Huxley Elspeth
The Mottled Lizard.
London: Chatto & Windus 1962. First edition early printing of one of Huxley's best known works. Octavo original half cloth. Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the half-title page "For Joe Ferrier with gratitude for your interest in my childhood memories - now are half a century old. Elspeth Huxley." Laid in are three typed letters signed by Huxley to Joe Ferrier one of which reads in part "I much appreciate your continuing interest in my writings - as much as I regret the appalling untidiness of this typing. My non-proficiency increases with the years and the typewriter is now nearly as old as I am; a few more years and in this age of word-processors etc.; it may become a valuable antique. With best wishes yours sincerely Elspeth Huxley." The recipient Joe Ferrier was a lifelong pen pal and friend of Huxley's. They often exchanged letters books and article clippings between England and the United States. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Rosemary Grimble. Nellie and Major Josceline Grant arrived in Thika in what was then British East Africa in 1912 where they became colonial settlers and established a coffee plantation. Their daughter Elspeth had quite an unconventional childhood which she later wrote about in her best known work The Flame Trees of Thika 1959 which examined how unprepared for rustic life the early British settlers really were. The Mottled Lizard continues the story when the family returns to Kenya after the first world war. Huxley recreates in vivid detail their home native servants hunting expeditions and travels throughout the country. Chatto & Windus hardcover

Huxley Elspeth
The Mottled Lizard
London: Chatto & Windus 1962. From the dust jacket: In The Flame Trees of Thika Elspeth Huxley described her early childhood in Kenya where her parents went as pioneer farm ers. Now in The Mottled Lizard she carries on the story when the family return to Kenya after the First World War. She re creates in vivid detail their home their native servants their European friends their ponies travels shooting expeditions and above all the wonderful wild life of the country with its forests bushveld and open spaces; its beasts birds and reptiles. The relationships of the girl with her forceful mother her gentle ineffective father and the young man Alan who is her hero are delicately handled. Nature 'provides unforgettable backgrounds and episodes - a big waterbuck by the pool at dawn an elephant family playing in the river the splendour of the African sunset the escapades of Rupert the de lightful pet but not tame cheetah. At the end when the girl leaves Kenya to return to Europe the reader shares her regret for the loss of this wild exciting country that has vanished now for ever and whose magic is preserved in pages written with insight wit and love. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 335 pages ------------------ Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. .
