Description:
Faber and Faber, London, first edition, 1979. Cloth, 8vo, 23 cm,. 452 pp, plates, ills. An "excellent study" according to John Feather in A Dictionary of Book History. From the blurb: "Apart from the Bible, almanacs were the most influential and widely dispersed form of literature in Tudor and Stuart England. At their zenith in the later seventeenth century, they sold at a rate of 400,000 copies a year. They were read by many people who read little else, and the works of Shakespeare and Jonson, among others, have numerous references to them. Dr. Capp's fascinating book is the first to study their history in depth. It is full of vivid detail, and shows clearly how relevant they were to almost every aspect of life, social, intellectual, religious, political. As well as being a powerful force in revolutionary times, they played a central part in spreading scientific progress and medical learning, and in the development of popular journalism and printing.

Christie, Manson & Woods Ltd, London, sale dates: 13-14 June 1979 and 11-12 June, 1980. 2 vols, boards, small 4to,. 256 and 169 pp, numerous plates, some coloured. 553 lots. Lots are collated, provenances given, and many lots are extensively annotated. From the introduction to the Catalogue : "The collection is primarily of English literature, with emphasis on the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. The few excursions outside that range are exceptional books and manuscripts. Almost all that Houghton acquired is of superlative quality and interest, frequently the kind of item that causes one to be astonished that it should even exist. For example, of just over seventy-five Short-title Catalogue books appearing in the first part of the sale, more than a dozen are either unique, or the only known perfect copy, or the only one yet remaining in private hands. Among many notable manuscripts are long runs of letters and manuscripts of Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning...There are also…

From the introduction: "The second sale of English books printed before 1641 from the Bibliotheca Phillippica includes four works intimately associated with three Tudor and Stuart kings. Henry VIII's Assertio septem sacramentorum adversus Martinum Lutherum, 1521, is the work that earned him the title of Fidei Defensor', borne by all his successors; the copy described below is of particular interest for its contemporary notes in a northern humanistic hand (lot 2596). The copy of his letter to Luther printed by Pynson in 1526 is one of the small number known in the publisher's (or presentation) binding by John Reynes stamped with twin panels of the arms of Christ and those of the King (lot 2597). The main achievement of Edward VIs short reign was the version of the Book of Common Prayer that bears his…
