Hard Cover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 4th Printing. 4th printing (Ford-Smith, Folio 76 #1140). Includes publisher's slipcase. Fine book in near fine slipcase. Slipcase faintly scuffed. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 2003 Hard Cover. 288 pp. A collection of humorous vignettes by various authors, with contributions by William Shakespeare, Samuel Johnson, Charles Dickens, Winston S. Churchill, the Queen of England, G.K. Chesterton, P.G. Wodehouse, Mark Twain, Dorothy Parker, Groucho Marx, etc., etc. Ever since Chaucer's day, when the host of the Tabard Inn in Southwark rose to welcome the Canterbury Pilgrims with a joke, the After Dinner Speech, designed, if possible, to reduce the assembled company to helpless merriment, has presented the ultimate challenge. The best speakers are natural story-tellers - Gerard Hoffnung, reading a selection of letters from continental hoteliers: 'There is a French widow in every bedroom affording delightful prospects'; John Mortimer telling the woeful tale of a man's numerous unsuccessful attempts to murder his wife: 'At no time did Mrs Scott feel that the magic had gone out of their marriage' - and in this collection of post-prandial treasures you will find the very best of them, from Groucho Marx on how to resist a femme fatale, to Ralph Steadman surreally addressing the Lewis Carroll Centenary Dinner. 'Goodness', said a friend on greeting Mae West, 'where did you get those beautiful pearls?' 'Goodness', replied Mae, 'had nothing to do with it.' Shaggy dog stories, practical jokes, sporting anecdotes, rousing toasts, travellers' tales and risque reminiscences rub shoulders in this essential collection with real-life revelations and moments of history. Among the guests are Peter Ustinov, Jilly Cooper, Brian Johnstone, Charles Dickens, Dorothy Parker, Robertson Davies, Henry Grady and A.P. Herbert. There is food and drink in abundance. There is gentle reflection and endearing charm as well as defiant frivolity. Above all there are stories for every occasion - witty, absurd, momentous, philosophical, fascinating, poignant, and forever entertaining.

Zustand: Nuovo. Bross., cm 24x21, pp 281, tavv. e ill. in b/n. Traduzione dall'inglese di Marinella Caputo. A cura di Alberto Sorbini. T.A. Trollope (1810-1892), storico, romanziere, giornalista, nato in Inghilterra, ha fatto parte di una famiglia di letterati. Dal 1843 al 1873 visse insieme alla madre a Firenze, come molti suoi connazionali, formando quella comunità che prese il nome di anglo-fiorentini. Nel 1862, poco dopo l'Unità d'Italia, intraprese un viaggio in Umbria e nelle Marche assieme ad un amico, il cui resoconto diede origine al volume A lenten journey in Umbria and the Marches. Il suo fu un viaggio insolito rispetto ai luoghi canonici del Grand Tour, l'obiettivo era quello di visitare cittadine meno frequentate ma ricche di storia. Partiti da Firenze, passando per Arezzo, arrivarono a Città di Castello, da qui si diressero a Gubbio, allora di difficile raggiungimento, passando per una strada poco frequentata quella che va dall'attuale Umbertide a Gubbio. Poi Perugia, Assisi, Foligno e da qui, attraverso il passo di Colfiorito, le Marche: Camerino, Macerata, Fermo, Loreto, Recanati Ancona e infine San Marino. L'importanza di questo testo non sta solo nella descrizione di monumenti e opere d'arte, ma nel fornire un quadro interessante sulle due regioni appena dopo la liberazione dallo Stato Pontificio. - ISBN: 9788888802787.

Trollope begins by announcing that he has 'a work nearly ready for the Press, wh. may probably be worth your attention [.] It is designed as companion to Mr Horne's work on the Scriptures, of wh. as you are the publishers, you may perhaps have no objection to engage in another, wh. is designed to comprise whatever is not supplied in that work for the use of the Theological Student, so that the two together will contain all that is necessary to be known by a Candidate for Holy Orders.'
