Henry of Navarre: his life - the author's own copy

Descripción

Nice copy in dustwrapper. The author's own copy, with his ownership inscription, 21 October 1963, and from the library of his literary executor, Sir Michael Holroyd; dedicated "To GERMAINE and NORMAN HUNTER (with whom we shared a delightful journey to the country of Navarre)". "At the age of twelve Hesketh Pearson was attracted to Henry of Navarre [1553-1610] in the romances of Dumas and Stanley Weyman, and since then has read innumerable books on the subject. In this work the biographer has extricated the man from the fictional and historical legends that have blurred his real nature, and has clearly displayed his strength his frailty and his abounding humanity" (dustwrapper blurb).
