Shelley George Ernest
A Monograph of the Nectariniidae or Family of Sunbirds
London: Published by the author 1876-1880. First edition. Light scattered foxing to the blank endpapers only margin of inside corner missing from one text page; the fine binding the text and hand-colored plates are all very bright and clean with no signs of use; an extraordinary copy in fine condition. Pp. i-cviii 1-393; 121 hand-colored lithographs by Keulemans each heightened with gum Arabic. Contemporary one-half Victorian-red morocco over scarlet red cloth boards spine with five raised bands lettered in gilt in two compartments and with elaborate gilt floral decorations in the other four compartments the title and author are lettered in gilt on the front board top page edge in gilt contemporary red marbled endpapers lg 4to 13 x 10.25 inches; 33 x 25.5 cm. "An excellent monograph of an interesting family of birds with descriptions in Latin and English critical notes and discussions of habits etc. from accounts by many different observers. A total of 138 species of the group are recognized of which all but one are figured on excellent hand-colored plates" Zimmer Ayer p. 588. This work was limited to 250 copies only. In the preface Shelley acknowledges the importance of Keuleman's contribution of the fine color plates: "The illustrations which form such an important portion of my Monograph have all been executed by Mr. Keulemans whose name is sufficient guarantee for the accuracy of the details and for high artistic skill. The latter is rendered perhaps more striking from his being acquainted with this family of birds in their native haunts; and his notes upon the sun-birds inhabiting Prince's Island have been incorporated in my work." The sunbirds are small slender passerines from the Old World usually with downward-curved bills. Many are brightly colored often with iridescent feathers particularly in the males. Most sunbirds feed largely on nectar but will also eat insects and spiders modified after Wiki. This monograph describes two new genera and ten new species. The work originally appeared in twelve parts from July 1876 to February 1880. See also Nissen IVB 873; Casey Wood p. 566; Fine Bird Books 1990 p. 142. No ownership marks; an early owner of this book states it came from David Bannerman's library. London: Published by the author, 1876-1880. First edition. hardcover

Shelley G. E. Vol. V Pt II was Completed and Edited By W. L. Sclater
The Birds of Africa Comprising All the Species Which Occur in the Ethiopian Region Five Volumes in Seven
London: R. H. Porter / Henry Sotheran & Co. Five volumes in seven published between 1896 and 1912. Later half red Moroccan leather with red cloth over boards. Raised spine band and gilt stamped letters. Association Set having previously belonged to Robin Kemp London 1871- who in 1904 worked with Shelley incorporating his help to classify birds he had gathered in Sierra Leone between 1902 and 1904. Having been sent to Sierra Leone as an accountant with a railway firm Kemp filled his spare time collecting bird specimens and soon identified himself as a "Professional Specimen Collector." In addition to two trips to New Zealand and a later trip to Argentine Kemp was commissioned by C. D. Rudd to collect in East Africa from 1908-1911. The genus Kempiella is named for him and Kemp is associated with the discovery of many mammals birds and Mollusca. Whittell H. M. "The Literature of Australian Birds". This set is heavily annotated by Kemp with Vol. I being interleaved with sheets of notes in the meticulous and detailed hand of Kemp. There is also a good deal of penciled marginalia mostly in the first two volumes. Kemp has neatly made checks and underlined names and titles in both red and black pencil. Although this also is mostly seen in Vol. I and II there are scattered markings through all of the volumes except V Pt. II. " Volume I comprises a check-list of species. The remainder of the work takes up the various groups systematically giving descriptions and biographical notes but citing as synonymy only references to the Catalogue of Birds in the British Museum and publications not mentioned therein with further citation of the best published illustration; the original description is omitted unless it falls into the category mentioned and even the authorities for the nomenclature are not necessarily included. Many new genera and species are described. The Illustrations are most excellent. The work was published in 8 parts divided as collated above except that Vol. II appeared in two parts --the first including pp. 1-160 and the second the remainder. Vol I is reviewed in the Ibis for July 1896; II Pr. I in July 1900; II Pt. II in Jan. 1901 but published in 1900; II in Oct. 1902; IV Pt. I in the Auk for April 1905; IV Pt II in July 1905; V Pt. I in the Ibis for July 1906; and V Pt. II in Jan. 1913 but publ. probably in 1912. The various signatures bear varying dates which are evidently those of printing not of publication. All of the work except Vol. V Pt. II is from the pen of Shelley who died before the work was complete. The final part was prepared by W. L. Sclater from Shelley's manuscript notes and proofs with some addition of his own. There is an index to each volume except the first but no general index." Zimmer "Catalogue of the Edward E. Ayer Ornithological Library Part II" pp 589-590. Beautifully illustrated with 57 colored lithographs after Danish naturalist and artist Henrik Gronvold 1858-1940. There are a few very slight scuffs and small marks on the leather spine covers. A few of the title pages show some darkening along the edges and there is a little very slight foxing affecting the first couple leaves of Vol. I and Vol. V Pt. I. All volumes remain tight and show very well. Aside from Kemps' markings and the slight flaws mentioned this remains a very clean and intact set. All 57 plates have been collated and remain in Fine condition. Due to the size and weight of this set additional fees will apply for International and/or Priority shipping. . First Edition. Half Leather - Hardbound. Very Good/No Jacket. Illus. by Henrik Gronvold. 4to. R. H. Porter / Henry Sotheran & Co. hardcover

Shelley Gerard
The speckled domes;: Episodes of an Englishman's life in Russia
C. Scribner's sons. Very Good. First ed. 1925; deckle edges; 256 p. immaculate and marked only with name of former owner in small hand; paper strong but mildly age-toned with occasional foxing; wonderful period photos including frontis. photoportrait of author; binding firm; no d.j. but dark green boards only slightly rubbed and bumped a few tiny white specks. Truly absorbing idiosyncratic account of pre-Revolutionary Russia that includes interviews with Rasputin who charmed him and whom he believed to be genuinely holy and the Tsarina whom he found to be touchingly in search of simplicity; the exciting parts come after the Revolution and he was indeed lucky to escape--he was released from prison before being shot on the mistaken assumption he was descended from Percy Bysshe Shelley whose "Masque of Anarchy" was loved by the commissar in charge. C. Scribner's sons hardcover
