1921rif. BIBLIO-18797Trustees of the British Museum London first edition 1921. 4 vols cloth 41 x 32 cm. xliv 360 vii 402 ix 384 xl pp 125 plates. . A contemporary review by Reginald L. Poole praises: ".the four stately volumes in large quarto now before us. No catalogue of any great library has ever been attempted on such a scale and certainly none can rival it in the completeness of its scholarship or the perfection of its work in detail. .The technical finish of the book is incomparable and the printers have co-operated in making it a splendid production. It is printed with wonderful accuracy in a noble type; the paper is excellent and the volumes are uncommonly easy to use. The catalogue of the Royal manuscripts occupies the first two volumes. The third contains a description of the King's manuscripts ; this collection inconveniently named forms part of the fine library of George III which was presented to the nation by George IV. That library is famous for its printed books but the 446 manuscripts in it comprise few of remarkable interest. Most of the volume is taken up by two indexes which call for special admiration. The general index is drawn up with extraordinary completeness. .The second index is of initia or incipits in various languages. The compilers say that ' the Royal collection includes so much of the common stock of a medieval library that the Latin index will it is hoped be found useful by many who may wish to identify unnamed treatises'. This is too modest an aspiration : the index covers so much longer a range of centuries than those of Vattasso and Little that it must at once rank as an indispensable work of reference for students of manuscripts. The fourth volume consists of a series of 125 plates giving beautifully reproduced facsimiles from 144 manuscripts of which two-thirds were written or probably written in England.The volume is an important contribution to palaeography.". From the introduction to the work: "The volume of plates fortunately prepared before the war forms a special feature of the Catalogue which it is hoped will be welcome both to palaeographers and to students of art. The 125 plates include representations of 99 manuscripts written or probably written in England and since nearly 50 of these are illuminated they serve to give a good idea of English mediaeval art the great merits of which are often ignored. French art which alone can rival it is well though not fully represented by 26 plates of which 24 are illuminated : Flemish and Italian work are less adequately represented. Four plates are devoted to handwritings of the 16th and 17th centuries and two to examples of the autographs of well-known scholars. A chronological table enables the student to follow the course of palaeographical and artistic development. A set formerly owned by C H St John Hornby founder of the Ashendene Press and noted collector of manuscripts with his red and black bookplate on the front pastedown endpapers. Some pencil notes to margins. Some mild rubbing to the cloth and the plate volume is a little shaken offsetting to endpapers otherwise a Very Good set with an excellent provenance.

'This little book had its origin in the 'herborisations' of the Apothecaries' Company to the master wardens and court of assistants of which it is dedicated … Though by no means free of errors the gPlantae Woodfordiensesg served as a model for Edward Jacob's gPlantae Favershamiensesg 1777 and in 1784 Thomas Furly Forster thought it worthwhile to print some thirteen pages of 'Additions'. In one of his own copies of the book now at Wadham College Warner had made several additions for an intended reissue.' DNB Richard Warner 1713–1775 was a botanist and literary scholar who in 1748 was visited by Pehr Kalm a pupil of Linnaeus then on his way to collect plants in North America. 'Warner took him to London to Peter Collinson's garden at Peckham to visit Philip Miller at Chelsea and to see the aged Sir Hans Sloane. In 1754 Warner received from the Cape of Good Hope the so-called Cape jasmine actually the gardenia a double-flowered form of a Chinese species which flowered for the first time in his hothouse four years later.' DNB. This the author's copy represents the book in its earliest state as it is bound without the gIndex of the Latin names as given by Linnæusg with the page numerals up to p. 238 printed in square brackets. In 1784 another appendix was added with an gIndex of the English Latin namesg extending the book to 255 pages. London: Printed for the Author,
1967rif. 21149351967. London: Jonathan Cape with Chatto & Windus 1967. 8vo. original brick-red publisher's cloth backstrip lettered in gilt; upper edge black; in the original unclipped jacket with a photograph of white to the upper panel and facsimile letter to the lower; pictorial endpapers; pp. vii 8-352; faint pushing to spine tips and offsetting to endleaves else a near-fine copy in the very good dust jacket slightly rubbed at tips and sun bleached to spine. First edition. Warner was given access to White's papers shortly after his death in 1964. Her biography was regarded by the New York Times as """"a small masterpiece which may well be read long after the writings of its subject have been forgotten.""sold with Two autograph letters signed by Townsend addressed to a Mr John da Silva. The first dated 20th October 1964 is a letter in which she having been asked to write a biography of T. H. White reaches out to Mr da Silva a former school pupil of the great Arthurian writer. ""I should be extremely grateful to have your impressions of him at this stage in his career"" she writes. ""He wrote in his various books about all his activities - except teaching. he must have been a remarkable and stimulating teacher."" The reply from da Silva comes just over a month letter in the form of two typed sheets recounting his memories of being at school in the master's company. ""I remember him with great affection"" the letter begins before recounting many different experiences during the inter-war years between 1934-5. ""We were Tim's original 'tutees'. Because the group was so small lessons with him used to take place in his study a shady room overlooking the Orangery at Stowe with two big square stuffed chairs side by side facing the fireplace book shelves around the room and pipes and tobacco I seem to remember in considerable profusion on the tables. Tim was very like the self-portrait of Van Gogh wearing a hat."" He goes on: ""Tim was then I suppose in his late twenties and a fairy Bohemian figure even by Stowe standards which were not noticeably strict. He had an old open black Bentley and a red setter and among the boys enjoyed a reputation exciting faintly discreditable and much envied on the strength of 'Loved Helen' and 'They Winter Abroad' copies of which were eagerly sought after."" da Silva goes on to describe two incidences where White was involved in car accidents. In the first he drove through the front wall of a cottage; in the other da Silva was the one driving and after sharing several drinks in a nearby pub ""I inexpertly skidded on the cattle grid. the ensuing bump threw him White forward so he hit his head on the knob of the windscreen wiper cutting himself slightly. He made a terrible fuss about it."" Warner's response to these elucidations is also included. Dated in the early January of the following year she writes: ""I was greatly interested in your story of the cattle grid. It is typical of him. in major misfortunes he could be heroic - though not invariably but what authentic character is consistent"" An illuminating series of letters together with the biography of this important writer by an English novelist who herself was equally well regarded. hardcover
