1986ref. 49703Bordeaux William Blake and Co 1986 2 volumes in-8, brochs, couvertures illustres.Edition originale de cette passionnante correspondance qui tmoigne de la grande amiti qui liait Andr Lhote, Alain-Fournier et Jacques Rivire. A travers ces 210 lettres crites entre le 28 octobre 1907 et le 3 octobre 1924, on dcouvre les joies, les dceptions, les projets et les tracas de chacun. On remarquera en particulier parmi les 10 lettres d'Alain-Fournier crites en 1909, celle adresse Andr Lhote le 20 janvier 1909 dans laquelle l'crivain esquisse dj avec motion ce que sera son Grand Meaulnes : ... Dans mon livre il y aura bien d'autres ftes! dans les campagnes, les fermes et les jardins; bien d'autres promenades merveilleuses sous les pommiers de Pques; bien d'autres noces qui s'en iront en voiture, quand souffle le premier vent tide du printemps, gonflant la blouse des paysans et que midi sonne dans les villages...Le ton de la correspondance volue au fil des annes car la jeunesse insouciante disparat avec les proccupations professionnelles. Dans la dernire lettre adresse Andr Lhote le 26 juin 1914, Alain-Fournier crit: ... il faut nous rsigner maintenant que le temps est venu de raliser sans relche, ne nous crire que de brves lettres d'affaires amicales. Cela ne veut pas dire que rien soit chang dans l'affection trs fidle, trs dvoue, trs pleine de foi que je n'ai pas cess de vous porter... L'change pistolaire sera mme bris ds le dbut de la guerre: mobilis en 1914, Jacques Rivire est fait prisonnier le 24 aot, et Alain-Fournier disparat quelques semaines plus tard, le 22 septembre 1914. La correspondance s'interrompt le 18 juillet 1914, et il faut attendre le 13 aot 1917 pour qu'elle renaisse. 34 lettres sont alors changes, bien que les deux amis habitent le mme immeuble de la rue Boulard.Un des 100 premiers exemplaires sur papier Ingres d'Arches. Neufs, non coups.

This splendid Edwardian photo album documents the salmon fishing adventures and scenic excursions by the photographer through the pastoral Wye Valley just a few years before the outbreak of World War I. At the beginning of the 20th century the Wye River was considered to be one of the best rivers for salmon fishing in the United Kingdom outside of Scotland and this fishermen definitely enjoyed the beauty and catch to be found. These images capture a largely undeveloped and pastoral Symonds Yat and Wye Valley as it winds along the borders of Herfordshire Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire. Bowman has included images of side-trips along the River Monnow views of mills Llandogo the Hutsham Bridge Grosmont Castle Tintern Abbey the Devil’s Chimney at the Yat Wye Valley ruin of the Llancault Church the oldest house in Monmouth winter floods at the junction of the Monnow and the Wye Rivers winter rapids and more. Also included are scenes of salmon from the Wye the rod and reels used photos of fisherman casting into the Monnow River landing a salmon and even image of fisherman holding two large salmon while braced against a roadside hedge. The salmon fishery on the Wye held up through much of the 20th century before a precipitous decline in the 1980s and 1990s however due to extensive habitat improvement work carried out by the Wye & Usk Foundation to restore spring salmon runs the run has once again climbed but not to the levels of the early 20th century.
