    First Edition. The Final Book in the Bastable Family Adventure Series NESBIT, Edith. Oswald Bastable and Others. Illustrated by Charles Brock and H.R. Millar. London: WellsGardner, Darton & Co., Ltd., [1905]. First edition of the final book in Nesbit's much-loved Bastable family cycle., First state with number on page 96 transposed as 69. Octavo (8 x 5 5/8 inches; 203 x 143 mm.). x, 369, [1, blank] pp. [advertisements 9+1 blank]. Frontispiece and vignette title-page included in pagination. Twenty photogravure plates and one line drawing in the text on p. 103. Publisher's maroon cloth, front cover and spine pictorially decorated and lettered in gilt, neat ink inscription on front paste-down, spine faded. A very good copy. This concluding volume finds Oswald Bastable and his siblings once again plotting schemes and adventures in their quest for fortune and glory. Like its predecessors (The Story of the Treasure Seekers, 1899, and The Wouldbegoods, 1901), the tale is narrated in Oswald's spirited first-person voice, with a mixture of comedy, mischief, and moral lessons. The Bastable stories were enormously influential on later children's literature, shaping the voice and structure of C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia and Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons. Nesbit's blend of realism, imagination, and anarchic humor helped establish the modern adventure story for children, and her Bastable books remain central to her enduring reputation.…

Bookplate of Ernest Gould Williams on front paste-down of first volume. The titles: A Christmas Carol The Haunted Man The Battle of Life The Cricket on the Hearth The Chimes Following the overwhelming success of A Christmas Carol in 1843, Dickens embarked upon the Christmas Books project, seeking to marshal "the Carol philosophy . in order to strike a sledgehammer blow" for England's lower classes. He continued publishing the Christmas Books throughout the 40s, and the stories became mainstays of Dickens's public reading tours of the 1850s and 1860s. C[harles]. E[dmund]. Brock (1870-1938) was a widely published English line artist and book illustrator who earned his first book commission at age twenty. He became a very successful illustrator, best known for his line work, initially in the tradition of Hugh Thomson, but he was also a skilled colorist. Brock's work varied with the sort of story he was illustrating, some of it refined and described as "sensitive to the delicate, teacup-and-saucer primness and feminine outlook of the early Victorian novelists," while other work was "appreciative of the healthy, boisterous, thoroughly English characters," i.e. soldiers, rustics, and "horsey types." Other illustrations were grotesqueries drawn to amuse children looking at or reading storybooks.…
