‎ARCHIVE MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION OF LETTERS BY JULIAN HUXLEY. ET AL.‎

‎1972. Very Good binding. A small archive of correspondence between Sir Julian Huxley the scientist writer and brother of Aldous Huxley and a Mr. John T. Parks of Richardson Texas. ~There are four autograph letters signed and written by Sir Julian. In them Huxley comments on such things as the burning of the White House in the War of 1812 various species of fish and the vices of the Arabs. Of the Arabs he comments: "their greatest trouble was the power of the different sheiks - which led to a form of tribalism and hindered unity. Oil has helped some materially - but even the oil 'kingdoms' are very backward as regards education & health. Let us hope that this division will continue so as to prevent mass war against Israel." This written a mere year before the Yom Kippur War. ~Sir Julian's handwritten letters are at times difficult to transcribe and the archive helpfully includes typed transcripts of them. ~~Correspondent John Parks requested autographs for certain copies of Sir Julian's works one of which is included with the letters: an off-print copy of "World Population" from Scientific American signed by Sir Julian on the front cover. The archive also includes correspondence between Mr. Parks and publishers as well as the subscription department at The New Yorker: "For the trouble I caused him . I asked him and Lady Huxley what they would like short of a herd of longhorn steers . and he said he rather thought that a subscription to The New Yorker would do nicely". Finally includes an autographed letter signed by Judith Huxley daughter-in-law of Aldous thanking the Mr. Parks for the loan of a book. Very Good binding. unknown books‎

The Zoological Society Regent's Park N.W.8 Primrose 2832 29 March. Dearest Ottoline I am so terribly sorry to hear that Philip is ill and under treatment; I have just phoned Milly & she gave me the news poor Ottoline how I wish this had been better - But she tells me that Philip has already benefited a lot from the rest & I do hope with all my heart that he will soon be all right again. And you will also improve your health it was sad you got a chill abroad setting you back again for a spell - luckily we are out of winter & fogs however strange the weather & time should help - I hope Dr Cameron doesn't let you tire yourself & that you are not wearing yourself with anxiety - I can't tell you how sorry how I am - dearest Ottoline. You have I expect heard from Maria about Aldous - we had a long letter Friday. He seems out of the woods thank God but how long till he is fit again Julian is taking a treatment of Prontosil which may or may not clear up the bacteria in the sinuses If not he will have to be operated soon. He is now off work for a week not a depressed as I feared Prontosil is depressing drug & a little better today - he still looks unwell. I'll let you know if he has this operation which I still wish could be avoided you feel that he can't go on like this & must get the sinuses drained. Kos is sad having lost the Irish Sweep - just when he really needed it! He is a bit worried about his home & I am preaching a House Agent to him - I can't see how he'll find a tenant otherwise. Brett is off to her desert again tomorrow. Funny old thing - unchanged really - she looks much older is fat dresses v. badly but is still like a startled bird. I thought you were very wise not to see her. I am outside her Ken; I think she has chosen well to live her life out there. Did you hear Julian got his Royal Society Fellowship the other day He was pleased. With many many wishes for your health & Philip's recovery & so much love. Juliette.

‎Juliette Huxley Typed Letter Signed 'Juliette' to 'Dick' Frank Richard Cowell b.1897 together with carbon of typed reply.‎

‎Letter 27 January 1966; on letterhead 31 Pond Street Hampstead N.W.3. Reply 29 January 1966. Juliette Huxley's letter is 4to: 2 pp. Good though lightly creased and attached to the other items by a paperclip. The correspondence mainly concerns a book by Cowell's eventually published under the title 'The garden as a fine art: from antiquity to modern times' 1978. She begins by describing Mary Wellesley: 'quite a character . lives in a small house off St. James's Palace and entertains by candlelight. Her uncle is the Duke of Wellesley . She has acquired a forest and soon after went to various forestry meetings and school to learn all about it.' 'About your gardens: have you quoted Song Solomon I 14 I think it is'. Discusses henna and Engeddi 'a beautiful oasis with several springs flowing from high cliffs and nourishing what otherwise would be a salty hellish desert . Also 'Herod's palace at Massada' 'Of course your book will be accepted for publication; have you tried Weidenfeld and Nicholson the eventual publishers I am thinking of going to him with MY Israel book. And of course those flower photos would be available to you for illustration.' The Huxleys hope to return to Israel that March 'to see the spring flowers' and she would 'inquire further' if they did. The unsigned copy of Cowell's reply is 4to: 3 pp. On typing paper creased and worn at extremities. Begins 'You have always been at a high altitude in the hierarchy of angels but now if there is any further step to take you may be regarded as having made it by your splendid letter of the 27th.' 'Lilian' is grateful 'for Miss Wellesley's story' and he is urging her 'to lure her down one fine day when the daffodils are in full song with other floral excitements to match . She would be a splendid counsellor on such bits of timber and planting as we have on our modest five acres.' Discusses their neighbour 'Mrs. Frederick Balfour now rising 85 I believe' who 'helped her late husband in perilous journeys on horseback in the Rockies of Oregon to discover some of the splendid things that now flourish there'. Discusses the biblical passage quoted by Huxley and is sending 'a carbon of my stuff on the gardens of the Holy Land' present as the last page of the letter. Mentions a few scholars in the field. 'Walter Neurath founder of the publishers Thames and Hudson has gone rather sour on the book. He seems to have imported one of those rewrite men from America whose activities have been the subject of such splendid denunciation in the T.L.S. and this young man offered to rewrite some of my stuff. I should like to hear the explosion if any such trick were tried on Julian or Ric Mortimer Wheeler. I expect they were all trained in 'Creative Writing' in some Mid-West college.' Discusses Weidenfeld as an option. He wishes Julian Huxley to know that he has received 'a splendid letter from Roger Saydoux from New York two days ago picking up and returning my nostalgia for those grand early days'. Letter, 27 January 1966; on letterhead 31, Pond Street, Hampstead, N.W.3. Reply, 29 January 1966. unknown‎
