JAMES, GPR (1799-1860) G P R
Autograph Letter Signed
This popular extraordinarily prolific British writer penned nearly one hundred novels such as "Richelieu" 1829 "The Gypsy" 1835 as well as plays poetry and historical writings such as "The Life and Times of Louis XIV" 1838 exceeding the voluminous output of his mentor Sir Walter Scott; later he turned to diplomacy serving as a British consul in America and vice-consul at Venice. ALS 2pp inlaid 4¼" X 6 3/4" Norfolk VA 1853 May 5. Addressed to M.M. Ballou at Gleason Pictorial in Boston 1820-95 Boston publisher novelist travel writer first editor of Boston Daily Globe. Near fine. "Please excuse my seeming negligence in not having sooner answered your note. When it arrived I was absent from home wandering about for a few days and the letter was mislaid It is thus only today that I have seen it and I hasten to apologize for acknowledging it at an earlier period thinking that in the mean time you have not thought very hardly of Your faithful Servant." Boldly attractively penned in brown ink. So profuse is James's apology though that he fails to mention the object of Ballou's note! Amusingly the very next year Ballou's illustrated pictorial founded 1851 passed along this unflattering tidbit from a London magazine: "The American papers report the particulars of a fire in the house of Mr. G.P.R. James whereby one storey was consumed. What a pity it didn't burn many more! unknown

A journey back in time through maps
Milan Italy : White Star Publishers 2017. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Folio - over 12 - 15" tall. pictorial covers207 pages : illustrations principalement en couleur cartes; n our modern day and age when satellite imagery and GPS services like Google Maps offer strikingly accurate images of the world we can easily forget that for most of human history the world was an unknown tabula rasa on which cartographers scientists men of god and kings imprinted their own dreams and ideals. This book explores changing perceptions of the world map through the centuries and across multiple vastly different cultures. We will juxtapose 18th century Buddhist cartography in Japan with European mercantile maps of the same period. We will travel with speculative cartographers and they argue in the scientific academies of Paris London and St. Petersburg over theories about what 'must' fill the great unknown. We will observe the emergence of the modern world view through the cartographic lens. White Star Publishers Hardcover
