‎José Alencar‎

‎Iracema or Honey-Lips: A Legend of Brazil‎

‎London: Bickers & Son, 1886. First English edition of this acclaimed Brazilian romance. Translated by Isabel Burton. Slim in-12 volume. 179 x 125 mm, (vii) 101 pp. Bound in half algae green morocco, two raised bands, five gilded bands, name printed vertically in gilt print letters, date on the bottom. Marbled papers with a touch of bright copper on covers, multiple white pages on both ends. White and green headbands. Title page, Translator's preface, Historical argument by the author. Each chapter is merely "Chapter XX", no table of contents. "I cannot allow my readers to remain ignorant of the name of Senhor J. de Alencar, the author of this and several other works; for he deserves to be as well known in England as in Brazil, and it must be the result of the usual modesty of a really clever man that he is not so. He is their first prose and romance writer." (Translator's preface) "In 1603, Pero Coelho, a gentleman of Parahyba, then already belonging to the Portuguese, arrived at the mouth of the river Jaguaribe in Ceará, with a command of 80 colonists and 800 Indians. He there founded the first settlement in Ceará, and called it Nova Lisboa. He was abandoned by his comrades when a certain João Soromenho was sent to him with reinforcements... He did not respect even the Indians of the Jaguaribe river, who were friendly to the Portuguese. This proved the downfall of the growing settlement: the natives resented such tyranny. Pero Coelho, with his wife and young children, was compelled to fly by land to his own province." (Alencar's Historical argument)‎

‎Mexican Cook Book Cookbook For American Homes / Libro De Cocina Mexicana Par El Hogar Americano Bilingual English and Spanish‎

‎Mexico City Mexico: Culinary Arts Institute. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1956. Second Edition. Hardcover. Offers authentic recipes from every region of the Mexican Republic. Adapted for use in the United States Central and South America. Author 1899-1968 "was a Mexican cook researcher writer and teacher. She was a pioneer of Mexican gastronomy and an entrepreneur of Mexican cuisine." - Wikipedia. "Before Rick Bayless before Diana Kennedy Josefina Velázquez de León was the sage of the Mexican kitchen Mexico's original celebrity chef." - Lesley Tellez. "Between the 1930s and 1960s she published over 140 cookbooks ran a cooking academy and hosted TV and radio shows. She is the woman responsible for giving a national face to regional Mexican cuisine." - laplazala on Instagram. "Her most important book is her only bilingual work the 'Mexican Cook Book Devoted to American Homes' published in 1947. Decades later it remains a classic. In a clear approachable tone Josefina breaks down iconic recipes such as tomato-infused Mexican rice refried beans chilaquiles and mole poblano. She traveled throughout Mexico and collected home cooks' recipes into books unifying what was then a disparate collection of locally known dishes. No one has matched her output and zeal or done more to shape Mexican food's culinary identity." - Lesley Tellez. Our research suggests this example is a slightly renamed second edition of the 1947 first edition mentioned above. 10-320 pp. Detailed Table of Contents at back. Light wear to original dark cerulean cloth lettered and ruled in gilt. Binding intact. Contents uniformly tanned with age remarkably clean and unmarked. No dust jacket presumably as issued. A rare and wonderfully preserved example of this Mexican epicurean classic. 19.6 x 14.5 cm. Axford p. 269. ; Drawings; 8vo . Culinary Arts Institute hardcover‎

‎1871 1872 1873 and 1880; the first three from 3 Plowden Buildings Temple and the last from 4 Marine Parade Dover. ITEM ONE note one page 12mo 3 December 1871 remains of grey paper mount adhering to verso of blank second leaf of bifolium: Apologises for sending a undated note: 'I daresay you can manage to fix at about what period it was written'. ITEM TWO note one page 8vo 12 December 1872 on creased aged paper: Declining a dinner invitation. ITEM THREE letter one page 8vo 21 November 1873 on aged paper heavily chipped at head and foot: He has just described Draper's paper to Blanchard who 'thinks it just the very thing they want. They like to have dates. If you have the original bill I would think that might go in.' Blanchard wants Draper to send it 'to Edward Leigh Era Office as soon as you can'. 'He is not quite sure whether they are full or not. But I think it would be worth trying. It is much too good a <> to be thrown away.' ITEM FOUR letter one page 8vo 13 October 1880 good in purple ink on lightly aged paper docketed second leaf of bifolium a little grubby and with traces of previous mount adhering: It is good of Draper to say he will send the 'Mathematical Song': 'It is one of the very best comic songs I know of.' He 'will take good care no one has a copy'. Draper's letter 'with regard to bookbinding brought many replies'. 'The "monsters" came in shoals & I shall probably have some difficulty in making a selection.' He was amused to hear about Ledbury 'and will get the paper'. Says he has 'been doing the "Lays of a Lazy Minstrel" in Punch lately. "Le Sportsman" in the current number is mine.' On his return hopes to have 'a smoke & a chat' with Draper at his 'place'. Assumes that Draper knows about the states of Hogarth's plates. Addresses of three recommended London bookbinders in Ashby-Sterry's hand on second leaf together with directions to Carter Draper's Hampshire home in Drapers hand. 1871, 1872, 1873 and 1880; the first three from 3 Plowden Buildings, Temple, and the last from 4 Marine Parade, Dover. unknown‎

‎Joseph Simpson (1879-1939), English artist, engraver and cartoonist [George Bernard Shaw; Maxim Gorky; Gabriele D'Annunzio; Thom‎

‎Joseph Simpson English artist and cartoonist. Signed proofs of six prints caricaturing George Bernard Shaw; Maxim Gorky; Hall Caine; Thomas Hardy; Algernon Charles Swinburne and J. Pierpont Morgan' 'London Opinion' and 'Lions'.‎

‎First published in the weekly magazine 'London Opinion'. Reprinted in the book 'Lions' published in New York and San Francisco by Morgan Shepard Co. 1906. Simpson was a native of Carlisle in Cumbria and came to London in the early years of the twentieth century where he was encouraged by Frank Brangwyn to take up etching. In 1918 he was made official artist with the new Royal Air Force. The National Portrait Gallery has eight of Simpson's works but none of the present six which are all in the style of the artist's portrait 'ink irregular' of the Earl of Halsbury present in the Gallery's collection.Each of the six caricatures is printed in black within a 17 x 12 cm border. Each has Simpson's original pencil signature three in grey and three in orange outside the border in the bottom right-hand corner. All six are printed on thin paper ranging in size from 18 x 13cm to 19.5 x 13cm and each is backed on a piece of card from 19 x 13.5cm to 21 x 16cm. All six in good condition on aged paper with minimal spotting with the card mounts showing evidence of previous framing. These six caricatures are uncommon: they are not among the eight Simpson items held by the National Portrait Gallery. Originally produced for the 'London Opinion' weekly magazine they were among the fourteen which featured in the 1906 book 'Lions' New York and San Francisco: Morgan Shepard Co. The book itself is scarce: it was only published in America and there are no copies in English libraries listed on COPAC or among the twelve on OCLC WorldCat. In the introduction to 'Lions' C. Haldane Macfall 1860-1928 ranks Simpson with Max Beerbohm F. Carruthers Gould and E. T. Reed as one of the leading English caricaturists adding that there is 'no living caricaturist who can approach Joseph Simpson in decorative sense in massing and arrangement or for beauty of artistry'. Macfall regards Simpson's portrait of Gorky as 'the finest portrait of the Russian upon which I have so far set eyes' and commends 'the aggressiveness of SHAW . the solemn earnestness of HALL CAINE . the poetic absorption of his SWINBURNE'. Simpson was a native of Carlisle in Cumbria and came to London at the beginning of the twentieth century. In 1918 he was made official artist of the Royal Air Force. He was a close friend of Frank Brangwyn whose influence is apparent in his work. [First published in the weekly magazine 'London Opinion'.
