“The Blue Poetry Book” was Andrew Lang's first and only “colored” book of poetry. It collects nearly 150 poems by masters such as Blake, Wordsworth, Scott, Longfellow, Burns, Byron, Shakespeare, Poe, Marlowe, Coleridge, Milton, Macaulay, among others. The poems are accompanied by 100 black and white illustrations by Henry J. Ford and Lancelot Speed.
Andrew Lang (1844 -1912) was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales and for his twelve “colored” fairy books, published between 1889 and 1910. Each volume is distinguished by its own color, beginning with “The Blue Fairy Book” (1889) and ending with “The Lilac Fairy Book” (1910). In all, 437 tales from a broad range of cultures and countries are presented. The series was immensely popular, helped by Lang's reputation in folklore, and by the packaging device of the uniform books. The series proved of great influence in children's literature, increasing the popularity of fairy tales over tales of real life.

Including the floor plan of an "Austin" motor caravan - a very early caravanette / camper van. Also two photographs of a motor caravan called "Aeroplane" - perhaps named for the wing-like extensions on the roof when pitched!

Caravanning & Camping Out by J. Harris Stone
The author was the founder of The CaravanClub, in 1907. It's a very readable book, and depicts the very earliest days of caravanning when they were towed by horses and only a few hundred people (if that) had one. These early caravans bore most resemblance to the romanticised images of gypsy caravans of the past, although some looked like cottages on wheels! It's a fascinating read, and there are plenty of pictures. It evokes a lot of nostalgia for a time when there were almost no cars on the road and caravans like this could meander about the countryside and stop anywhere.
The book is old enough that there is no date in anywhere, so I searched about the net to find out about it. Google was in fact unsuccessful - it came up with a few reference to the revised 1931 edition, and an American 1914 edition, but not the one I have. To the British Library! After a few searches there, I pinned it down. It's a first edition, 1913, published by Herbert Jenkins, London (the publisher I knew, but not the date). This is the only reference I've been able to find to this edition on the net. Given that the few references to the 1931 edition I've seen are quoting $70-90 and the 1914 American editions are quoting $100 - $250, I would imagine this one is significantly more valuable... It's in pretty good condition too (although, having said that, one edge of the spine cloth has split from opening it to take the pictures :( oops! It was pretty fragile).
The text itself is out of copyright, and can be read in full here.

I put together a small paperback photo essay of some of my favorite images and quotations I have been collecting in various notebooks. This is the first printing, and while I am very happy with it as is, I will be expanding it and eventually including some essays I am still working on.
This is ridiculously low priced on Blurb...

Souls Shot: Portraits of Victims of Gun Violence
ENJOYING - PORTRAIT OF SHARIF RASHEED WILLIAMS
batik painting on silk 20" x 30" 2017
From the artist:
Sharif Rasheed Williams was 32 in 2009. Before he was shot and killed, he was a "happy go lucky person", according to his mother Joanne Williams. he was outgoing and with a good heart and loved his children. He loved to travel and generally enjoy life. He was proud of his red Corvette and his blue razor pit bull dogs, Christian and Dior. He took his mom to a special Frankie Beverley concert for Mothers' Day. He worked hard and played hard.
In making this portrait I wanted to included the things that Sharif loved and enjoyed and try to make it fun and colorful, as it seems that is how he lived his short life. There are names of those left behind. As Joanne pointed out to me, killing one person wounds many others. The little boy in the piece is also Sharif, a sweetie with the same smile he took to adulthood. It was a challenge to pull this all together but I felt privileged to get to know, as best I could, this man in the photos. His name in the heart at the top is the tattoo his mother Joanne got after he was gone.
From Sharif's daughter Laniyah:
My dad Sharif was very outgoing, loving, and overprotective about his "pooh". He treated me like royalty, and anytime I needed him he was there in a heartbeat. Losing you had to be the worst thing that ever happened to me. Seven years definitely was not enough time with you and it left me mentally unstable. I remember getting the news. . . worst day of my life. I was just wishing it was a all a dream. Even until this day, I wish I could've just told him that I love him one last time. My last birthday spent with [him] was Dorney Park, I think. He got mad and we left early because nobody was listening. My dad treated me like the princess I am and you will forever be in my heart. I love you and I can't wait to see you again.
My father was a man who had smiles to brighten your days. He was patient and kind and the very best friend you could ever hope for. I can't tell you daddy, how many tears I've cried since the day I was told my dad had died. It seems so impossivle even though I know it's true, everything I see around me reminds me of you. I think of you most on your birthday, father's day, and my birthday. Happy some days, sad the other, but right now I can feel you in my heart and you are always on my mind. I just wish I could have said one last goodbye.

My husband, the best gift-giver EVER, gave me an inscribed, autographed, first edition copy of Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Julia's been my idol for ages and ages, so this was incredibly poignant to me.
There's a second birthday gift he gave me in here that you can't see, though--I took the photos with my new Nikon 35mm f1.8.
OMG! He hit a home run this year. Grand slam, outta the park.

The sequel to “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” (1865), “Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There” (1872) was published seven years later and is set some six months later than the earlier book. This time Alice enters a fantastic world by stepping through a mirror. “Through the Looking Glass” is not quite as popular as “Wonderland” but it does include celebrated verses such as “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter,” and episodes involving “Tweedledum and Tweedledee” and “Humpty Dumpty.” The book features fifty in-text illustrations by John Tenniel.

This is Mark Twain’s time travel novel. In it, Yankee engineer Hank Morgan from Connecticut is accidentally transported back in time to medieval England and the court of King Arthur. Hank fools the inhabitants of that time into thinking he is a magician—and soon uses his Yankee ingenuity and knowledge of modern technology to become a "magician" in earnest, stunning the English with such feats as demolition and fireworks. He attempts to modernize the society, but in the end he is unable to prevent the death of Arthur and a censure against him by the Catholic Church, which grows fearful of his power.
Twain wrote the book as a satire of romantic notions of chivalry after being inspired by a dream in which he was a knight himself, and severely inconvenienced by the weight and cumbersome nature of his armor. [Source: Wikipedia]
The story is accompanied by some 175 illustrations by Dan Beard. Hollywood put its own spin on the story with a 1949 musical comedy starring Bing Crosby, Rhonda Fleming, William Bendix and Sir Cedric Hardwicke.
