1803ref. 54894London: Printed by and for C. and R. Baldwin 1803. Very good. First edition of this collection celebrating the revival of the sonnet tracing its history from Spenser to Shakespeare and Milton through contemporaries Charlotte Smith Mary Robinson and a young Leigh Hunt. The English sonnet fell out of fashion in the early 18th century only to come roaring back to popularity with the publication of Charlotte Smith's ELEGIAC SONNETS in 1784. But this volume provides a much wider and more nuanced picture of the development of the English sonnet including Smith's predecessor Thomas Edwards and her contemporaries Anna Seward whom Henderson especially likes William Lisle Bowles Helen Maria Williams and Mary Robinson. Henderson's introduction contextualizes the wide range of sonnets included from the amatory Robinson to the elegiac Smith. This compendium established the state of playing field for the form in the Romantic era and it was a favorite form of Coleridge Keats Shelley and Wordsworth. Coleridge wrote a pamphlet celebrating the form in 1796 and the first poem Wordsworth published was "Sonnet on Seeing Miss Helen Maria Williams Weep" in 1787 an homage to Williams and Charlotte Smith both. A notable Romantic-era collection unusual in so widely acknowledging the debts of English poetry to women writers. Contemporary half roan marbled paper boards gilt-ruled and -lettered spine. Red speckled edges. Illustrated with engraved frontispiece and two further full-page engravings by T.W. Tomkins after P. Henderson. xl 192 pages. Some pencil notes to endpapers. Binding rubbed at extremities some foxing largely marginal to first few gatherings. Printed by and for C. and R. Baldwin unknown

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.
