else can we call the author of War and Peace? ... Even in a translation we feel that we have been set on a mountain-top and had a telescope put into our hands. Everything is astonishingly clear and absolutely sharp." Undoubtedly a masterpiece of world literature, and in our opinion, the greatest work from the Russian literary canon. Near Fine.

Description
New York: Holt, Rinehart Winston, 1966. First Edition, stated. Signed and inscribed by the Author. Octavo, gray cloth (hardcover), lavender endpapers, 191 pp. Very Good, with light foxing (age darkened spotting) in a Very Good, mylar protected dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: Seven decisive days in the life of a young clergyman are powerfully and dramatically chronicled in Faith Baldwin’s story of an intelligent young man torn between the ministry and medicine. Assistant Pastor in a Protestant church, Ira Stevens doubts his calling to the ministry; as his life unfolds pleasantly enough in a small New England town, he is plagued by the loneliness of indecision and by an increasing sense of isolation -- from his work and from his own desires. He wonders if he should return to the medical training he once found so rewarding. In a week filled with introspection, bewilderment, and intense activity, Ira seeks an answer, his objectivity confused by his deep, troublesome involvement with one woman, and by his affection for another. He must, of course, tend to his parishioners as usual, among them, Mrs. Armstrong, who flaunts a menacing grip on the parish, and Ella Downing, whose lonely existence masks a tragic secret. As Ira touches extremes of joy, misery, tenderness, and even violence in these lives, he also confronts -- and accepts -- surprising elements in his own nature. At the end of seven days, he has made a final decision.

Statesville, NC: American Psychiatrists for Neutrality on Abortion, [1991-92]. Original broadisde, with text and illustrations printed in black on white bond, measuring 8.5" x 11". Horizontal fold smoothed-out at center, else Near Fine. Broadside issued by the American Psychiatrists for Neutrality on Abortion (APNOA), highlighting the conflict within the mental health community (specifically the APA) over the abortion issue. The APNOA "was formed after APA's President Elissa Benedak invited Planned Parenthood's President Faye Wattleton to address the Convocation at APA's 1991 annual meeting in New Orleans. Co-chairs Patricia Wesley of Yale University School of Medicine and Audrey Michal, M.D. found that many psychiatrists did not know of their association's promotion of abortion. Moreover even many pro-abortion psychiatrists opposed the APA's taking sides on this complex moral issue" (Maloof, George E. "Religion at the American Psychiatric Association." The Linacre Quarterly Vol.61, No.2 (May, 1994), p.12).
