‎The Peverel Papers: A Year Book of the Countryside‎

‎Ebury Press. Very Good/Very Good. 1986. Hard Cover. 8vo 0712612963 Dust jacket complete except price clipped some wear. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. B&w illustrations 224pp. clean and tight. Flora Thompson is famous for her unique masterpiece Lark Rise to Candleford which describes Oxfordshire country life in the 188os when she was a child. It is not widely known however that for many years of her life she lived further south in Hampshire and wrote some of her finest prose there. These writings took the form of monthly contributions to a magazine called the Catholic Fireside now long defunct and describe the natural history and rural life of the neighbourhood month by month throughout the year. Her very individual style of writing her appealing and sensitive outlook on life her accurate and detailed understanding of natural phenomena - all the qualities for which Lark Rise eventually made her famous - are present. What is now published here in hook form for the first time is undoubtedly an important literary discovery. For those who already know Flora Thompson's work it also has considerable biographical interest for it reveals a number of new aspects of her life and personality which will be a revelation: the methods she used to overcome her insecurity as a writer her literary models and ideals and her dreams of a more leisured and creative life than that of wife to the postmaster of a small Hampshire town. Despite the sense of frustration and disappointment which she carried with her all her life everything she wrote is imbued with robust common sense wisdom and humour. The book is charmingly illustrated throughout with woodcuts and line illustrations by C. F. Tunnicliffe mostly dating from the same period as the text. . Ebury Press unknown‎

‎Maud Berkeley Adapted by Flora Fraser‎

‎Maud: The Diaries of Maud Berkeley‎

‎Martin Secker & Warburg Ltd. Very Good/Very Good. 1985. Hard Cover. 4to 0436256770 Dust jacket complete unclipped. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. Fully illustrated in colour and b/w with the diarist's own drawings plus contemporary photographs and map. With an introduction by Elizabeth Longford. 92 pages clean and tight. Dimensions: 27 x 24.8 x 3 cm. Maud Berkeley was a remarkable woman. Born into the amiable comforts of the Victorian middle class she was an acute observer of the world around her both in her sketches and her prose. Even in the confined world of the Isle of Wight she contrived to squeeze every ounce of pleasure out of life. We follow her adventures on walking expeditions at picnics dances; as she throws herself wholeheartedly into amateur dramatics concerts tennis matches dressmaking and painting classes. Whether in her ironical and amused picture of her father-`The Great G' as she calls him-or of the milieu of tea parties and disastrous country outings she brings incomparably to life the foibles and obsessions of a lost and gentler age. For the twentieth century reader the picture is all the more extraordinary for the restraints and ambiguities of Victorian society. Was it quite proper to accept a cup of tea from a male acquaintance who had directed Maud to the boat in Portsmouth Probably not. Would it be `fast' to let shy Mr von Hacht paint her portrait even if he pictured her as the perfect type of British spinster Emphatically yes. There is the ever present desire to find freedom through a suitable husband. When she marries her delightful widower she begins a new series of adventures in London with shopping sprees visits to the alarming Turkish baths and chaperoning her ebullient young stepdaughters. Elizabeth Longford's introduction gives us all the benefit of her knowledge and incisive understanding of the Victorian Age. Her granddaughter Flora Fraser has adapted Maud's diary superbly-elucidating where necessary and placing Maud's remarkable story in its true historical context. .

No ownership marks. Colour & b/w plates. 476 pages clean and tight.On the surface the sisters were busy accomplished girls but the real story beneath their composed image was quite different - no one who reads Princesses will ever look in the same way again at the calm composed women in Gainsborough's portraits. The King may have believed that his six daughters were happy to live celibately with him and Queen Charlotte at Windsor but secretly as Flora Fraser's absorbing narrative of royal repression and sexual licence shows the sisters enjoyed startling freedom. The historical searchlight has been turned with great intensity and sympathy on George III and his family and the sweep of history between the Regency and Victorian eras.

At the tawdry extravagant heart of the Regency period - nine scandalous politically fascinating years from 1811 to 1820 - lies the bitter mismatch between the Prince and Princess of Wales. The Prince Regent later George IV separated privately from Caroline of Brunswick Princess of Wales later Queen Caroline within a year of their marriage in 1795. They remained separated until her death in 1821 but the mockery of their marriage resisted the most strenuous and public efforts to dissolve it. Barred from the Regent's court Caroline travelled through Europe with a small court of her own. At her divorce trial the dignity and honour of the British Crown was in shreds and Britain on the brink of revolution. Queen Caroline's story is one of a long courageous fight by an extraordinary individual to see justice done to her in the face of an overweening and powerful authority. This detailed biography by an acclaimed historian is long overdue. . Macmillan hardcover‎

‎Stark Flora ; Lawrence Durrell foreword‎

‎The Journey's Echo Selections From Freya Stark‎

‎London: John Murray. Very Good/Good. 1963. First Edition. Hard Cover. 8vo Dust jacket unclipped some wear. Green cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. Name on ffep. Photographs on plates. xiv 224 pages clean and tight. Of Miss Stark's most recent book The Times said: `The language is as beautiful as ever the descriptions as sharp the insight into men and places as suddenly revealing'. This definition of her qualities makes it obvious that an anthology of selections from her books can give rare pleasure not only for the reader who already knows and treasures her illumination of the Arab World and the Middle East but for those discovering her charm and importance for the first time. The choice of extracts has been made without any particular object except to illustrate Miss Stark as a writer a traveller and a commentator. The sequence is arranged chronologically irrespective of publication so that the autobiographies fall into place among the travel books and those intriguing volumes on Asia Minor where she followed the path of Alexander the Great. If it is true that one of the essentials of an anthology is variety this book will satisfy all tastes. It is rich in humanities; in Miss Stark's own personal patterns and attachments; in men women and children in age-old or modern backgrounds living by a hundred traditions domestic ceremonial official or tribal; in countries whose magic at all hours of the day and night in all seasons and weathers sparkles in exact pictures; in the hazards triumphs and anxieties of wartime history in the making; and in those deeper reflections and the individual wisdom of a mind that has grown rich on the treasures it has discovered and won for itself. .
