1906Best.-Nr. ST20132London: Printed by the Edinboro Press for the Grolier Society 1906-07. Edition magnifique letter J of 26 lettered sets. 260 x 180 mm. 10 1/4 x 7". Nine volumes volume II bound without two-page Appendix IV Jackson A. V. Williams. SPLENDID CONTEMPORARY EMERALD GREEN MOROCCO lavishly gilt and with delicate scarlet morocco inlays forming a repeating peacock feather motif surrounded by Art Nouveau twining vines all within a gilt French fillet spine similarly decorated raised bands BROWN MOROCCO DOUBLURES with a central inlaid and gilt triple elephant motif within a wide green morocco frame adorned by gilt peacock feathers with indigo morocco inlays unusually elaborate floral silk flyleaves top edge gilt other edges untrimmed. WITH 153 PLATES including 72 photographic reproductions on shiny paper and 81 plates in three states with printed tissue guards: one hand colored; one tipped on in black & white; and one sepia; plus numerous black & white illustrations 68 of these being full-page; and one double-page map. Spines uniformly sunned to a light tan but bindings otherwise lustrous and virtually unworn; one tissue guard stuck to the plate facing p. 150 in volume IV a few corner creases other trivial imperfections but very clean and fresh with some leaves still unopened. This nine-volume history of India features a luxurious binding with sparkling gilt and vibrant morocco inlays forming motifs that perfectly suit its contents. Intended to present the history of India from the "earliest times" through the British Raj this profusely illustrated work was written by some of the most prominent Victorian scholars on the subject and edited by an esteemed professor of Indo-Iranian languages at Columbia University. Volume I "From the earliest times to the sixth century B.C." is the work of native Calcutta historian Romesh Chunder Dutt 1848-1909 author of major works on the cultural and economic history of the country. Volume II "From the sixth century B.C. to the Mohammedan conquest" is the contribution of Irish antiquarian Vincent Arthur Smith 1848-1920 who wrote the "Oxford History of India" which DNB says "was to exert a vast influence over generations of students." Volumes III and IV "Medieval India from the Mohammedan conquest to the reign of Akbar the Great" and "From the reign of Akbar the Great to the fall of the Moghul empire" come from British orientalist and numismatics expert Stanley Lane-Poole 1854-1931 praised by DNB as "a versatile writer able to produce both academic reference works . . . and popular versions of his biographies and introductions to historical subjects." Volumes V-VIII were written by former administrators of the Raj who had taken up Indian history as an avocation. Volume V "The Mohammedan period as described by its own historians" was prepared by editors from earlier works by Sir Henry Miers Elliot 1808-53. Volumes VI and VII "From the first European settlements to the founding of the English East India Company" and "The European struggle for Indian supremacy in the seventeenth century" were penned by Sir William Wilson Hunter 1840-1900 who spent 25 years in the Indian Civil Service before retiring to write about the history of colonialism in India. The penultimate volume "From the close of the seventeenth century to the present time" was written by someone who actually lived key parts of that history Sir Alfred Comyn Lyall 1835-1911 survivor and hero of the Indian Mutiny lieutenant-governor of the North-Western Provinces and longtime member of the Council on India. In the final volume editor Abraham Valentine Williams Jackson 1862-1937 compiles "Historic accounts of India by foreign travellers classic oriental and occidental." All volumes are copiously illustrated with photo plates of life in Victorian India many taken from Jackson’s own photographs and with examples of Indian art architecture and crafts. Though unsigned the spectacular bindings were clearly the work of a master possibly Sangorski & Sutcliffe. The quality of materials skill of finishing and elaborate motifs are consistent with those produced by that outstanding bindery or another of equal skill and taste. While the work occurs with some regularity on the market it is extremely rare in such a beautiful decorative dress as seen here. Printed by the Edinboro Press for the Grolier Society unknown books

SHORT DESCRIPTION Year: 1923 nEdition: Early edition nPublisher: His Majesty’s Stationery Office DESCRIPTION Frederick James Moberly. n nHistory of the Great War Based on Official Documents. The Campaign in Mesopotamia 1914–1918. nVol. I 1923; Vol. II 1924; Vol. III 1925. n nLondon: His Majesty’s Stationery Office. n nThree volumes original publisher’s bindings. nTitle pages present as issued. nTypical light foxing; sound examples. STORY The official British government history of the Mesopotamian theatre of the First World War. Compiled from military archives at the request of the Government of India these volumes document strategy logistics intelligence failures command disputes and the long struggle for control of Baghdad and the surrounding regions. Unlike memoir literature this is the institutional memory of empire: maps orders casualty analysis and political consequences presented with bureaucratic precision. These volumes became foundational references for later military historians and remain crucial to understanding Britain’s eastern war effort. Sets are increasingly difficult to assemble intact. WHY THIS MATTERS Official histories were printed in relatively small numbers for libraries officers and administrators not the trade. Complete runs survive far less often than individual volumes. Interest in imperial campaigns Middle Eastern military history and the documentary basis of state decision-making continues to grow. For collectors building serious WWI shelves this is core material.
