In den WarenkorbHardback. Zustand: Good. Imagine London before television, before motorways, before air travel became commonplace, before anyone had heard of social media, streaming services, influencers, or customer loyalty cards. Now imagine seeing that city through the eyes of a child. That is precisely what A Child?s Guide to London offers,… and the result is a charming, fascinating, and occasionally bewildering journey into a capital city that was both familiar and utterly different from the one we know today. Written by A. A. Methley and published by Methuen in 1926, this delightful guide was intended to introduce young readers to the wonders of London. Rather than treating the city as a place of traffic jams and expensive coffee, it presents London as an enormous adventure waiting to be explored. Palaces, churches, monuments, parks, historic buildings, and famous landmarks are all explained with the assumption that the reader is curious, intelligent, and perhaps capable of becoming lost if left unsupervised for too long. One of the great pleasures of books like this is that they preserve not just information but perspective. The London described here was contemporary, not historical. For the original reader, Nelson?s Column was not a heritage attraction but simply part of the city they lived in. The Tower of London was already ancient, but the modern world had not yet arrived to surround it with souvenir shops, mobile phones, and tourists photographing their lunches. Reading it today is rather like discovering a postcard from another civilisation. The buildings may still exist, many of the streets remain where they always were, but the assumptions, priorities, and pace of life belong to a very different age. It is a reminder that London in 1926 was not black-and-white history but a living city full of people who considered themselves thoroughly modern. This particular copy possesses an additional distinction. Having been printed in 1926, it has now reached the remarkable age of one hundred years. When this book first appeared, the General Strike had only just occurred, George V was on the throne, and the notion that the book would still be changing hands a century later would have seemed highly improbable. Yet here it is, cheerfully proving the durability of both paper and curiosity. Condition is Good. The book has survived its first century admirably, remaining sound, readable, and considerably more informative than many modern travel guides that assume every problem can be solved by consulting a smartphone. The pages retain all the charm of a period when books were expected to educate, entertain, and occasionally improve the reader. Ideal for collectors of children?s books, London enthusiasts, social historians, and anyone who enjoys peering through a small window into everyday life a century ago. Whether you are interested in the city itself or simply fascinated by how previous generations viewed the world around them, A Child?s Guide to London is an engaging and unexpectedly evocative companion. As sold by Crappy Old Books: because not every book can claim to have spent a hundred years waiting patiently for its next reader.

Octavo, pp. [i-iv] v [vi] [1] 2-310 [311: blank] [312: printer's imprint] + 8-page catalogue dated "Spring 1913" + 30-page catalogue dated "July 1912" inserted at rear. Original decorated t…eal cloth, front and spine panels stamped in gold, bottom edge untrimmed. Damp staining to rear cover, else a fine copy. #1487. $45. Twelve short stories set in Egypt among British travelers and tourists. Commercial fiction of a sentimental variety -- love stories flavored here and there with the criminal or fantastic. In "Faringdon's Find" an amateur archaeologist takes a ring from a tomb -- with unpleasant supernatural results -- until he returns it. In "The Amethyst Necklace," a young English woman who is normally the soul of propriety is possessed by the soul of the vengeful Egyptian beauty who originally owned it. Her engagement is threatened until the necklace is thrown into the Nile. The general point of the stories is the danger of the mysterious East to well-bred Britons.
