Description:
Washington (D.C.): Department of the Interior, United States Geological Survey., 1909. 1st Edition . Printed Grey issue papers. Good. 22.5 Cms x 29 Cms. 183 pp., num.black & white photoplates & maps ex-pagination+1 unf.col.geological map. Internally clean, tight & unmarked but a few nicks to outer edges from fr. endpaper through to leaf 7/8 (will repair these with archival mending tissue on order) and a few bottom outer corners curled/dogged; ex-Royal Colonial Institute with their very faint oval stamp, dated 1910, top t.p. and even more faintly top fr. cover, which also has an ink lib.number at top, no other library markings. Covers are clean but sp.very worn exposing gatherings at top & bottom, outer edge fr. cover nicked, and creased across bottom corner, back cover similar, but less severe. (Again, will try to repair on order.) Apparently scarce and surely of interest for anyone researching impact of global warming on Alaska.

London: Sidgwick and Jackson for the Yorkshire Dialect Society, 1917. 2nd Ed. (1st-1916) . Grey printed Cloth. Good-VG/No Jacket. 13 Cm X 19 Cm. xlii+136; faint tanning to endpapers, but initially extensive brown flecking reducing through to c. p.xxxii and resuming, though lightly, c. p.117; very faint pencil underlining and marginalia throughout Introduction mostly noting proper names - this is genuinely too faint to really be a problem and easily erased in any case, 1919-dated sig. top frotn endpaper. This 2nd ed. has some corrections of attribution and word meanings detailed in a Preface to the Second Edition. What is perhaps touching and worth noting is that the dedication reads 'To the Yorkshiremen Serving their Country in Trench or on Battleship I respectfully dedicate this collection of Songs from the Homeland'. This 2nd ed. appears to be scarcer than the 1st and is presumably to be prefered due to corrections. Note: quoted shipping rates are calculated for 500-700 gram net weight, cost…

London: George Allen & Unwin, 1936. 2nd Impression (1st-1921) . Black Cloth. Fine- for age/No Jacket. 14 Cms x 21 Cms. 272 pp.; only visible flaws are some patches of surface sheen loss to covers when held at an angle to the light, v.slight hint of outward bowing top front cover and trace of dust to top edge, none of this reducing it much below Fine in my judgement. A controversial work published in the context opf psychoanalytic controversies about childhood sexuality etc., the authour's identity remains controversial although is commonly claimed to be Grete Lainer, an associate of pioneer psychoanalyst Hermine Hug-Helmuth (who was murdered, but that's another story...).
