Howard Reid
IN SEARCH OF THE IMMORTALS Mummies Death and the Afterlife
Headline Book Publishing. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1999. First Edition. Hardcover. 0747275556 . Ex-library book but still in great condition - laminated cover and usual ex-lib type markings. Pages are clean and tight one earmark seen. Jacket has light scuffing. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 307 pages; Review: "This vivid sympathetic account of the world's mummy-making cultures contributes much to the mummy trade which does such a brisk business these days in books and on programs like National Geographic Explorer and the Discovery Channel that it might seem that there is nothing left to say. Another recent contribution to the genre Heather Pringle's outstanding The Mummy Congress Forecasts May 21 will likely garner more attention this summer but for its freshness and sensitivity Reid's should do very well also. Reid a documentary filmmaker and anthropologist living in England sets out for exotic regions and vivifies ancient mummy-making cultures artfully blending living and dead voices. He cites ancient scribes like Herodotus Tacitus and the Babylonian author of the Gilgamesh epic alongside accounts of and by the living descendents of mummy makers. Primarily he seeks to understand "the paths that these cultures may have intended to tread beyond life" by examining "the bodies themselves their attire and tomb accoutrements." Reid visits with the Maku in the Amazon to unravel the mystery of the Chinchorros of Peru whose mummifying culture predates Egypt's. At a winter camp in southwest Siberia he learns about the burial rites of the Kazakh nomads' warlord ancestors. He investigates the bog bodies of northern Europe; the peoples who established the Silk Route in China whose mummies show evidence of an ancient European influence in the East; and the Guanches of the Canary Islands who shared unexpected cultural links with the Egyptians. This intellectual adventure story focuses as much on life as on death; indeed the way a culture regards death the author implies says much about how it regards life. Aug. Forecast: The Mummy Congress might steal this book's thunder which would be a shame as this deserves wide readership. " 650 . Headline Book Publishing hardcover

HOYLAND John
A Historical Survey of the Customs, Habits & Present State of the Gypsies. Designed to develop the Origin on this singular People, and to promote the Amelioration of their Condition. SIGNED PRESENTATION COPY IN ORIGINAL BOARDS
8vo., First Edition, some very minor spotting (mainly marginal); original grey-blue boards, vellum back, paper label lettered in manuscript (a little chipped and faded), uncut, a remarkably crisp, clean copy. A SIGNED PRESENTATION COPY FROM THE AUTHOR TO JOSEPH STORRS, WITH THE FORMER'S HOLOGRAPH INSCRIPTION ON FRONT FREE ENDPAPER. With 2pp of publisher's advertisments of other works (including the revised edition of Hoyland's 'Epitome of the History of the World') bound in at end. John Hoyland (1750-1831), Quaker, writer on gipsies and author of other works, wrote this seminal study as a result of 'observing the very destitute and abject condition of the Gipsy race in the counties of Northampton, Bedford and Hertford'. The work is based on that of Grellman. For further details on Hoyland, his temporary disassociation with Quaker society (due apparently to his romantic entanglement with a gipsy girl) and his involvement with gipsies in general, see DNB. PRESENTATION COPIES FROM HOYLAND ARE RARE. A SPLENDID COPY IN CONTEMPORARY BINDING OF ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT AND INFLUENTIAL WORKS ON GIPSIES EVER WRITTEN.
