The Navarre Society was a London-based publishing house active primarily in the 1920s and 1930s known for producing high-quality limited and finely bound editions of classic literature. Specializing in works by authors like Boccaccio Casanova and Montaigne their publications often featured gilt-decorated cloth bindings and at times illustration plates. Key Aspects of the Navarre Society: Specialization: They focused on reprints of classic often "adventurous" or classic literature such as The Decameron of Giovanni Boccaccio The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova and The Essays of Montaigne. Production Style: Books were often published as "privately printed for the Navarre Society" featuring deluxe editions on quality paper with gilt-decorated bindings. Active Period: While publishing primarily around the 1920s e.g. Browse a list of titles published by the Navarre Society from the Open Library. NOTE: This is an original book from the library gathered by the famous Cambridge Don computer scientist food and wine connoisseur Jack Arnold LANG. Note: Jack founded the Michelin Guide 'Midsummer House'- Cambridge's paramount restaurant. This dining experience is hidden amongst the grassy pastures and grazing cattle of Midsummer Common and perched on the banks of the River Cam. In 2008 Jack was one of the co-founders of the Raspberry Pi Foundation alongside other members of the Department and acted as the Foundation's Chair. The project's original goals were modest: to build and distribute low-cost computers for prospective applicants to our Computer Science degree. Initially the project was a "success disaster" as Jack would say as demand far outstripped the low-scale manufacturing plans. Ultimately the Raspberry Pi became the UK's most successful computer with more than 60 million sold to date. Jack was drawn to the educational possibilities of the Raspberry Pi its potential uses in emerging economies and the way it could support self-directed learning.
