First edition limited to 250 copies this being no. 46. 1 vols. Sm. 8vo. First in the Winnowings in American History Revolutionary Broadside Series. The Mauduit Hand Bill was a broadside published in London in 1778 purportedly at the instigation of and with the backing of Lord North. It was a plea to Parliament to give the Colonies independence immediately and those who attributed it to North assumed that the government view was separation but shortly thereafter additional troops and changes were authorized making it clear that this was not the case. <br/><br/> Historical Printing Club hardcover

London: William Heinemann 1894. Octavo pp. 1-2 i-iv v viii ix x xi-xii 1 2-400 note: preliminaries mis-paginated 20-page publisher's catalogue dated "December 1893" inserted at rear numerous illustrations in the text by George Hutchinson Phil May. F. H. Townsend A. J. Finberg Mark Zangwill and Irving Montagu original decorated terra cotta cloth front panel stamped in dark brown spine panel stamped in gold publisher's monogram stamped in dark brown on rear panel all edges untrimmed. First edition. A collection with several excellent supernatural stories. "A Double-Barrelled Ghost" is that rare thing a humorous ghost story that actually is funny. It concerns an author whose work is ghostwritten by a ghost. The comedy avoids the usual pitfalls of nineteenth century humor which can be seen now as having more to do with reinforcing class-consciousness than causing amusement: the condescending caricature of working class diction and mores or the strained assertion of leisure class diction and mores with their celebration of euphemism and impotence. "The Queen's Triplets" is a fractured fairy tale a clever parody of the form appealing to an intellectual elite. In "The Memory Clearing House" a means is devised for trading memories. An author of light romances wants to write a "realistic" novel so he buys the memories of a murderer who is happy to part with them and proceeds to write a first-person novelization of the murderer's crime. It is panned by the critics as unbelievable. Outraged the author goes to the police and shows them where the body is buried. He is arrested and convicted. The mystery classic "Cheating the Gallows" in which a premonitory dream plays a key part can be seen as a clever variation on the Jekyll-and-Hyde theme and perhaps even as a source for the later comedy "The Odd Couple" written by Neil Simon another popular Jewish author. Zangwill's wit is still fresh and his plot twists sharp. An underrated author today similar in some ways to his American contemporary Frank Stockton but more acerbic and cerebral. This book has been in print almost continually since its publication in 1894. The first edition is uncommon. Not in Bleiler 1948; 1978. Not in Reginald 1979. Day p. 96 citing a later edition. Gift inscription dated 3 October 1894 on front free endpaper. Cloth lightly rubbed at edges a bit of scuffing and dustiness to cloth a bit of tanning to front free endpaper but a sound very good copy overall. #149530 William Heinemann unknown
