For instance in the early 20th century South African Kaffir missionary John B Radasi refers to Kaffir Zulu and Fingoe people and languages and does not mention the word Xhosa at all. Cloth. Poor.

EDITH SOUTHER TUFTS
1924-1928 Diary of the Edith Souther Tufts the New Hampshire-Born Female Professor and Long-Time Wellesley College Dean of Residence
Wellesley Massachusetts Mass MA. Fair with no dust jacket. Softcover. On offer is the diary of a woman ahead of her time who spent her life in academia advocating for womens education through her roles as professor of Greek and later Dean of Residence at Wellesley College. Edith Souther Tufts 1862-1935 was born in Dover New Hampshire to Dr. Charles Augustus Tufts 1821-1899 and Anne Blanchard Souther 1827-1907. Dr. Tufts was well-known in Dover as a pharmacist physician councilman alderman town clerk associate judge and senator. He ran the family apothecary shop which had been opened by his father Asa Alfred Tufts in 1815 and was one of the oldest apothecary shops in the country. Edith completed a five-year B. A. In Music from Wellesley College in 1885 a M. A. From Yale in 1895 and was granted an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of New Hampshire in 1927. She taught Greek at Wellesley College and then at the Norwich Free Academy. In 1902 she returned to Wellesley where she remained for the duration of her career. Tufts was named Dean of Residence at Wellesley in 1919 and held that position until her retirement in 1930. She was a trustee of the University of New Hampshire. She passed away suddenly while attending a Wellesley class of 1884 reunion. At the time of her death Tufts was staying at the Presidents House with her dear lifelong friend and Wellesley president Ellen Fitz Pendleton 1864-1936. Edith writes of Pendleton regularly referring to her mostly as E. F. P. in her diary. While Tufts was never married and had no children she clearly had extremely fulfilling and loving female friendships. Ediths diary is rich with details of her working life social life and summer travel and activities such as the trip to Europe in Summer 1924 which involved Pendleton. Though she is 62-years-old when she begins her diary Edith is an incredibly busy and sought-after academic balancing her work as professor and dean with her speaking engagements and event commitments. She also notes the goings-on of other faculty members and administrators. While Tufts is a successful and well-respected professional she remains humble. For example she was granted an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from University of New Hampshire on June 20 1927. Her diary entry for the day makes it seem like she simply took an unremarkable day trip back home: Drove by motor for Durham at 7am. Lake Minnie
to Dover and bring Sandy and Marion back. Meet J. A. T and G. Sawyer. Interesting exercise. Address by C. R. Browne Charles Reynolds Browne Dean of the Yale Divinity School. Lunch with J. A. T and E. C. S. Reach Wellesley in time for dinner June 20 1927. Ediths writing varies by day. Some days she writes detailed newsy entries some days she skips altogether and some days she makes cursory notes with only the highlights. Most days she is engaging in activities connected to Wellesleys academics recruitment or housing and building operations. Some excerpts give the flavour of her writing: .Take train to Leamington. Change at Stratford. Reach L. Between 5 to 6. E. F. P. Already there. ABM arrives shortly
Room with E. F. P. Aug 51924. Village after breakfast to talk about room for French instructors. Office hours. Call from Pauline Hayes. Keep her to lunch with group of contemporary alumnae.

And me to dinner w Miss Chapin. Alarm of fire at Eliot Hall shortly after two. Apparently from chimney. Hole burned in roof but no serious damage. Thankful! Oct 7 1928. The 1920s were a time of great change for American women. The decade opened with women winning the right to vote and womens voices were becoming stronger. More women began entering postsecondary institutions and finding their places in the workforce. Tufts and her Wellesley contemporaries were many steps ahead having held advanced degrees and leadership positions in higher education for years. Tufts diary is an exceptional document for those interested in the history of Wellesley College the role and experience of American women in the 1920s women in leadership roles and the leadership faculty and students of Wellesley College between 1924-1928. The diary measures 6.75x4 inches. It is a 5-year diary containing 365 pages plus memoranda. Edith has filled approximately 70% of the diary. While her periods of consistent writing and breaks are sporadic she seems to forget to write for most of December each year. The diary covers shows signs of age and are faded and chipping. The spine is in-tact but loose. All pages are present and attached. The writing is in pencil and is very legible though Tufts handwriting is sometimes rushed and challenging to interpret. Overall the diary is Fair to Good. ; Manuscripts; 16mo 6" - 7" tall; 365 pages . paperback

Rose June
MISTRESS OF MONTMARTRE Aa Life of Suzanne Valadon
London: Richard Cohen Books 1998. UK First publication No markings Fine in unclipped Fine dust jacket. Hardcover 284pp index B&W photos and illus augmeented with colour plates. While researching her book on Modigliani June Roe became interested in his friend Suzanne Valadon. She spent two years in France meeting srtistic and family connections of Valadon in preparation of this work. She posed for Renoir and Toulouse-Lautrec; Degas was so impressed by her drawings that he became the first to purchase a work by this self-taught female artist. But though Suzanne Valadon 1865-1938 gloried in the carefree bohemian artistic scene of Paris's Montmartre neighborhood in the 1880s and '90s she really came into her own during the early years of the 20th century when a passionate love for a man 20 years her junior led her to abandon a bourgeois husband and devote herself anew to art. She set to work with a renewed serenity but the same "unfeminine" boldness of line and earthy sexuality that had dismayed tradition-minded viewers from the beginning. It was she who taught her illegitimate son Maurice Utrillo to paint in a desperate attempt to wean him from his addiction to alcohol. His fame surpasses hers today in part because male art historians preferred salacious tales of Valadon's many loves and scandalous exploits to sober assessments of her artistic gifts. British art biographer June Rose restores Valadon to her proper place as a peer of the great postimpressionists in a readable narrative that puts her freewheeling personal life into perspective as a product of the same refusal to be constrained by conventional wisdom that fired her art. --Wendy Smith. 2.1 JM HOJ 301/4. 1st. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾". Richard Cohen Books Hardcover
