HUXLEY
Fine Autograph Letter Signed to J. H. CHAMBERLAIN Thomas Henry 1825-1895 Biologist
John Henry 1831-1883 Architect based in Birmingham saying that "Far be it from me to forget the Birmingham & Midland Institute & the many kind receptions I have met with from its members - but I have had a warning to abstain from all work that can be avoided and I am sorry to say that I must give you the Popes answer 'Non possumus'." 2 side 8vo. 26 Abbey Place London NW 21st July date not clear but From 1870 onwards Huxley was to some extent drawn away from scientific research by the claims of public duty. He served on eight Royal Commissions from 1862 to 1884. From 1871 to 1880 he was a Secretary of the Royal Society and from 1883 to 1885 he was president. He was president of the Geological Society from 1868 to 1870. In 1870 he was president of the British Association at Liverpool and in the same year was elected a member of the newly constituted London School Board. Huxley is known as "Darwin's Bulldog" for his advocacy of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. Some time in 1871 Huxley had been found to have a heart condition and hence his reference to reducing his work load. The phrase 'decree of non possumus' means 'We Cannot' and would be the first words of a Papal decree when he is refusing something. The red armorial stamp is from an auction of 1917 to raise money for the War Effort. The previous owner had acquired this item from a collection sold in this auction. unknown

Antic Hay.
London: Chatto & Windus 1923. First edition of this classic novel. Octavo original cloth. Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper "For James Murphy thirty years later Aldous Huxley 1954." Fine in a very good dust jacket with light rubbing and wear. Uncommon signed and inscribed. London life just after World War I devoid of values and moving headlong into chaos at breakneck speed - Aldous Huxley's Antic Hay like Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises portrays a world of lost souls madly pursuing both pleasure and meaning. Fake artists third-rate poets pompous critics pseudo-scientists con-men bewildered romantics cock-eyed futurists - all inhabit this world spinning out of control as wildly comic as it is disturbingly accurate. In a style that ranges from the lyrical to the absurd and with characters whose identities shift and change as often as their names and appearances Huxley has here invented a novel that bristles with life and energy what the New York Times called "a delirium of sense enjoyment!"
