A propos de cet article

UNCOMMON - LIMITED TO ONLY 500 COPIES - IN VERY GOOD CONDITION : Quarter vellum, dark green upper boards with gilt motif, spine is vellum, with tone, with bright gilt titles. Ink inscription of a previous owner 1963 to ffep. Thick cut paper is excellent, very tight and clean throughout. Excellent copy. vi, 73 pages portrait; NOTE - Whitman did actually visit Canada late in his life, and wrote about his experiences of what was his only excursion outside the borders of the United States. These experiences did not, it is true, find their way in any substantial form into his poetry. His only literary record of the excursion was a brief account written for the London (Ontario) Advertiser, an account ultimately incorporated into Specimen Days (1893), and a series of rough notes edited after his death by William Sloane Kennedy as published here in Walt Whitman's Diary in Canada, with Extracts from Other of His Diaries and Literary Note-Books (1904). ' These Canadian writings have received a modicum of textual and biographical attention, but no one has seriously considered them in terms of their possible significance for Whitman's art. Neither the diary nor the newspaper article is, of course, a polished literary creation; yet as the editors of the New York University Press standard edition of Whitman's work have suggested by their exhaustively inclusive poliCies, Whitman is a writer whose every scrap of literary output repays careful scrutiny. { Edited from Project Muse }.…

Description de la boutique

I have collected books most of my life. My collection has reduced now to about 4,000 items. I list a few more as time goes by! It is difficult sometimes to allow old friends to move on. Of course, they can find fresh enthusiasm from their new owners. No matter how many items you handle, there's always excitement and interest. It is vital however that my items are described accurately and I would hope to offer good value. If you see something that you feel is 'too high' for your pocket, don't hesitate to make me an offer. I try to keep the postage costs down, and within the United Kingdom this will be free. Posting abroad will be competitive, and often I will not ask for additional amounts if this is viable. But weight of items is the deciding factor. I will add images to my descriptions, and I hope that the combination will help you to decide. Regardless, always double check or take time to contact me for further information, or merely just to clarify a point. Ask for more images. If I can reduce anything I will do so. If you purchase more than one item, then offering a decent discount is likely. If items are not as described or you have a valid problem with any item, then I am happy to make a full or partial refund. This will be in line with all Statutory guidelines e.g returning the book in the condition it was delivered, and do let me know as quickly as possible. If damage has occurred then try to provide images. Ring me on 01352-810931…
