Book excerpt: The discovery and publication of The Cottage Book in 1999 brought the name of Sir Edward Grey ¿ Viscount Grey of Fallodon ¿ to the fore again after years of neglect. The longest-serving Foreign Secretary of the 20th century (and probably best remembered for his words at the outbreak of the First World War: `The lights are going out all over Europe. We shall not see them lit again in our lifetime¿), he was also a naturalist and writer of the first order. First published in 1927, The Charm of Birds was an immediate popular success, but has been unavailable for many years. It deals mostly, but not exclusively, with birdsong, and is full of sensitive observation, beautifully written. Unlike most works of ornithology, it can be read for the pleasure of its prose alone. This handsome new edition contains all the woodcuts by Robert Gibbings that appeared in the original edition, with the addition of some of his other bird engravings. It is a volume to inspire all lovers of nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers of Robert Gibbings’ previous illustrated tales of river life such as “Sweet Thames Run Softly” (1940) and “Coming Down the Wye” (1942) will need no introduction to the unique style that this author uses to explore the people and places that he describes with warmth and affectionate good humour. But the real reason that his books have become so collectable is the delicate and evocative engravings with which he illustrates his subject. In “Lovely is the Lee”, first published in 1945, Gibbings has never written with more ease and grace than in this exploration of the River Lee in Ireland. Here is the simple and ancient life which still exists in Ireland, centered in tiny villages in the southern and western part of the Irish Free State. Gibbings finds every part of that life absorbing. As a naturalist he is sensitive to the bird life of the western counties and islands, and describes with an accurate beauty these winged inhabitants. Richly illustrated throughout with engravings by the author.

Book excerpt: This beautifully illustrated book is the first full-length critical study to focus on the watercolours of multitalented British artist and designer Eric Ravilious (1903–1942). Adopting the wide-ranging approach familiar to readers of his previous books on the artist, author James Russell explores the evolution of a remarkable talent. An introductory section offers an intimate portrait of Ravilious, an artist for whom personal relationships, particularly with women, were paramount. It goes on to describe the extraordinary achievements of an all-too-brief career, drawing on new research to seek out artistic influences and examine Ravilious's relationships with fellow-artists, as well as the development of his mark making. There follows the most comprehensive display of Ravilious watercolours yet assembled. Some have never been published, while others are familiar and well loved. Many are explored in short accompanying essays, some with full-bleed images that show details of paintings at full size. These texts are designed to entertain and enlighten, looking at composition, technique, influence and inspiration, or discussing the significance of particular subjects and the people behind the scenes. This is the definitive guide to the luminous, evocative and timeless watercolours of Eric Ravilious, an artist now regarded as one of the finest of the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not surprising that Robert Gibbings, artist to his fingertips, has chosen the Seine to follow Sweet Thames and his other river books. For the Seine comprises Pairs, the natural heart of the artistic world. But when he undertook to navigate that quiet-sounding river, little did he dream what was in store for him, and the dangerous nature of his nature in a flimsy little boat on the flooded upper reaches of the river will be missed by none of his readers, despite his light-hearted way of describing it. While Coming Down the Seine is more serious in tone and mood at times than Mr. Gibbing’s last book, it loses none of its appeal because of that. The occasional pause for meditative comment or philosophic aside or discussion of the problems of painting takes nothing away from and, indeed, tends to enhance the characteristically gay tone. No opportunity for the humorous approach is ever missed, no opening for the apt story is lost, no ‘character’ ever fails to receive deft appreciation. From the source of the river to its mouth there can be few places worthy of note about which he does not find something interesting or amusing to relate, whether because of their historical importance, their artistic associations, their scenic peculiarities, or their local legends. He has captured the ‘atmosphere’ of Paris with effortless ease—Paris of the bridges, the pavement cafes, the art schools, and the ateliers, Paris of Montparnasse, ‘cité de toutes les gloires, citée de tous les dédains.’ Recurring through the book are passages of descriptive writing of great beauty, rich in imagery. More than fifty wood engravings illuminate the pages.

Book excerpt: The first full scale biography of Robert Gibbings, with more than 400 illustrations, encompassing his whole life and providing a context for his work and achievements. Gibbings is often described as having been larger than life, a colourful and adventurous character but he was also responsible, perhaps more than anyone else, for bringing the art of wood-engraving to the attention of the general public. This book brings together a wealth of illustrations, both of Gibbing's own work and photographs recording his life, many unpublished.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Arranged chronologically by decade, from the 1890s to the 1990s, each decade is divided into two different types of writing: critical/documentary and imaginative writing, and is accompanied by a headnote which situates it thematically and chronologically. The Reader is also structured for thematic study by listing all the pieces included under a series of topic headings. The wide range of material encompasses writings of well-known figures in the Irish canon and neglected writers alike. This will appeal to the general reader, but also makes Irish Writing in the Twentieth Century ideal as a core text, providing a unique focus for detailed study in a single volume."--BOOK JACKET.
