Hardcover (Original Cloth). Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. In this short anthology, selected from Samuel Pepys's famous diary, passages are collected together by subject, providing a fresh look at some of the themes that run through the massive complete work. Robert and Linnet Latham's lively and skillful presentation allows the reader to become absorbed in a single topic without interruption, often providing new insight into Pepys's private and public life. We see Pepys the man of fashion, the booklover, the musician and theatre-goer, Pepys the husband and Pepys the public servant, at work and at leisure. From festivals such as Christmas and Twelfth Night, enjoyed with family and friends, to the great events such as the Fire and the Plague described so vividly in the Diary, Pepys's life and times are revealed in all their richness and variety. And for the first time, we can read as continuous narrative, some of the stories interwoven with daily events: the long . entangled saga of his affair with Deb Willet and the tale of the Dancing Master. For anyone unfamiliar with Pepys, this anthology will serve as a delightful introduction, while lovers of the Diary will take pleasure in rediscovering favourite passages. Robert Latham was Pepys Librarian at Magdalene College, Cambridge until his retirement in 1983. He is the Editor, with the late William Matthews, of the definitive 11 volume edition of The Diary of Samuel Pepys and the much acclaimed Shorter Pepys . Linnet Latham, his wife, worked with her husband during the compilation of the Index and Companion to the complete Diary and on The Shorter Pepys. Size: Octavo (standard book size). 287 pages.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Very minor edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped (£12.95), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall an excellent copy. Lavishly illustrated, 161pp. For nearly two hundred and fifty years that small village just over the border in south-west Scotland has captured the attention and imagination of journalists and romantics everywhere. Many has been the time when the nation held its breath and silently cheered-on a young couple racing to Gretna Green to marry, with an irate and outraged father in hot pursuit. Will love triumph? The stories of eloping lovers come from all walks of life, and from all parts of Britain, Europe and indeed the world. In 1782, Sarah Anne Child (mother of the egregious Lady Jersey, patroness of Almacks), the immensely wealthy heiress of Childs Bank, eloped with John Fane, Earl of Westmorland, with her furious parents close behind. Edward Gibbon Wakefield abducted fifteen-year-old Ellen Turner and huntsman John Peel married his 'bonny Mary White'. Chancellors, MPs, princes, artistocrats, the famous and the not-so-famous travelled to Gretna to plight their troth and defy convention and authority. There were charlatans and scoundrels, bigamists and outlandish characters, but nothing can obscure the true spirit of love and romance which has highlighted the village right through time to the present day. With a sparkling blend of fascinating history and heart-rending anecdotes, Olga Sinclair recreates the exciting and sometimes tragic stories of runaway romance that will delight lovers the world over.
