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. Sir Sidney Colvin 1845-1927 was an English curator and literary and art critic part of the illustrious Anglo-Indian Colvin family. He is primarily remembered for his friendship with Robert Louis Stevenson and his Life of John Keats. <br/><br/> London: Macmillan and Co., Limited, 1917 hardcover‎

Housed in its original green morocco edged chamois lined faux aligator over board slipcase a little rubbed at extremities. A truly spectacular and early example of a Cosway Binding. 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

William Combe 1741-1823 "prolific English writer of miscellaneous prose and satirical verse whose poem The Tour of Dr. Syntax in Search of the Picturesque 1812 was one of the most popular books of early 19th-century England.Dr. Syntax was introduced in 1809 in The Poetical Magazine. Combe's first Dr. Syntax book and its successors The Second Tour of Dr. Syntax in Search of Consolation 1820 and The Third Tour.in Search of a Wife 1821 satirize the many 18th- and early 19th-century writers whose 'Tours' 'Travels' and 'Journeys' were vehicles for sententious moralizing uninspired raptures and sentimental accounts of amorous adventures. The popularity of Combe's work owed much to the illustrations of Thomas Rowlandson.
