London: Humphrey Milford (Oxford University Press), 1915. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Elephant Folio - over 15" - 23" tall. FIRST PRINTING of the RARE First Edition -- "limited to 600 copies, of which 350 only are for sale". Ex-library book bound in sturdy brown buckram with gilt lettering spine, pages and plates not trimmed, library bookplate on front pastedown, library perforated blindstamp on title page, no library marks or stamps on any plates, no writing or underlining, complete with all pages and plates, no foxing, solid binding. Some diffuse grubbiness on title page and in margins of a couple other pages (not heavy or obstructing). I am not certain, but I suspect this book was issued originally with all pages & plates loose. Each page in this example has been meticulously hinged such that all pages/plates open easily without bending or stressing the page paper. This is a very large book that weighs almost 7 pounds and measures 18.5 inches tall x 15.8 inches (470mm tall x 402mm). The book has 28 pages of introductory text, 15 full page plates in color, 27 full page plates in monochrome, and 1 collotype plate. Generally nice condition. PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK BEING OFFERED.

Descripción:
Indianapolis: Dog Ear Publishing, January 2013. Trade Paperback. Fine. Slight reading wear to corners, otherwise pristine. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. Not damaged. Suitable for gifting. 163 pages. The 25 authors of this book were volunteers in the first Peace Corps rural community development project in Africa: Sierra Leone, 1965-67. They are also the first group to tell a collective story of Peace Corps volunteers, anywhere. The Peace Corps was in its infancy then, and memories of John Kennedy were strong among the young volunteers. Sierra Leone was also in its infancy in the first few years after independence, before military coups and tribal warfare became common. The authors forthrightly recount their feelings of loneliness and isolation, and their frightening experiences with secret societies and witchcraft, but their uniquely optimistic "can-do" American attitude brought most through a great life experience.

London: Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme & Brown, 1823. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. pp: [viii]ix-xii [1]2-544. FIRST EDITION. Bound in brown half-leather over marbled boards, title in gilt within a red title piece. The first edition of the author's first book. William Wilson (1772-1849) inherited a substantial sum from an uncle, and decided to indulge his passion for travel. He travelled throughout Europe and The Middle East and wrote a series of books. This was his first, and it was the most popular, going through several editions. This is a good copy as all plates, including the frontispiece, have been excised. The boards show moderate wear, heavier at the spine ends. The front hinge is cracked. The text block is mainly clean with a few marks of unknown origin.
