Maurois Andre
Two Typed Letters signed "André Maurois" to Hans Roger Madol regarding Madol's book GODOY: THE FIRST OF THE MODERN DICTATORS
Neuilly-sur-Seine France 1932. One page each. 1 vols. Half-sheet quarto. Very good. One page each. 1 vols. Half-sheet quarto. Maurois to a Fellow Biographer. Two letters to Madol concering the latter's book on the Spanish dictator Godoy translated into English as GODOY: THE FIRST OF THE MODERN DICTATORS L. 1934.<br/><br/>In the first letter Maurois acknowledges receipt of the book by the historian and biographer Madol: " I have just read the beginning and the book seems fine to me. I promise to let you know . "<br/><br/>In the second letter Maurois responds to an invitation to write the Preface to GODOY: "I"d be delighted to see your book on Godoy appear in France but I don't feel capable of writing a preface on the subject. It's about a man I know little about except through you and about a period which I have never studied. My Preface would have little authority. I think every man should stay faithful to what he knows. But if you wish I could very well recommend your book to my publisher . "<br/><br/>André Maurois 1885-1967 novelist and biographer was son of an Alsatian draper who worked in the family business until he became a staff liaison officer with the British forces during World War I. His novel Les Silences du colonel Bramble 1918 gained him an immediate celebrity; Maurois wrote prolifically: novels on philosphical and moral themes and well-regarded biographies; he was elected to the Académie Française in 1938. unknown books

Maurois Andre
Typed Letter signed to editor Ernest Boyd of the American Spectator regarding the possible publication of an excerpt from his unpublished work EDOUARD VII
Neuilly-sur-Seine France 1933. One page. 1 vols. 4to. Slight wear at edges and folds. One page. 1 vols. 4to. To the American Spectator. Interesting letter from the French Jewish novelist biographer essayist and historian to the American co-editor along with George Jean Nathan of Nathan's newly formed magazine "The American Spectator."<br/><br/>"My dear Boyd<br/><br/>"I had promised to give some unpublished excepts from my Edward VII. It isn't easy to detach sections from a historical work. However you could take either the first chapter "Final Days and Death of Queen Victoria" which Appleton already has in translation and could give you - or the third chapter "Men and Parties" which contains several potraits of Englihs politicians . a few of them might be amusing ."<br/><br/><br/>Born as Emile Herzog Maurois changed his name assimilated and published his first novel in 1918. During WWII he supported the Vichy regime but was a strong opponent of Hitler and eventually had to flee to the United States where he taught at Princeton. He is perhaps even more widely known in Great Britain and the U.S. for his masterful biographies of Shelley and Byron and his books on the Edward and the Edawardian Period as discussed here and English history. unknown books

VG but with soiling to covers where glassine was lacking minor age toning to extremities of some pages not bad overall a tight copy that could have been stored better. The front cover is slightly cattywampus from the two extra sets of engravings being inserted in the front of the book as might be expected. Printed wraps with glassine remnants on inside flaps. 24 pp. 15 engravings etchings withing the text and two extra sets of these illustrations each set representing a different state are included only 20 such sets were issued of the overall edition of 430 copies. Text is in French. The book itself has been printed on Imperial Japon and the extra engraving printed on Imperial Japon and on Holland Van Gelder it appears from the colophon and limitation at the rear of the book.

Paris: Editions Mornay 1932. Limited Edition. Full Decorated Calf. Very Good. 8vo. 20 by 15.5 cm. 329 pp. Original wraps bound in. Since there is no number to this copy it is presumed this was one of the 55 copies produced "hors commerce". Regardless the full calf binding is special with its watercolor cameo centerpiece of a sailboat on the front the floral vignette on the back and portrait of Shelley on the spine. Alas the calf is heavily rubbed along the joints with starting by the lower rear joint and the spine is darkened and heavily rubbed. Inside the book is clean and fresh with the color illustrations uniformly a delight. <br/><br/> Editions Mornay unknown books
