ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1971). (1941) 1978 reprint of 1970 2nd edition. 12mo (90mm x 145mm). Pp153. 32 colour plates of fish (see note), b&w photos, illustrations. Light green boards, spine & upper boards titled in black. Dust-wrapper "E". Very good in dust-wrapper. This volume of the Observer's Books series was first published in 1941 under the authorship of A. Laurence Wells. See WELLS, A. Laurence. "The excellent colour plates were taken, as usual, from the matching Wayside and Woodland volume - which had in turn recycled them from a long out-of-print European tome." (Marren & Carter). The Observer's Book Of Freshwater Fishes was one of the last books to ascribe different specific names to the many races and varieties of trout. Hence we have the Welsh black-finned trout, Salmo nigripinnis; the Orkney sea trout, Salmo orcadensis; the phinnock or Eastern sea trout, Salmo brachypoma; and many others. It was not until T.B. Bagenal's revised edition of 1970 that this was changed and the many races were grouped together as Salmo trutta. Although more accurate, the book loses much of its charm as a result. In either edition, this is still one of the most useful pocket references to freshwater and estuarine fish. Dust-wrapper A is white with green titles and decorations and has a plate showing two fish. Dust-wrapper B is white with green titles and decorations and has a plate showing three fish, and dust-wrapper C is green with white and yellow titles, orange decorations and a plate showing two fish. Dust-wrapper D is the same but with Bagenal's name, and dust-wrapper E is white with red and black titles and has a photograph of a single perch. This is dust-wrapper E. .

Cloth, 8vo, 26 cm, 216 pp, ills (some in colour). From the blurb: "In this enchanting new book, illustrated in colour and black and white with many drawings which have never been reproduced before, and a number of recently discovered photographs by Beatrix's father, Margaret Lane, author of the best-selling biography, The Tale of Beatrix Potter, considerably extends the biographical background of Beatrix Potter's 'magic years', from early childhood to her marriage, during which the genius of the author-artist developed and flowered. There are fascinating glimpses of the secluded life that the young Beatrix lived in a Victorian family in Kensington, with a father whose only real interest was photography, and a mother whose life revolved around her daily drive in a carriage to pay calls. The development of Beatrix's artistic gifts, her intense study of botany and zoology, and the invention of a secret cipher to record her private thoughts and daily happenings in a vast journal - these are some of the lonely exercises which finally led to the writing and illustration of tales for children which are now internationally acclaimed. Margaret Lane traces the genesis of the stories, which developed from illustrated letters written by Beatrix Potter to her ex- governess's children; and she reveals, in illuminating detail, the relationship of the stories to scenes and episodes in Beatrix's life. In an epilogue she records the transformation of the lonely, diffident young woman who created a magic world in her imagination into the strong-willed, highly practical farmer she became in middle age after her marriage."
