A propos de cet article

"The Days Before Yesterday", an Autobiographical Memoir by Lord Frederic Hamilton (Lord Frederic Spencer Hamilton) was originally published in 1920, but owing to its immense popularity it remained in print and was issued numerous times. This is the 1943 Twenty-Seventh Edition. Lord Frederic was the sixth son of James Hamilton, 1st Duke of Abercom and Lady Louisa Jane Russell. He was a conservative member of Parliament and also served in the Diplomatic Service. This book is a companion volume to "Here, There and Everywhere", and "The Vanished Pomps of Yesterday". Each of which was well received by the reading public. He was also one time editor of "Pall Mall Magazine". Lord Frederic is now chiefly remembered as the individual who introduced down-hill skiing to Canada. SERIES : Black Jacket Books TITLE : The Days Before Yesterday AUTHOR : Lord Frederic Hamilton (Lord Frederick Spencer Hamilton, 1856 - 1928) IMPRINT : Hodder and Stoughton PLACE : St. Paul's House, London DATE : (January 1943) EDITION : 27th Edition STATUS : OP - OUT OF PRINT SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES : Contains a hand-written poem inked on a separate sheet of paper, folded once and laid-in (at one time the sheet had been folded a second time, that crease still remaining). This seems to be in the same hand that wrote the gift inscription, S. G. Wilson. [ this sheet measures approx. 5" x 8" ] PHYSICAL DETAILS : Trade hardcover; contains an index; 320 pages; 4 3/8" x 6 3/4"; semi-flexible, textured, pale-Green cloth-covered boards, with black lettering on spine. Boards have been given a geometrical decorative embellishment in blind. (color of boards mostly faded away) Sans dust-jacket. CONDITION -- GOOD PLUS -- This is a previously owned book which remains a bit worn, bit still clean and serviceable, with the following particulars noted : EXTERIOR : Spine extremities compressed; spine lettering quite clear; considerable surface rub - color faded, especially about edges and on spine; scuffing and spotting to front board; board edges display small denting; corner tips softly bumped; text-block edges toned, and with a touch of foxing - else clean BINDING : The book has obviously been read, possibly more than once, but no leaves are detached or loose, and the whole of the text-block, while not as tight as when issued, remains solid. INTERIOR : Text is clean and unmarked throughout. The previous owner's armorial bookplate is affixed to the front paste-down - the same has written in ink a joint marital signature, dated 1988 on the front flyleaf. Above this is an older gift inscription dated 1944 : "To F. O. Osborn / With Christmas greetings / and best wishes for the / New Year. / From S. G. Wilson/ 1944" Above this, and surely connected to the gift inscription, is a small Christmas sticker affixed to the top fore-edge corner. There is also laid in what seems to be an original paraphrasing of a biblical-like verse, written in the same hand as the inscription :: "Fret not thyself for troubles of the morrow But thankful be for blessings of today And pray that thee may blessed be tomorrow Thus shalt thou go with peace upon thy way." [There is a second verse but partially illegible] We have placed this back with the book, folded as found, and contained in a protective mylar envelope. …
