SUMPTUOUS CRIMSON STRAIGHT-GRAIN MOROCCO GILT BY MORRELL stamp-signed on front turn-ins covers with wide frame decorated with Neoclassical ornaments raised bands spine compartments framed by volutes and flowers gilt lettering gilt-framed turn-ins scarlet watered silk endleaves leather hinges top edges gilt. WITH 30 HAND-COLORED PLATES as called for including a double-page view of the Battle of Waterloo a folding battle plan for Ligny and a folding map of the route from Brussels to Paris the last two expertly repaired and backed in linen and EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED WITH 66 PLATES eight of these hand-colored most portraits of military leaders. With "Portraits of General Officers" used as the frontispiece as in Abbey in place of the seldom-seen plate "Waterloo in Memory of Shaw of the Life Guards" that appears in some copies but is not on the list of plates. With an ALS dated Dublin Castle 1st Oct 1819 signed by Lord Whitworth. Front flyleaves with engraved armorial bookplate of Frederick S. Peck. Abbey "Life" 372; Tooley 336; Cohn "Cruikshank" 556. ◆Joints edges and corners with visible but not serious wear one plate with neatly repaired marginal tear just touching edge of image occasional mild foxing additional trivial imperfections otherwise fine--clean and fresh internally with richly colored plates in a lustrous binding bright with gilt. This is a very attractively illustrated celebration of Wellington's victorious campaign against Napoleon offered here in a special copy enhanced by additional plates many depicting principal actors in the conflict and a stately Neoclassical binding. Famed illustrator George Cruikshank drew the frontispiece depicting the seven general officers for the British side along with the ebullient illustrated title depicting victory the double-page plate of the fateful Battle of Waterloo and the ignominious "Flight of Bonaparte." The plates contributed by James Rouse mostly depict the countryside and villages in the area where fighting was taking place. Journalist and novelist William Mudford 1782-1848 wrote the text with assistance from primary sources among these the Duke of Wellington himself to whom the work is dedicated. Mudford was the editor of the "Courier" an evening journal with a conservative stance on politics. His prose is described as "vigorous" by the "Dictionary of Literary Biography" which also notes his flair for creating atmosphere. These gifts were brought to bear on the present account rendering this historic campaign in vivid terms. The manuscript letter inserted into the second volume was written by Lord Charles Whitworth 1752-1825 Lord Lieutenant of Ireland at the time of writing. He had been the British Ambassador to France when Napoleon was first consul and had gained much respect for the determination and dignity with which he had handled the mercurial Bonaparte's tirades against his country. Here he recommends to an unknown recipient the person who had conducted financial affairs for him in France. The present bindings are the work of the London bindery of W. T. Morrell established about 1861 as successor to the firm begun by Francis Bedford who in turn had taken over the famous bindery of Charles Lewis. Prideaux in her "Modern Bookbindings" says that Morrell at that time had a very large business that supplied "all the booksellers with bindings designed by his men" which were "remarkable for their variety and merit." The scion of an old and prosperous New England family former owner Frederick Stanhope Peck 1868-1947 was an avid collector of books and manuscripts amassing a collection of more than 8000 titles. When his library went to auction in 1944 it was noted for its fine bindings and excellent condition. Henry Colburn unknown

réf. B9780521180139Paperback / softback. New. This 1971 book offers a different approach to the standard industry textbook. Throughout the book Silver considers real processes: conventional introductions to thermodynamics are limited to idealised reversible processes. Another major difference is that he avoids the unusual procedure of hiding important difficulties in thermodynamic concepts under premature definitions. paperback
