1930ref. 15527New York: Covici Friede. Good. 1930. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket light external water-spotting mostly to rear cover short bends at bottom corners of first two pages Gentle satire of the "Ex-" genre of confessional fiction that had a brief vogue in the late 1920s "Ex-Wife" and "Ex-Mistress" being the prime examples as a former baby looks back from the perspective of his 4th birthday and tells all about "the memories the joys and the sorrows of my youth." Although no author's name appears on the book it's attributed to novelist/screenwriter Aben Kandel by the Library of Congress and others; the book's dedication reads "For Stephen without whose active assistance this book could never have been written" -- a reference no doubt to Stephen Kandel b.1927 who grew up to become a television writer of some note. .

1822ref. 329Edinburgh: Macredie Skelly & Co 1822. First Edition. A good plus copy uncut in the publisher's original orange marbled boards with a printed paper spine label the spine worn and chipped with loss and hinges weak. Relatively scarce in the 21st century though an apparently popular work at the time which saw a second edition in the same year and a third edition in 1825. First edition of a scarce historical romance about Mary Queen of Scots published to coincide with the visit of George IV to Scotland in 1822 the first by a reigning monarch since that of Charles II in 1651. A work clearly brimming with Scottish nationalist sentiment the preface by the "authors" states the novel was "sketched some years ago" but was written "when a rumour arose that an unknown author of great power Sir Walter Scott in publishing The Abbott in 1820 was about to bring back to our ken the days and fortunes of Queen Mary." However disappointed that Scott only featured Mary while imprisoned rather than covering her reign this novel was published to show that a historical romance "could be used to serve the purposes of contemporary Scottish patriotism" offering "Mary as a sexily vulnerable icon around whom a brotherhood of modern national subjects are confidently expected to rally." Dobson Lost Mother LRB Vol. 22 No. 4 17 February 2000. 8vo. 2 v 1 9-194pp.; with the half-title. Garside 1822:4. Macredie, Skelly, & Co unknown books
