‎MABEY Richard‎

‎Food for Free. With Drawings by Marjorie Blamey. THE AUTHOR'S FIRST BOOK AND A MODERN CULINARY CLASSIC‎

‎8vo., First Edition, with 8 coloured plates and 148 monochrome illustrations in the text; original green cloth, gilt back, green endpapers, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. The author's first book, and a landmark in the 'rediscovery' of the wild foods of the countryside. Mabey catalogues and details the edible roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of all-but-forgotten common plants. In all over 300 species are described, of which 90 are illustrated in colour and 148 in Blamey's wonderfully detailed pen-and-ink illustrations. The work proved a seminal study, inspiring and influencing many other writers both on natural history and cookery. It has been many times reissued in a variety of formats but the original edition is very scarce indeed in anything like this condition.‎

‎MacKay George Henry‎

‎Shooting Journal of George Henry Mackay 1865-1922. Edited by John C. Phillips with a four page Introduction by him.‎

‎Cambridge Massachusetts: Privately Printed for John C. Phillips by The Cosmos Press 1929. First Edition. One of 300 copies. Portrait frontispiece plates from photographs. 373 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. Original cloth-backed marbled boards. Fine. First Edition. One of 300 copies. Portrait frontispiece plates from photographs. 373 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. One of the interesting and uncommon privately printed volumes edited by John C. Phillips. George Mackay born 1843 worked with his father in the India trade and went round the Horn several times. He was an avid sportsman in Massachusetts and along the eastern seaboard of America. He spent portions of each year on Nantucket - he married Maria Starbuck - and on West Island Rhode Island. In later life Mackay became very active in efforts to preserve breeding colonies of birds when the feather craze threatened them with extinction. Mackay effectively abandoned shooting after 1897 then resumed the journal in 1921-2. His journal serves as a long-running observation of natural conditions on Nantucket and West Island and a record of sport in a vanished era. Biscotti p. 342 Privately Printed for John C. Phillips by The Cosmos Press unknown books‎
