New York: Charles Scribner's, 1903. RARE COPY. This is Number 26 of only 50 copies of this Edition for sale outwith Great Britain. Signed John Willcock. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. Archibald Campbell, 1st Marquess of Argyll, 8th Earl of Argyll, chief of Clan Campbell, (March 1607 - 27 May 1661) was a Scottish nobleman, politician, and peer. The de facto head of Scotland's government during most of the conflict of the 1640s and 50s known as the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, he was a major figure in the Covenanter movement that fought for the maintenance of the Presbyterian religion against the Stuart monarchy's attempts to impose episcopacy. He is often remembered as the principal opponent of the royalist general James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose. Title in red and black; title vignette. xxiii, 396 p. Appendices: I. Particulars of family history. II. Ballads connected with the Marquess of Agryll. III. Letters from members of the Argyll family. IV. A letter from the Marquess of Argyll in 1642. V. A further examination of the charge against the Marquess of Agryll in 'Deeds of Montrose' (Murdoch and Simpson), p. 277. VI. The famous six letters sent by Monck to secure Argyll's condemnation. VII. A contemporary broad-sheet describing the battle of Philiphaugh. An excellent copy in the original gilt decorated boards. Light fade to spine, book tight and clean, with superior quality pages which are uncut at edges. . Hard Cover. Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

This is a wartime reprint of extracts from two Churchill speeches delivered in the House of Commons on 4 May 1909 and at King's Theatre, Edinburgh, 17 July 1909. This pamphlet was first published as "The Menace of Land Monopoly" by the Henry George foundation in 1941. In 1942 the pamphlet was retitled and republished as "On Human Rights".

The pamphlet measures 7.125 inches tall x 4.75 inches wide. It is sixteen pages in length with stapled cream colored card wraps. The front cover bears a decidedly resolute head and shoulders image of Churchill. This copy is crisp and bright.…

Summary: "The Bone People, first published in 1984 by Spiral, New Zealand. About this book: The Bone People is an unusual story of love. It is unusual in the telling, the subject matter, and the form of love that the story depicts. This is in no way a romance; it is filled with violence, fear, and twisted emotions. At the story's core, however, are three people who struggle very hard to figure out what love is and how to find it. Hulme won New Zealand's Pegasus Prize for Literature (1984) for The Bone People. Then the book went on to win the prestigious Booker Prize (1985).
