Biography of Catherine the Great; From the jacket: "Formidably and self- educated she was extremely hard-working with a commitment to ideas and a charismatic personality. She also flouted the conventions of female rule by consorting openly with twelve successive favourites each younger than the last. The fact that Catherine was a woman in a position of absolute power generated both the highest admiration and the most vicious satire. Simon Dixon creates a fully rounded portrait against the fascinating background of her court as no other biography." Profile Books Ltd hardcover books

Two Letters from a Mother to Her Child with integrated naive drawings August 1929
Boston MA Aug-29. The envelope is toned due to age and the letters themselves some minor soiling otherwise fine. . Two whimsical letters from a mother to one of her two daughters Elizabeth Simon nicknamed Betty. The first letter mentions a visit to their cousin Ruth who has two cats on her roof. The missive continues on asking her how here hay fever is doing and if she has had anytime to play with the kitten next door. Lastly it mentions the mother has been so busy that morning that even though it is 11 AM she still hasn't had time to fix her hair.The letter is embellished with four pen and ink drawing- two cats on a roof of house little girl playing with cats four children riding on a horse and two children playing in the water. The second letter is longer than the first. It starts with the mother telling Betty that she has been feeling better lately though her hip is hurting her pretty badly so she will most likely stop riding soon. It discusses a visit from their Aunt and a picnic lunch she had a Lake Waldon. There she watched several children on a water slide. She then inquires after what Betty has been doing in her spare time and if she has any stories to share such as a stubbed toe perhaps or a bee landed on her nose It ends with the hope that Betty will borrow her sister's Barbara's water wings to help her float. In-text drawings of a water slide a child landing in the water and presumably Betty with a bee on her nose. Measures 5 1/4" x 3 1/4" folded card <br/><br/> unknown books
