New York; Harper & Brothers; MCMXXIV [1924]. ***Dictated by Clemens over several years with the stipulation that it not be published until after his death (he originally said until he had been dead at least a hundred years!). As might be expected of anything which Mark Twain wrote, this autobiography is unlike any other ever written--as unconventional and unorthodox as its great author. Always, when the time came for him to go on with the dictation, he chose as his subject whatever was most interesting to him at the moment, regardless of chronological order. For he believed that a man s thoughts, not his outward acts are his true history, which alone reveal him completely. The resulting book is a stream of table-talk: anecdotes, humorous and serious; reminiscences of his mother, his daughter Susy, his boyhood days in Missouri; chronicles of his friendships with all manner of men, from General Grant and President Cleveland to his Irish coachman and the unfamed intimates of his vagabond youth; bold expressions of opinion on every sort of topic--all are here, full of the vigor and the humanity of their author, and forming an inexhaustible mine of entertainment, amusement, and delight. --publisher s blurb. #18963 A$295.00

Dublin; Printed for H. Chamberlaine [etc.]; ***Beddie 1546; Forbes 72. Although the title refers to maps and charts and there is at the end of the preliminaries to the first volume a two-page list of 26 charts and views with directions for their placement throughout the three volumes, the text volumes contain only the frontispiece to Vol. I and this is not listed. The charts and views were never present in these text volumes and this is clearly one of the forms in which the book was issued -- we have handled a similar set (without Atlas) before. Beddie notes that the Baillieu Library copy is similar, having only the portrait frontispiece. This set carries the bookplate of John B. Gilmore on the front pastedown of all three text volumes and his contemporary inscription dated Boghead Janry. 1st The Atlas in similar, but not quite matching, contemporary quarter calf, with marbled sides, carries the bookplate of David Rochfort and a contemporary manuscript list of the charts and views contained therein. The individual charts carry corresponding manuscript numbers (1-25). The printed numbers (roman numerals) on the charts and the directions for placing them (in the text volumes) generally correspond with the list printed in text Volume I, but there are several discrepancies and internal inconsistencies (to the Atlas). Plate XVI, Views on the West coast of North America, to the Westward of Cook s River, is lacking; Plate II is numbered IV (as is also Plate IV); Plate XIX is numbered XVI and there is no plate numbered XIX. While clearly contemporary and intended to accompany the text volumes, the Atlas was almost certainly matched to this set at a later date and there is no indication the missing chart was ever present. #20444 A$

London; George Virtue; ***This book was commenced by the Findens and first published in 1838 with a much smaller complement of plates. It is consequently usually known as Finden s Ports and Harbours: the title given on the additional engraved title-pages is Finden s Views of the Ports, Harbours & Watering Places of Great Britain, Continued by W. H. Bartlett. The plates conform exactly to the lists given in the front of each volume, although a few plates are misplaced and all are delicately and beautifully hand-coloured. The book has been expertly oversewn and neatly recased in its original contemporary binding (which would probably have employed a gutta percha perfect binding - notorious for perishing), but there is no sign of any cleaning or washing. We can find no historical record of coloured copies, so this set has since been coloured, presumably at the time of sewing, some time in the twentieth century. The colouring is carefully and beautifully executed to a high standard and makes for a most attractive book. #15960 A$

A very few copies were issued with the date 1826; these are of the greatest rarity. The work is of great importance: Phillip Parker King (the son of Governor Philip Gidley King) was born at Norfolk Island, and became one of Britain s leading hydrographers. His work considerably furthered the geographical knowledge of the Australian coasts. His charts were very accurate and his extensions and additions to those of Flinders on the Northern and Western coasts of Australia were for many years in practical use by the Admiralty (well into the twentieth century).

The voyage aroused intense interest but the ships were not heard of after leaving Botany Bay in 1788 and their fate was not positively determined until Peter Dillon discovered the wrecks at Vanikoro over 30 years later. #12603 A$
