Home Rule for Ireland
England 1914. Original oil painting on canvas unsigned with caricatures of Asquith John Redmond and Lloyd George 19 1/2 x 30 inches framed in gilt to 22 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches overall. 1 vols. Fine condition. Original oil painting on canvas unsigned with caricatures of Asquith John Redmond and Lloyd George 19 1/2 x 30 inches framed in gilt to 22 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches overall. 1 vols. British Political Caricatures in Oil. A British political comment on the issue of Home Rule for Ireland. Amid celestial clouds a Union Jack-garbed figure of H.H. Asquith turns a grindstone on which a gleeful John Redmond in satanic wings sharpens a sword lettered "HOME RULE" as an angelic David Lloyd George flies away carrying by the coattails a small Irishman shillelagh in hand.<br/><br/> Prime Minister Asquith introduced the Third Home Rule for Ireland Bill to the Commons in 1912 in part to oblige the Irish on which his Liberal ministry depended. Redmond leader of the Irish Nationalists established a balance of power favorable to the Irish and passage of the bill seemed assured. Lloyd George then Chancellor of the Exchequer aware of the heavily pro-English sentiment of Northern Ireland and of the political dangers of forcing unwilling Protestants under Catholic rule induced the parties to exempt Ulster from the provisions of the bill which finally passed in this form.<br/><br/>This painting reflects the situation in early 1914: Redmond with the aid of Asquith prepares to sever Ireland from the mother country while Lloyd George symbolically carries the pugnacious Catholic faithful away from the Protestant sanctuary of the North. It is possibly the original of a Conservative Party political poster.<br/><br/>A UNIQUE PIECE OF POLITICAL PROPAGANDA IN THE HIGHLY UNUSUAL MEDIUM OF OILS.

Bravo Ulster Volunteers 3 Postcards Celebrating UVF/Larne gun-running
Ireland nd. First Printing. Very Good/Good. Two show minor edge wear else bright and clean; one was mailed shows creases closed tear writing at rear stamp else bright. 3"x5". Illus. b/w plates. <br/><br/>Three uncommon postcards with engravings of the secret operation of 24-25 April 1914 in Larne. "The Larne gun-running was a major gun smuggling operation organised in April 1914 in Ireland by Major Frederick H. Crawford and Captain Wilfrid Spender for the Ulster Unionist Council to equip the Ulster Volunteer Force. The operation involved the smuggling of almost 25000 rifles and between 3 and 5 million rounds of ammunition from the German Empire with the shipments landing in Larne Donaghadee and Bangor in the early hours between Friday 24 and Saturday 25 April 1914. The Larne gun-running may have been the first time in history that motor-vehicles were used "on a large scale for a military-purpose and with striking success"." The true significance of the operation for the Unionist movement is debatable but it remains a matter of pride and an example of heroism. It did provoke a response of more direct significance when Erskine Childers organized the Howth gun running of June 1914. The 900 guns that he brought into County Dublin were subsequently used in the 1916 Easter Rising and Home Rule ceased to be a matter of debate. One card is used bearing George V stamp. unknown books

Oblong duodecimo paperbound stiff stapled thick pages unpaginated 20 pp. Very Good with minor foxing age darkened spotting to cover; filled in completely and neatly. From Foreword by the Home Secretary: This series of A. R. P. cigarette cards shows in clear pictures some of the things that the Government and the Local Authorities are working out for the protection of the general public and also some of the things that each member of the public can do for himself in time of emergency. As Home Secretary I am responsible for a Home Defence Service which might affect the life of any person in the country and I therefore welcome these cigarette cards for the manner in which they bring home to the householder and his family what they can do for themselves. Air Raid Precautions are not mysterious. They are based on commonsense suggestions and the essential things recommended cost very little and demand ingenuity and improvisation rather than expenditure. Even some of the more elaborate recommendations can be carried out quite easily in co-operation with a neighbour. I commend a study of these cards to your attention. unknown books

Octavo 9" x 6" issued in blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine and pictorial representation of the ship Victoria on the cover decorative blind stamp to covers. Translated and edited from the <i>Icelandic edition</i> of Sigfus Blondal by Betrtha S Phillpotts. Works issued by the Hakluyt Society Second Series Numbers 53 and 68. First edition.<br /><br />The autobiography of Jon Olafsson Traveler to the Indies remained unprinted in Icelandic save for a few excerpts until 1908-9 when an edition by Sigfus Blondal Librarian to the Royal Library was published in Copenhagen by the Icelandic Literary Society. The text in this edition which was based on a scholarly collation of the extant MMS. has been implicitly followed in the English translation. The life of Jon Olafsson falls into three parts; or perhaps more properly since only the first two parts are written by himself into two parts and an appendix. The first part opening with his childhood and youth in the remote north-west of Iceland his voyage to England in 1615 and his brief stay in that country has for its main subject his experiences as gunner's mate in Copenhagen and on various Northern voyages in the service of King Christian IV. It is this part which is comprised in the present volume. The second part edited by the Hakluyt Society deals with Jon Olafsson's voyage to India in 1622 his life as a member of the Danish garrison in the fort at Tranquebaar and the voyage home in 1624-5 a terrible record of privation in a rudderless vessel; his stay with other survivors at Youghal in Ireland and his return to Copenhagen towards the end of the year which had seen Christian IV's ill-fated entry into the Thirty Years' War. The autobiographical part ends with his return to Iceland in the Spring of 1626. It is followed by an account of the remainder of his life probably composed by someone in the household of Magnus Magnusson sheriff of Isafjoro Jon's native country--possibly the sheriff himself--and ending with Jon's death in 1679 in his eighty-fifth year. This third part is of value for the full account of the raid on the Barbary corsairs on Iceland in 1627.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Spine ends moderately rubbed volume II spine lightly sunned else a very good set.
