B/w vignette illustrations, new and critical introduction by James Wentworth Day. Red cloth, spine titled in gilt. Small abrasion to end-paper but good-plus in used dust-wrapper. The angling section was originally published in the eighth edition of the Encylopaedia Britannica but, in the author's own words, "We think the butt-end is not much the worse for wear, - we have strengthened the mid-pieces, repaired the top, and given the whole a coat of varnish, hoping that in the hands of others, now more fit for the practice of the gentle art than we ourselves, it may prove a steady friend and true, whether in still or troubled waters." "The treatise on angling is much above the ordinary as a manual." (Westwood and Satchell). Wilson's un-named co-author, and author of "The Oakleigh shooting code." was A.K. Killmister. Killmister has contributed the shooting section of the book, which also originally appeared as the article, Shooting, in the Encyclopaedia Britannica. He states that since the article was published ".the "Oakleigh Shooting Code" has been withdrawn as a separate publication; but so much of it as was deemed worth preserving has been embodied in the treatise from the Encyclopaedia, which is now re-published, with large additions, in the following pages."

Angling - Introductory observations on the principles of the angler and his art; On the general structure and physiology of fishes; Of the angler's fishes in particular - their aspect, habits, and modes of capture; List of works on angling.

Cloth, 4to, 29 cm, vii, xv, 54 pp,70 plates. From the blurb - " Subtitled 'An Historical Survey of Dancing in Europe', the work here reprinted is a lavishly illustrated volume using con temporary prints and illustrations to supplement a full and detailed text. The work, essentially in two parts, examines the history of the dance within its "Social" and "Spectacular" contexts. "Social" comprises a concise history from the earliest Greek dances through to the development of Jazz. This is the dance in its purest and most absolute form in which it rested for its expression solely upon its own instinctive and peculiar methods unaided by any art other than that of music from which in the nature of things it can never be divorced. The "Spectacular" is a natural development of the former, being a consideration of the dance used in combination and partnership with other arts as one of the elements of a composite form of entertainment known variously as mummings, disguisings, revels, masquerades or masques, an art form which finds its ultimate expression in the ballet. The very nature of the subject matter prevents placing before the reader a continuous narrative or orderly series of documents but here contained within this reprint are an authoritative detailed text and excellent pictorial history which determine the facts and broader tendencies which have shaped the course of the Dance.
