Prima edizione
Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Jacket As Issued. First Paperback Printing. This 96-page, paperback offering in VG condition is Peepholes on Life: 44 Fun Looks at the Serious Side of Life by Robert Haslam, published by Light and Life Press in 1977. Not an ex-library copy, thisbook is practically like new but for some rattiness/chewed up portions on the main title page, and the Dedication page immediately following it, both areas down at bottom left edge, measuring roughly 1/2" wide X 2 1/2" high(area on Dedication page much smaller). From author's Introduction, "The chapters of this book are slices of life. Actually, we learn as much from experience as we do from instruction. What we are taught has to become enmeshed among the strands of daily experience and become a part of the fabric of our lives. The more we are aware of what is happening in our lives, the more we will profit from living. The reader will catch on fast that this book relates living to learning, experience to concepts of truth". Presented in 44 brief "slices", the author offers insights and teachings from some of what he has experienced during his own life, with titles such as "Ladder Day Saints", "Pair O' Dice Lost", "How To Convert Idle Worshipers", "Brighten the Coroner", "Pray Without Creasing", and "Growing Old Gratefully". This is one pretty funny man whose musings you may enjoy, and gain some needed help at the selfsame time. Thank you!.

Manoscritto / Collezionismo cartaceo Copia autografata
Single-sided manuscript letter in ink on "Buffalo Bill's Wild West" gilt-embossed headed notepaper, signed as 'Cody' by William F. Cody, aka "Buffalo Bill", to the foot. Dated May 30th 1908. The letter has a clipped corner to the top right, a couple of minor marks, a few old folds and some very faint traces of adhesive to the verso where once likely laid in an album, otherwise it is in very good condition. "Buck up, never say die" - a superb letter between two of the greatest figures of the American Old West. William F. Cody (1846-1917), known around the world as "Buffalo Bill", became a rider for the legendary Pony Express at the age of fifteen, later serving for the Union during the American Civil War and then as a civilian scout for the US Army during the Indian Wars, receiving the Medal of Honor in 1872. From his early twenties his fame grew and he began to take part in popular 'Wild West' variety shows up and down the country. In 1883, Cody founded his own show - "Buffalo Bill's Wild West" - a circus-like touring attraction which incorporated parades, feats of skill and staged races performed by a variety of 'horse-culture' groups including cowboys, American Indians, the US military and performers from all over the world, with Turks, gauchos, Arabs, Mongols and Georgians all displaying their distinctive horses and colourful costumes. Many notable historical Old West figures also participated, including Calamity Jane, Annie Oakley and Chief Sitting Bull, who appeared with a band of twenty of his braves. From 1887, Cody began touring throughout Europe to great acclaim, notably performing for Queen Victoria and Pope Leo XIII. In the present letter, he writes to Robert Haslam (1840-1912), aka "Pony Bob", reaching out with an encouraging reaffirmation of friendship, the pair of them now being in their later years: "How are you, I want / to keep in touch with the / few left of the Old Pony Riders. There is no use in / allowing ourselves to feel / we are growing old - / Buck up, never say die". Haslam, born in London, came to the US as teenager and began working for the Pony Express soon after his arrival, ultimately becoming one of the most famous of its riders, perhaps second only to Cody himself. He is credited with having made the longest round trip of the Pony Express, totalling 380 miles, however, his most celebrated ride came in 1861 when he rode 120 miles in 8 hours and 20 minutes while wounded, to carry the message of Abraham Lincoln's Inaugural Address. Cody and Haslam remained firm friends beyond their Pony Express days, collaborating on a variety of other endeavours, most notably accompanying each other on a diplomatic mission to negotiate the surrender of Sitting Bull in December 1890. A rare and evocative letter from one of the most iconic cultural figures of nineteenth-century America. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request.
