Barrie's novel The Little White Bird 1902 "contains the first sketches for Peter Pan. The narrator is 'a gentle whimsical lonely old bachelor' an author by profession whose ambition is to have a son. He meets a penniless young couple whose own son David becomes a substitute in his affections. He explains to David that 'all children in our part of London were once birds in the Kensington Gardens; and that the reason there are bars on nursery windows and a tall fender by the fire is because very little people sometimes forget that they no longer have wings and try to fly away through the window or up the chimney.' The central chapters of the book tell the story of one such child Peter Pan who 'escaped from being a human when he was seven days old.and flew back to the Kensington Gardens'.The Peter Pan chapters of The Little White Bird were re-issued in 1906 as Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens with colour plates by Arthur Rackham; this was the book which first made Rackham's work famous. It should not be confused with Peter and Wendy 1911 Barrie's novelization of the play Peter Pan" The Oxford Companion to Children's Literature. Latimore and Haskell p. 27. Riall p. 74. <br/><br/> London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1906 hardcover

London: Macmillan and Co. 1869. Alice in Wonderland in a Cosway Binding with a Fine Miniature Watercolor by Miss C.B. Currie The March Hare and the Mad Hatter dipping the Dormouse into the Teapot. COSWAY BINDING. RIVI�RE & SON binders. CURRIE Miss C.B. artist. CARROLL Lewis. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. With Forty-Two Illustrations by John Tenniel. London: Macmillan and Co. 1869. Sixteenth Thousand. Octavo 7 1/4 x 4 3/4 inches; 185 x 121 mm. xii 192 pp. Wood-engraved text illustrations. Bound ca. 1910 by Rivi�re & Son stamp-signed in gilt on the front turn-in for Henry Sotheran stamp-signed in black on the front free endpaper. Full brown crushed levant morocco. Covers decoratively paneled in gilt spine with five raised bands decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt in compartments double-ruled gilt board edges wide turn-ins decoratively tooled in gilt cream silk moir� doublures and liners all edges gilt. Upper joint expertly repaired. Front cover set with a fine 2 3/4 inch diameter watercolor portrait miniature under glass by Miss C.B. Currie of the March Hare and the Mad Hatter dipping the Dormouse into the Teapot. The miniature surrounded by a gilt pointille frame with a fine gilt floral design framing the quote "The end of the tea-party". Stamp-signed on the front doublure "Miniatures by C.B. Currie" and on the rear doublure "Bound by Rivi�re & Son from designs by J.H. Stonehouse." Original red cloth covers and spine bound in at end. An attractive example of a Cosway binding. Housed in it's original felt-lined brown cloth slipcase. In the first decade of the twentieth century the London bookselling firm of Henry Sotheran & Co. introduced a type of binding that was decorative had historic associations and catered to the level of quality expected by connoisseurs at the time. Between 1902 and 1903 John Harrison Stonehouse 1864-1937 managing director of Sotheran's created what came to be referred to as "Cosway bindings." These were named after the celebrated eighteenth-century English portrait miniaturist Richard Cosway 1742-1821. Cosway bindings are distinguished by their attractive finely painted miniatures on ivory that are protected by glass and inset into the covers or doublures inside covers of elegantly tooled books. Stonehouse's success with the bindings was due in part to his employment of skilled miniaturist Miss C. B. Currie. It has been estimated that Miss Currie painted several thousand miniatures recognized for their delicate rendering and precision for over nine hundred bindings before her death circa 1940. For many of the more lavish Cosway bindings Currie painted multiple portraits. Occasionally landscapes and other subjects adorn the covers or doublures. To enhance Currie's miniatures Stonehouse arranged for the London firm of Rivi�re & Son to produce a variety of high-quality single-volume bindings. One of the best large-scale binderies active in the first quarter of the twentieth century Rivi�re & Son integrated the miniatures into bindings for both previously published editions and new works. Stonehouse marketed Sotheran's finished Cosway-bound volumes primarily to booksellers in the United States or to American agents. Before Sotheran's 1911 catalogue in which they identified the miniature artist as Miss Currie the miniatures are attributable only by their recognizable style. By 1913 the bindings are distinguished by a limitation statement on a colophon leaf where a publisher's emblem or trademark is placed which provides the number of the Cosway binding with facsimile signatures of Stonehouse and Miss Currie. The customary gilt-stamped signature on the turn-in is generally lettered: "Bound by Rivi�re & Son from Designs by J. H. Stonehouse" and "Miniatures by C. B. Currie." Competitors intrigued by the marketing potential of Sotheran's Cosway volumes began copying the bindings soon after their initial introduction. Although the fashion for Cosway bindings diminished after World War II the London binderies of Sangorski & Sutcliffe and Morrell continued to produce morocco-bound volumes with inset miniature paintings. Perhaps the most prolific follower has been the still existing English firm of George Bayntun who acquired the Rivi�re stock of binding tools in 1939. <br/><br/> London: Macmillan and Co., 1869 hardcover

"To the name and work of Keats our best critics and scholars have in recent years paid even closer attention and warmer homage. But their studies have for the most part been specialized and scattered and there does not yet exist any one book giving a full and connected account of his life and poetry together in the the light of our present knowledge and with help of all the available material. Ever since it was my part some thirty years ago to contribute the volume on Keats to the series of short studies edited by Lord Morley the English Men of Letters series I have hoped one day to return to the subject and do my best to supply this want. The following pages. timed to appear in the hundredth year after the publication of Keat's first volume are the result." Preface.

Although unsigned both 'miniatures' are almost certainly the artwork of Miss C.B. Currie whose name was never mentioned on any Cosway-Bindings prior to 1911. Piscator the fisherman in the course of a five-day expedition teaches his friend how to bait a hook and catch several species of freshwater fish and then how to cook them. The majority of the book is comprised of a dialogue between Piscator the fisherman and Venator the hunter in which the former attempts to persuade the latter of the practical and spiritual merits of angling. Piscator reminds Venator that Saints Peter Paul and John "were all Fishers" before quoting verses from other keen anglers: Montaigne George Herbert and John Donne. The conversation takes place over several days on a fishing trip in the Lea Valley during which they journey from Tottenham to Ware in Hertfordshire. After the Bible and Shakespeare The Complete Angler remains one of the most reprinted books in the English language. Coigney 21d. <br/><br/> London: Samuel Bagster, 1815 hardcover
