Original patterned boards with gilt title lettering to spine; cream dust jacket with blue border; pp. viii 251 1; bookplate of owner to front pastedown; minimal foxing to preliminaries and all edges; slight toning to dust jacket spine; otherwise very good. First edition signed by the author on title page.Sylvia Townsend Warner contemporary of the likes of Djuna Barnes contributed short stories to The New Yorker for 40 years and would go onto write six novels each subscribing to her mantra that all should depict; ""the oddness of the world and the surprisingness of mankind"". Simultaneous to being a highly acclaimed author she was also a talented translator responsible for renditions of Proust's Contre Saint-Beuve into English as well as a noted biography of the novelist T.H. White and alongside her life partner the poet Valentine Ackland she would become known as ""The Leading Communist of Wessex"". This miniature critique of Christian evangelism and the acts of the British empire seem eerily contemporary and Mr. Fortune's Maggot tells the tale of a banker who decides to become a missionary on an entirely remote island in the South Pacific making one very meaningful convert.Although her work was re-established in the 70's through the efforts of the seminal feminist press Virago she remains a mysterious creative mind making this signed first edition scarce. hardcover

A scarce first edition of this interesting and in-depth discussion into the history of the city of Bath in England illustrated throughout including with one folding map. The first edition of this work. A scarce work. Illustrated with a frontispiece one folding map and twelve plates. Collated from Copac from a copy held at Oxford University bound without one plate. Bound without pages 101-123 of the appendix. With a half-title. This work is a quarto. Collated incomplete bound without one black and pages 101-123 of the appendix. An interesting and in-depth history of the city of Bath in England. The city was a popular social hub at the time of this publication. The hot springs and waters of the Roman Baths in the city centre were a source of popularity with people visiting the city to taste the waters which had supposed healing properties. Bath is also rich with ancient Roman and Saxon history the city being names Aquae Sulis in the Roman era. both of which are discussed in detail in this work. However the author also discussed the civil history and the military history of the city and offers a concise history of the Bath Abbey alongside chapters on the public baths the mineralogy and botany of the city and the various amusements that could be found in Bath at the turn of the nineteenth century. The work was dedicated to George IV when he was the Prince of Wales. Written by Richard Warner an antiquary who specialised in topography. He was also a clergyman and came to bath as a minister at All Saints in 1794. His move to Bath inspired his interest in the Roman history and antiquity of the city. It seems that Warner had a slightly contentious view of the society of Bath believing that the city was disintegrating into corruption and relaxation. A scarce first edition of Richard Warner's illustrated history of Bath. In a half morocco binding with marbled paper to the boards. Externally generally smart. Light rubbing to the boards and spine. Paper to the boards is lifting to the tail. Internally firmly bound. Pages are lightly age-toned and clean. Very Good R. Cruttwell hardcover
