Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 240 pages : illustrations (some colour) ; 32 cm. Summary:This sumptuous volume, based on an exhibit at the Smithsonian's new Sackler Gallery, perceptively describes the Islamic art holdings of the late Parisian jeweler and pioneering collector of Asian art, Henri Vever. The legendary collection of Persian and Arabic miniatures was thought lost during the Nazi occupation of France. A series of serendipitous events, dramatically told here, led to its recent discovery in New York and its subsequent acquisition by the Smithsonian. The 77 paintings, all of which were originally illustrations for Islamic manuscripts, are reproduced in brilliant color. Despite their great devotion to Asian art, Vever and his fellow collectors, illiterate in Persian and Arabic, were unable to appreciate the cultural context from which this art emerged. The authors (Lowry is a curator at the Sackler Gallery and Nemazee is a curatorial assistant) have restored the texts to their illustrations, thus returning these small masterpieces to the context from which they were torn. For both the connoisseur and the newcomer, poems, stories and scriptural references will further enhance the enjoyment of the splendid book.".

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Rud, Andrea (book designer); (illustratore).

Includes a traditional three-hubbed spine, gilt page edges on all three sides, moire fabric front and rear endpapers, and a bound-into-the-volume matching gold satin ribbon page marker. Also includes an Introduction and Permissions. Profusely illustrated with color photographs. "With stories , artwork, and photographs from Zane Grey, Lynn Bogue Hunt, Ernest Hemingway, Patrick F. McManus, Art Wolfe, Edmund Oshaus, Archibald Rutledge, Robert Ruark, Gordon MacQuarrie, Havilah Babcock, William W. Headrick, Gustave Muss-Arnolt, Jimmy Carter, John Madson, and more." - from the Preliminary Page. "Tradition is what this book is about. The outdoors writers of the twentieth century speak here in a variety of voices about this tradition. Some are poetic, some are documentary, some are gripping, and some are introspective. But all provide a record of the times in which they lived, and, directly or indirectly, write fondly of the special connection to the land and to the game that drives humankind to hunt. The writers in 100 Years of Hunting include two former presidents of the United States, two winners of the Pulitzer Prize, one winner of the Nobel Prize, one of the most popular novelists of the twentieth century, several beloved outdoors writers made famous in the pages of Field & Stream, Sports Afield, and Outdoor Life, a Minnesota naturalist, a man who later in life became a successful fruit and vegetable farmer, and a geologist. It's really quite a mix. The challenge of choosing selections for a book like this lies in the inevitability of not being able to use some important voices. For fans of the work of prominent outdoors writers such as Jack O'Connor, Corey Ford, Rick Bass, Thomas McGuane, Aldo Leopold, Theodore Roosevelt, and others worthy of inclusion, we sincerely apologize. Of course, this isn't an anthology of words alone, but an illustrated collection that we hope will bring this century of hunting to life. We hope you will find this selection of color photographs, historical images, paintings, and vintage advertisements as remarkable and appealing as we do. Today actual days afield are greatly limited. But the experience rests in your soul year-round, waiting patiently for the season opener. Until those hallowed autumn days begin anew, we hope this collection will help feed your yearning for the hunt." - excerpt from the Introduction.

See Nicolas Barker's typically-elegant obituary of Williamson in the Independent. 2pp, 4to. The obituary of the recipient Andrew Block (1892-1987) in 'The Private Library' was subtitled 'the doyen of booksellers'; his business was established in 1911. On aged and worn paper; folded three times. Signed 'Hugh Williamson:' and addressed to 'Mr Block'. Thirty-one lines in a close, calligraphic hand. Having been 'particularly lucky' every time he has called on Block, and having acquired 'the 12mo Baskerville, the Pickering in Caslon's types and the plays printed by John Bell' on his last visit, he asks him to 'keep an eye open for one or two cheap items'. Before giving a list of books he 'particularly' needs, from the Aldine Press to Baskerville, he describes his interest 'in the development of roman and italic types, which means that most of the books I need were printed before the end of the 18th century. On the other hand, I can't really afford even a guinea for a book unless it's the kind of thing I could sell again for as much as I gave, in case of need. The result is that I'm willing to put up with bad condition in the binding, missing plates and text pages etc which might put off the "proper" collector.'.
