Novographic reprint “Cheap” editions of this ostensible autobiographical memoir regaling the British readers with Guest’s 1901-1975 life of crime from early theft and burglary rings along with confidence scams in the UK to rum-running bootlegging and eventual incarceration in San Quentin Prison in California. While violent mob violence as experienced by Chicago New York and environs during Prohibition was largely nonexistent in Great Britain the British newspapers awed readers with never-ending tales of American armed robberies and Guest under his Spenser pseudonym stepped into advise the British public an invasion of American gangsters was imminent with peaceful Britain open for the pickings. He also published an account of being held as a German POW during World War I under “An aukward marine.” All early printings are scarce and dustjackets even more so.

First published in 1595 Spenser wrote this ode for his bride on their wedding day. It is printed here as the fifth work in the Essex House Press Great Poems Series. The Essex House Press was founded by Charles Robert Ashbee and Laurence Hodson following the closure of William Morris's Kelmscott Press in 1897 and "came from the heart of the arts and crafts movement" Franklin p. 64. Ashbee bought the Kelmscott Press's Albion printing presses after William Morris's death and employed one of the Kelmscott compositors Thomas Binning. In 1902 "a bindery was established in the Guild under the direction of Annie Power who had been a student of Douglas Cockerell" Crawford p. 400. For this work Florence Kingsford Cockerell 1871-1949 one of the leading book illuminators of the English arts and crafts movement provided the illuminated letters. Kingsford Cockerell studied calligraphy under Edward Johnston and predominantly worked for the Ashendene Press. Octavo. Printed in Caslon type.

1596ref. 165717London: Printed for William Ponsonbie 1596. For there is nothing lost that may be found if sought First complete edition comprising the first edition of the second part and the second edition of the first part. Written in praise of Elizabeth I and dedicated to her Spenser's allegorical masterpiece follows the adventures of six medieval knights drawing on Arthurian legend Italian romance classical epic and Chaucer. John Dryden notes that "Spencer more than once insinuates that the Soul of Chaucer was transfus'd into his Body; and that he was begotten by him Two hundred years after his Decease" Dryden f. A1. In its mingling of genres the poem represented a new departure in English poetry for which Spenser invented a new stanza "a hybrid form adopted from the Scots poetry of James I 'rhyme royal' and Italian 'ottava rima'" ODNB. Spenser began composing the work in the 1570s sharing "parcels" of it among friends. Though no rough drafts autograph copies or foul papers for the poem have survived the poet alludes to a manuscript copy as early as 1580 when in a letter to Gabriel Harvey he asks for one to be returned to him: "I wil in hande forthwith with my Faery Queene whyche I praye you hartily send me with al expedition: and your frendly Letters and long expected Iudgement wythal" Three Proper and wittie familiar Letters. The poem or some part of it was almost certainly circulating in manuscript in London in 1588 when Abraham Fraunce quotes a stanza in his Arcadian Rhetorick correctly citing its book and canto "Spencer in his Faerie queene.2.book.cant.4". The first part was finally printed in 1590 - possibly intended to coincide with the publication of Philip Sidney's Arcadia - and the second part followed with a new edition of the first in 1596. Spenser likely composed some of the second part around 1593 as the conversion of Henry IV of France to Catholicism that year provides the historical basis for the Burbon episode in Book V. The poem now six books was entered into the Stationers' Register on 20 January 1596 suggesting publication had been planned to fall during Elizabeth I's Grand Climacteric - her 63rd year thought by astrologers to be critical - which had begun on 7 September 1595. In 1599 with only six of his twelve planned books completed Spenser died - his two fragmentary Cantos of Mutabilitie thought to be intended for Book VII are the only additional material published with the first folio edition of 1609. Provenance: from the library of Henry White 1822-1900 of Queen's Gate London with his armorial bookplate on the front pastedowns and sold in his 1902 Sotheby's sale lot 2028. The book was bound likely for White himself by Roger de Coverly 1831-1914 the London binder under whom T. J. Cobden-Sanderson trained. An old description mounted on the front pastedown of the first volume likely from a turn-of-the-century exhibition notes that the books were "lent by H. White Esq.". 2 vols small quarto 195 x 145 mm. Woodcut device of printer Richard Field to title pages full-page woodcut to M5 verso. Bound by Roger de Coverly in late 19th-century red crushed morocco spines with five raised bands lettered in gilt direct to second and third compartments remaining compartments richly gilt triple gilt fillet border to covers edges and turn-ins gilt marbled endpapers gilt edges.

1802ref. 162693London: J. Heath and G. Kearsley 1802. In handsome contemporary tree calf First Aikin edition in a very attractive contemporary binding and with pleasing engravings by James Heath 1757-1834 "one of the leading line engravers of his time" ODNB. The illustrations are after Thomas Stothard; in "making this artist his especial study Heath gained a great reputation and by is talent and tasteful execution gave a great impulse to book illustration" Redgrave p. 199. The text is a revision of that used by Samuel Johnson in his Works of the English Poets 1799-81. The editor John Aikin 1747-1822 was a surgeon and literary biographer who found in London "a warm welcome and became a minor literary success. His circle of friends included Thomas Pennant the naturalist; Erasmus Darwin; James Montgomery; John Howard the philanthropist; and for a time Robert Southey" ODNB. 6 vols octavo 207 x 124 mm. Frontispiece and 12 steel-engraved plates by James Heath after Thomas Stothard. Contemporary tree calf red and green spine labels smooth spines decorated in gilt board edges gilt edges sprinkled dark green.
