Anthony Browne has always acknowledged the classic cult movie 'King Kong' to be one of the most potent influences on his work; this greatest of all 'gorilla' stories is surely the book above all he was destined to illustrate. King Kong is a giant gorillaa huge and terrifying survivor from another age on an island trapped in a time warp.But this awesome creature is no match for the cunning of an ambitious promoterwho sees Kong as a mega showstopperand sets out to trap him.The pursuit and capture provide endless thrillsbut when Kong is finally put on show to the public in New York the heart-stopping moments begin leading to perhaps one of the most famous of all climaxes as King Kong defies the world from the top of the Empire State Building. This book is a major attractiona 'first' in every sense as King Kong has never before appeared as a full-colour book.There will not be a dry eye in the house when the last page is turned. Anthony Browne is now rightly regarded as one of the world's leading picture book creators.His books include 'Piggybook' 'Changes''The Big Baby'and three books about the enormously popular chimp Willy.He has won awards in many countriesincluding the Kate Greenaway Medal and the Kurt Maschler Award for his now classic book 'Gorilla'and the Kate Greenaway Medal a second time for 'Zoo'. In 1993 a major exhibition of his work was mounted in Mexico. 'King Kong'which has occupied him for two yearsis his most ambitious project to date then 1994. PosthumouslyEdgar Wallace's most famous work was one he wouldn't get to see.Out of several scripts he penned for the RKO studioMerian C. Cooper's "gorilla picture" had the most lasting influencebecoming the classic 1933 'King Kong'. Wallace was assigned work on the RKO "gorilla picture" King Kong1933 for producer Merian C. Cooper.By late January howeverhe was beginning to suffer suddensevere headaches and was diagnosed with diabetes.His condition deteriorated within daysEdgar had slipped into a coma and died of the conditioncombined with double pneumoniaon 10 February 1932 in Beverly Hills.<br />Wallace wrote the initial 110-page draft for 'King Kong' over a period of five weeksfrom late December 1931 to January 1932. The movie was initially to be called 'The Beast'and this was the name of Wallace's treatment. In December1932his story and screenplay for King Kong were "novelized" or transcribed by Delos W. Lovelacea journalist and author himself who knew Cooper from when they worked on the same newspaperand appeared in book form under the title 'King Kong'.Lovelace based the transcription largely on the Ruth Rose and James A. Creelman screenplay. This "novelization" of King Kongattributed to WallaceCooper and Lovelacewas originally published by Grosset and Dunlap US 1932.In 1976Grosset and Dunlap republished the novel in both paperback and hardcover editions. The Delos Lovelace transcription remains the official book- length treatment of the story.

WALTON Izaak 1593 1683 & COTTON Charles 1630 1687
The complete angler or Contemplative man's recreation : being a discourse on rivers fish-ponds fish and fishing ; in two parts / the first written by Izaak Walton the second by Charles Cotton; with the lives of the authors; and notes historical supplementary and explanatory by Sir John Hawkins and the present editor
London: Printed for S. Bagster in the Strand By R. Watts at Broxbourne on the River Lea Herts 1815. Full Calf. Near Fine. 8vo: 2514p20pp with 13 of 14 full-page engraved plates and 36 further illustrations 17 of fish 2 maps of the River Lea & the River Dove 2 autograph facsimiles 2 leaves of music and 13 other text engravings; 16 of the engravings are new to this edition and 20 including the 17 of fish are based on new drawings. Complete with the 7pp of advertisements bibliographical references and index but absent the frontispiece portrait of Walton by Philip Audinet. The title page to part 2 has the imprint and date from the 1676 edition facing a portrait of Cotton by J. Linnell after Lely; the two leaves of music are of songs by N. Lanier and H. Lawes. An excellent copy rebacked with slightly later speckled calf boards framed in gilt with a greek-key roll and turn-ins decorated with a gilt leaf tool original spine elaborately gilt in six compartments with red morocco gilt lettering piece laid down. Marbled end papers all edges gilt. Light water stain to bottom inside corner of first and final few leaves minor foxing and offsetting to plates and adjacent pages otherwise excellent. According to Westwood 'Chronicle of The "Complete Angler"' 1883 this edition was "printed in two sizes demy octavo and royal octavo" this appears to be the former. He also calls the "fresh series of plates of fish . . . superior to those of 1808. . . . Great is our leaning we confess to this edition which was printed in the village of Broxbourne by the River Lea and in the very footprints of old Izaak." Westwood & Satchell pp. 224-25. OCLC Number: 58443434. Second Bagster Edition edited with lengthy improvements and additions by Sir Henry Ellis of the British Museum who compiled the first printed list of angling books and added fresh bibliographical and biographical notes to this edition. Walton conceived The Complete Angler as a "dialogue between men travelling on foot who each represented a different recreation. In the first edition there were two Piscator fisherman and Viator traveller; in the second and much expanded edition of 1655 the two had become three: Viator was now Venator hunter and Auceps falconer was added. By this means the art of fishing was introduced defended and expounded: its strong precedent in the fishermen apostles of the New Testament was established the detail of baiting for catching and cooking different kinds of fish was catalogued and the whole was accompanied by aphorisms which would show the reader what it might mean to live well. . . . Walton revised the Compleat Angler four times in his lifetime: in 1655 1661 with a second issue in 1664 1668 and 1676. Its last edition was so much expanded from the first as to constitute almost a different text." What's more by the date of this the second Bagster edition The complete angler had commanded such huge popularity that it had been "reprinted almost as many times as A Pilgrim's Progress." ODNB. Printed for S. Bagster, in the Strand, By R. Watts, at Broxbourne, on the River Lea, Herts unknown
