1907réf. 17839London & New York: Blackie & Caldwell 1907. Near fine. First edition American issue printed on dark green paper that contrasts vividly with the tipped-in color plates in Harrison's distinctive style. Given the clear Pre-Raphaelite characteristics in her work it is unsurprising to note that she was the first woman to be a commercial illustrator for the work of Christina Rossetti - indeed it was in part due to the success of RHYME OF A RUN that the Glaswegian publisher Blackie asked her to take on a major project. One of Harrison's particular touches is the heavy black outlines around characters giving her Art Nouveau-influenced illustrations an effect not unlike stained glass. It is thanks to the work of book collector Mary Rosalind Jacobs that Florence Harrison was identified only in the 21st century as the Australian-born Florence Susan Harrison not the English artist Emma Florence Harrison. A beautiful copy of Harrison's second book scarce in the American issue and in this condition. 9'' x 11.25''. Original green pictorial cloth gilt. Green patterned endpapers. Printed on heavy dark green paper. Illustrated by Harrison with elaborately ornamented title page lettered in red 21 tipped-in color plates 10 full-page black-and-white designs and many black-and-white vignettes. A bit of the creasing to some plates as in virtually all copies due to a finishing fault with the publisher. Faint spotting to rear board and very minor rubbing to extremities.

réf. 30556London: Harrison. 1860. First revised edition. First revised edition. Association copy inscribed by Henry Bonham Carter Florence Nightingale's first cousin and secretary for the Nightingale Fund. Original textured brown cloth with gilt titles to the spine and blindstamped decorative borders to the upper and lower boards. A good entirely unsophisticated copy the binding fragile as usual with wear to the corners and splitting with exposed webbing to the spine the spine holding. The contents with Bonham Carter's presentation gift inscription to the half title toning to the closed text-block edge and some isolated foxing spots to the early pages are otherwise clean throughout. A nice copy with a fantastic association. Inscribed in black ink on the half title "Henrietta Cooling / from / Henry Bonham Carter / July 1915". Henry Bonham Carter 1827-1921 was a barrister who was the first cousin lifelong friend and adviser of Florence Nightingale 1820-1910. He acted as the secretary to the Florence Nightingale Fund and Training School for Nurses between 1861 and 1914 and was involved with the running of various hospitals and nursing-based initiatives such as St. Thomas's Hospital where Nightingale established her Training School the Metropolitan Nursing Association and the Queen Victoria Jubilee Institute of Nursing. Nightingale and Bonham Carter maintained a long-standing correspondence in which they advised and supported each other in their endeavours in nursing development. Nightingale bequeathed her papers and letters to him upon her death which he organised and provided to Sir Edward Cook to aid in the writing of 'The Life of Florence Nightingale' the first Nightingale biography. The Florence Nightingale Fund was safeguarded by the Bonham Carter family for over a hundred years with Henry Bonham Carter's great granddaughter the actress Helena Bonham Carter frequently serving as an appeal ambassador before merging with the Florence Nightingale Foundation in 2023. An appealing association copy of Nightingale's groundbreaking text on nursing completed soon after her return from Crimea. The book was intended not as handbook on how to become a nurse but rather to impart practical knowledge to anybody who may have to care for a person in ill-health. Nevertheless the book's clear advice on hygiene ventilation diet and sickroom management was remarkably timely and effective in a period when germ theory was still a contested concept and its tenets formed the backbone of early modern nursing education. Much of the guidance is timeless and universal and it remains a classic text to this day. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request.
