Description
Barcelona: Joseph Llopis, 1691. SECOND EDITION. Title in red and black within woodcut border, large engraved vignette above the dedication. Contemporary vellum; some waterstaining, otherwise a wonderful copy with numerous contemporary annotations and ownership signatures; bookplate of James Whiteford Dunham. Second edition of this important source of information and material related to the conquest of Mexico by Cortés. De Solis (1610-1686), originally a dramatist who became Secretary of State to Philip IV, chronicles the years between the appointment of Cortés to command the invading Spanish army and the fall of Mexico City. He includes a discussion of the relationship between Cortés and Montezuma, as well as details of the lives of the native population. It offers an insight into the slaughter of the Indians of Mexico by the Spaniards, highlighting the courage of the invaders as they decimate the "savage" natives. This second edition is of the utmost scarcity, the first having been printed seven years earlier. The popularity of this work was supported by numerous editions in many languages over nearly a three hundred year period.

New York: Oxford University Press, [n.d.] Reprint. Finely bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe in full red morocco, with margins of boards ruled in gilt, five raised bands to spine, ruled and lettered in gilt, decorative design in blind extending from spine bands to edges of boards, gilt turn-ins, all edges gilt, India paper, and bookplate of Florence A. Bieglow dated April 21, 1940 in morocco matching the binding to front pastedown. About fine, with clean binding and pages, corners gently bumped, light spotting to endpapers, light offsetting to front free endpaper from bookplate, and sturdy binding with just some slight separation between pp. iv and v. Overall, an exquisitely bound copy. The Book of Common Prayer was first authorized in 1549 and prepared primarily by Archbishop Thomas Cranmer. In England, the last major revision to the text was in 1662, while in the United States it has received intermittent revisions since then, including a contemporary language update in 1979. Some of the most notable phrases to originate from the Book of Common Prayer are "ashes to ashes, dust to dust," "'Till death do us part," and "at death's door." On the literary influence of the BCP, novelist P.D. James writes, "We can recognize the Prayer Book's cadences in the works of Isaac Walton and John Bunyan, in the majestic phrases of John Milton, Sir Thomas Browne and Edward Gibbon. We can see its echo in the works of such very different writers as Daniel Defoe, Thackeray, the Brontës, Coleridge, T.S. Eliot and even Dorothy L. Sayers." . Reprint. Hard Cover. Near Fine.

[minimal wear to book; jacket slightly chipped at top of spine, small closed tear at upper corner of rear panel, otherwise clean and attractive]. Comic novel about a Lincolnshire native who "since infancy has dedicated himself exclusively to studying English village life, which, he maintains, is completely misrepresented in our current country literature. The rural scene, he avers, is not a cosy paradise inhabited by whimsical squires and philosophical craftsmen; it is characterised, rather, by brutal rapacity, sly animal cunning and orchidaceous vice." .
