Warner Bob Drawings by B. O'Brian
DON'T BLAME THE FISH
New York: Winchester Press 1974. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good/very good. Not quite fiction but certainly not nonfiction either Don't Blame the Fish is described by its author as nonsense based on actual happenings. All of the characters--well nearly all--are people you'd like to fish with and have a few drinks with after your sport. Warner's witty words are complimented perfectly by the light-hearted illustrations of New Yorker cartoonist William B O'Brian. Warner has been fishing addictively since he was a child and even found the time while serving with the OSS during World War II to sample the streams and rivers of China Burma India and Ceylon. Former library book with usual stickers and marks affecting mostly the endpages. There is a very faint library stamp on the leading edge page block. Book is in very good condition with minor edge wear. The dust jacket not clipped is rubbed and bumped at stress points and has a small piece missing off the inside front flap. Covered in plastic that has smudges and surface scuffing and yellowed taped. The picture is a scan of the actual book. Winchester Press hardcover

Flora Herscheliana: Sir John and Lady Herschel at the Cape 1834 to 1838
Johannesburg: The Brenthurst Press 1996 0909079552. Brenthurst Third Series Number 2. The standard edition limited to 850 copies. Quarto; original tan cloth lettered in gilt on spine; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; ribbon marker; pp. 295 incl. index; lavishly illustrated with reproductions of contemporary portraits botanical and topographical illustrations largely in full colour. Fine condition. "A visit to the Cape of Good Hope from 1834 to 1838 to survey the southern skies exposed Herschel to another great natural wonder - the beauty and diversity of the Cape Flora. The profound impact this encounter had on both John and his wife Margaret resulted in a magnificent portfolio of botanical drawings outlined by John using a camera lucida for scientific accuracy and painted in watercolours by Margaret. Herschel's restless analytical mind also led him to consider deeper issues among them the morphology of bulbs the diversity of species and botanical scents and perfumes. The Brenthurst Press has once again drawn on the resources of The Brenthurst Library the private Africana collection of Mr H.F. Oppenheimer and other relevant material much of it unpublished and in private collections to produce 'Flora Herscheliana: Sir John and Lady Herschel at the Cape 1834 to 1838' by Brian Warner and John Rourke. The book . is a celebration of the Herschels' fascination with the abundant beauty they discovered on the doorstep of Feldhausen their home at the Cape." .
