Hard Cover Book. An English Man Looks At The World Author: HG Wells Publisher: Cassell & Co Date: 1914 Further Information: Yellow Cloth hardcover with lettering and patterning to spine in black. The spine has a Library label with an inscription.fictionPublished in 1914, this is a collection of essays by H.G. Wells consisting of journalistic pieces written between 1909 and 1914, spanning twenty-six pieces ranging from five to sixty-two pages in length. Roughly half of the essays were originally printed in the Daily Mail between 1904 and 1913, with ten more appearing in nearly as many weekly and monthly papers, and three others having had prior publication in volume form. The subjects range widely flight and aviation with the opening with Blériot's Channel crossing, the monarchy, imperialism, labour and socialism, modern warfare, sociology, divorce, education, motherhood, the future of civilisation, and more. It's essentially Wells thinking aloud in print opinionated, topical journalism rather than fiction, reflecting a period when he was consciously stepping back from novel-writing to comment directly on contemporary affairs. A companion American edition was published the same year by Harper and Brothers under the different title Social Forces in England and America.warrnambool, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, an englishman looks at the world, h g wells, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, pattison collection, warrnambool library, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library

Hard cover book. Martie and Others in Rhodesia Author: Sheila McDonald Publisher: Cassell & Co Date: 1927 Further Information: Rebound Cloth hardcover with lettering and patterning to spine in white texter. The spine has a Library label with an inscription.non-fictionMartie and Others in Rhodesia was published by Cassell & Co. in 1927. It's a collection of linked sketches and stories about settler life in colonial Rhodesia depicted in episodic, anecdotal accounts of daily life, characters, and the "rigours" of white settler society in early 20th-century Salisbury and the surrounding country. It sits alongside her better-known earlier book Sally in Rhodesia (1926), which originated as letters written by a young bride in Rhodesia to her mother overseas between 1907 and 1912, describing the rigours of domestic life in the city of Salisbury. Martie is essentially a sequel and companion volume in that same vein, with more fictionalised sketches of colonial life, characters, and social mores, following on from Sally's success.warrnambool, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, martie and others in rhodesia, sheila mcdonald
