The Art and History of Globes
Sylvia Sumira
This book celebrates the art and history
of the globe, focusing on the 400 years
when the printed globe – as navigational
tool, scientific instrument and powerful
status symbol – occupied an important
place in the history of European
exploration. It ranges from the first
globe ever made in China to the desktop
models in Victorian schoolrooms, and
from celestial globes of the sixteenth
century to charming pocket examples
produced as educational toys.

Sylvia Sumira is a leading authority
on historic globes and is one of
very few conservators in the world
to specialise in printed globes. She
worked in globe conservation at
the National Maritime Museum,
Greenwich, for several years and
spent a period of study at the
Austrian National Library in Vienna.
Featuring sixty examples drawn from
collections around the world, this is a
major new book on the subject for the
general reader and collectors alike, and
uses stunning new photography to pick
out the revealing details – ships
and sea monsters, navigators’ tracks
and newly found islands, constellations
and astronomical features – that help
us to understand why globes were made
and how they were used.

Claire Cock-Starkey was series
editor for all seven editions of
Schott’s Almanac. In 2012 she
wrote the infographics book
Seeing the Bigger Picture.
The Georgian Art of Gambling takes
the reader on a miscellaneous tour
through high and low society to
reveal all aspects of gambling in the
Georgian era. Descriptions of the most
fashionable card and dice games of the
day are interspersed with snippets of
contemporary anti-gambling pamphlets,
descriptions of the most famous (and
degenerate) gambling houses, and
accounts of the ruination of many
high-profile aristocrats. The Georgian
Art of Gambling covers wagering on
sports such as cockfighting, bull baiting,
boxing and cricket as well as the more
sedentary pleasures of the card table.
Both the civilised (card games portrayed
in the novels of Jane Austen) and the
debauched (card sharps and loaded dice)
are explored, offering the reader
a fascinating glimpse into the extent
of gambling in Georgian Britain.

For over 100 years (1714–1830) a King
George sat on the British throne. It was
a time of transformation, as cities grew,
industry thrived and trade expanded
round the world. New prosperity was
celebrated in great country houses and
beautifully landscaped gardens, while
taste and elegance drove social etiquette
and fostered a new consumer boom.
Yet what do we really know about the
people of this Augustan age, whose
beliefs and preoccupations have
so influenced our own? Georgians
Revealed, which accompanies a major
exhibition at the British Library,
explores the realities of their daily lives
through a fascinating variety of objects,
from playbills to porcelain, architects’
plans to fashion plates. The compelling
selection traces the Georgians’ famous
love of shopping and celebrity, gambling
and domestic design, and navigates the
rules that governed behaviour from
ballrooms to the sporting world. It
shows how a passion for entertainment
created innovations such as the circus,
pantomime and modern ballet, as well
as the pleasure gardens and masquerades
that brought the spice of intrigue and
danger to their clientele.
Spanning high culture and business,
consumerism and crime, Georgians
Revealed unravels the contradictions
and concerns that link the Georgian era
so closely to our own.

The Reverend Dodd, vicar of the

that the shadow of any real crime should
ever fall across his seaside parish. The
vicar’s peace is shattered one stormy

through his head.
When a body is found at an isolated

‘This detective novel is much more than

are well differentiated, and include one
of the most feckless, exasperating and
lifelike literary men that ever confused a
trail.’
Dorothy L. Sayers,
Sunday Times, 1934
For Miss Cordell, Principal of
Persephone College, there are two great
evils to be feared: unladylike behaviour
among her students, and bad publicity
for the college. So her prim and cosy
world is turned upside down when a
secret society of undergraduates meets
by the river on a gloomy January
afternoon, only to find the drowned
body of the college bursar floating in her
canoe.
When Miss Pongleton is found murdered
on the stairs of Belsize Park station, her
fellow-boarders in the Frampton Hotel
are not overwhelmed with grief at the
death of a tiresome old woman. But they
all have their theories about the identity
of the murderer, and help to unravel

‘Pongle’.

Miss F. J. Erskine
The Hon. Mrs Victor Bruce
‘Wool above, wool below, wool all
over: such is the hygienic rule for
cycling… Some wise people say that
corsets should be discarded for cycling.
This is not correct… It is essential in
cycling to have well-cut knickerbockers
in lieu of skirts.’
‘In the case of an accident, or of any
kind of clash with the police, silence was
never more golden.’
‘Most of the tight-fitting hats of today
are quite suitable for motoring, but
there is one little point to guard against,
and that is too tight a fitting. It is bad
for the hair, makes it greasy, and quickly
removes the cherished wave, and if
worn for long hours at the wheel causes
bad headaches.’
‘Egg beaten up in milk, with a
teaspoonful of whisky, is excellent
when a rider is at all done up.’
‘Riding in company is a certain
safeguard against annoyance from
tramps.’

on the early modern and 18th century
book trade in London. Using a range
of new illustrative and topographical
evidence, James Raven reconstructs
the communities of London printers,
booksellers and their associates,
reassessing working practices and
the changes brought to different
neighbourhoods. Raven shows how
the transformation in publishing
capacity relates to different sites of
production. Booksellers altered shops
and operations, and the working
environment brought new challenges
and complications. Particular sites
allowed sharing and support between
printers, stationers and booksellers,
and trade was boosted by nearby
markets and services. Increased industry
also attracted brash entrants to the book
trade, not all of whom won approval.

Printed Colour for All
Michael Twyman
Grace Higgens was for 50 years
the housekeeper to Vanessa Bell.
This book tells Grace’s story for the
first time, using her own words to
paint a vivid picture of her years in
Bloomsbury, in the South of France
and at Charleston farmhouse in
Sussex. Grace’s biography describes
a little-known side of the Bloomsbury
world and illuminates a lost era of
domestic service.
This major new book traces the
evolution of chromolithography, or
lithographic colour printing, from its
beginnings in the 19th century to its
dominant industrial position in the
50 years before World War I.
With over 850 colour illustrations,
this book demonstrates how
chromolithography helped to change
perceptions of the world by bringing
colour to so many walks of life.

The Book Trade in Early Modern England
Practices, Perceptions, Connections
Edited by John Hinks and Victoria Gardner
How important a part did books
play in the lives of successive English
monarchs and their families? This
volume presents a wide-ranging view
by leading experts of the material
and documentary evidence for royal
interest in handwritten and printed
books. At the heart of the volume is
the remarkable collection of royal
books held by the British Library.
Although Haydn’s music was
performed in many of Europe’s major
cities, London was to be the only
European city, apart from Vienna,
to welcome the composer in person.
He made two visits in the 1790s and
the essays in this volume examine the
relationship between the composer
and the commercial, political and
social world he found there.

The essays in this volume shed
light on the transformation in the
book trade in England from the
15th century, when the trade was
modest in scale and hamstrung by
legislation, to the 18th century,
by which time it had become
national in character and modern
in structure.
