London: for W. Mears,, 1727. Promoting viticulture in Britain First edition of this viticultural treatise, including the first detailed description in English of wine-making in Champagne, based on first-hand observation. The author supports the establishment of vineyards in Britain, opposing those who declare the climate too insalubrious, and provides a guide to the cultivation of the vine. The dedication is signed "S.J." but Blanche Henry tentatively attributes it to the botanical writer Richard Bradley (1688-1732), primarily as the publisher, Mears, was associated with a number of Bradley's books. The book is dedicated to Bradley's most munificent patron, James Brydges, first duke of Chandos, though it is therefore unclear why Bradley should adopt a pseudonym for it. The work was reissued as a second edition in 1732, with a cancel title page. Provenance: with the bookplate of William Gilstrap (1816-1896), son of the wine merchant Joseph Gilstrap (1785-1864); Gilstrap worked initially in the wine trade, but was soon attracted to malting, where he would partner with Thomas Earp to become the largest malter in Britain. Octavo (194 x 118 mm). Contemporary panelled calf, spine with red morocco label and gilt motifs to compartments, red speckled edges. Engraved frontispiece by H. Fletcher after R. Cooper, woodcut illustration on p. 83. Contemporary ownership signature to title page partly crossed through, armorial bookplate of William Gilstrap to front pastedown, pencilled markings to rear endpaper. Joints and extremities expertly repaired, tiny chip at head of front free endpaper and at foot of frontispiece, small wax stain to lower margin of the first gathering, thereafter contents clean. An excellent copy. Gabler G40200; Henrey II, p. 450 and III, 870; Kress 3727; ESTC T123772.

Description:
Cannes. 1966. NP. 1966. Quarto (285mm x 233mm). 20 typed sheets in French (rectos only), legibly hand-corrected throughout by Brassai in black ink. Housed in a black cloth album, with each sheet in a separate clear plastic file. In excellent condition, the final page a little creased and with minor loss to right-hand side, affecting one letter. Overall fresh and clean. ------ A superb unpublished and heavily corrected manuscript in French, in which Brassai recounts his visit to Picasso, a long-standing friend, at his home near Cannes. Brassai, who photographed much of Picasso's work in the 1940s, had published Conversations with Picasso in 1964, in which he created an intimate portrait of Picasso, covering their friendship and artistic collaboration, and recording each of their meetings with minute detail. Picasso said of the volume, "Read this book if you want to understand me." This account is written in a similar style, and during the course of the afternoon, Picasso speaks about his nostalgia… Read More

RARE FIRST EDITION OF ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS SEA TALES IN ALL OF MARITIME LITERATURE.
On their way to introduce the bread-fruit as a cash crop to the West Indies from the South Sea Island, "Bread-fruit Bligh" and eighteen of his crew were set adrift by Fletcher Christian, the master's mate of the "Bounty," and made a journey of about 4000 miles in an open boat before landing on the East Indian island of Timor. Several of the mutineers, who had settled on Pitcairn Island, were eventually captured and three were executed in England. "An extremely important book" (Hill, p. 27). Interestingly enough, Bligh was subjected to two further mutinies in his career, though only the last, in New South Wales, can… Read More
