Binding tight and square pages clean bright and unmarked. 1984 Trade Paperback. 101 3 pp. The Cambridge Springs is a popular defence to the Queen's Gambit that takes its name from the famous tournament in 1904 during which it was tested in a number of games. Since then it has become firmly established as a club-player's favourite since Black sets a number of traps and can generate a very quick initiative if White fails to respond precisely. Several world champions have used the Cambridge Springs most notably Alekhine and Smyslov while Kasparov has played it on occasion including a sensationally quick victory over Karpov in 1985.

1943Best.-Nr. 23161New York: The Macmillan Company. Very Good. 1943. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket spine slightly turned light shelfwear to bottom edge small nick in cloth at bottom of front cover; vintage bookseller's label Kendrick Bellamy Denver on rear pastedown. Novel about a career woman a young widow who works as an account executive for a San Francisco ad agency who is sent by her boss for whom she's already set her cap on a working vacation to Baja California to check out the potential of a disused casino being refurbished and turned into a resort. While on this assignment she succumbs to the Mexican way of life falls in love with a local ranch owner and considers throwing it all over to stay down there. Then her boss shows up romantic and professional complications ensue and a hurricane helps them sort it all out. The New York Times critic faulted the book for lacking "that deep below-the-surface quality that might have given reality to her consciously contrived tale. Even the background presented with such earnest attention to detail seems never to lose the aura of travel folder literature." Kirkus Reviews on the other hand found it an "intelligently emotional women's novel" -- so like with most books the only way to find out for sure is to read it yourself. .

1990Best.-Nr. 49189New York: Battledore Ltd 1990. hardcover. Carroll Lewis. 6 x 9 inches. hardcover. 111 pages. Collectors and those interested in children's books will find this work fascinating as it unearths information about the first actual printing of Alice in Wonderland. Encouraged by his friends Reverend Charles Dodgson otherwise known as Lewis Carroll first had Alice published by Macmillan & Co. and printed by the Clarendon Press in June 1865 arranging to have a specially bound copy delivered to Alice Liddell the famous Alice for whom the story was spun the next month on July 4. However not several weeks after that John Tenniel the illustrator wrote to Dodgson complaining of his dissatisfaction with the printing of his illustrations. Macmillan examined one of the unbound copies of the book and agreed to fully reprint the book using a more commercial printer from London Richard Clay. The condemned printing was then sold to David Appleton & Co. an overseas publishing house who wanted to distribute copies of the book in America. Only 1952 copies were sold to them of the original 2000 copy print run. The title-pages were redone with a New York imprint dated 1866 the sheets were machine-folded and put into cloth bindings with Appleton's name on the lower spine and the new title-page substituted on a stub for the earlier one. Meanwile Macmillan completed its new edition in November 1865 but post-dated this printing 1866 in time for the holidays. As of this writing twenty-two copies of the original 1865 Alice are located and known to have survived with their original title-pages plus one copy presented to Christ Church Library currently lost by the author. This work resolves the whereabouts of Macmillan's file copy and hopefully provides a framework for future research. An excellent book which contains a wealth of information about the publication of Alice in Wonderland. Well-illustrated throughout. Battledore Ltd unknown books
