Publisher: Longmans, Green and Co., New York, 1939
Stated first edition; part of series "The Living Thoughts Library" edited by Alfred O. Mendel; 154 p., immaculate and unmarked--but with name of former owner on half title page; illustrative end pages; binding firm; red boards in absence of d.j. have slightly bumped corners, and some stainns; spine somewhat faded but gilt lettering is legible. This collectible volume would benefit from rebinding.
Presentation Plate FPD, light toning, else content appears as unread and unblemished with good light blue boards displaying moderate surface/edge wear, some fading to spine. Still a strong, desirable book. Some of these older books do not have library distinctions. Instead, Index cards were used. I am enclosing this one for you. EnjoyThe life of Mary Stuart, one of the tragic figures in the history of the world, who was so easily put into the hands of destiny by early "everything in earthly power" without being able to hold it, soon after her death experienced very different representations: from the "hymn who defended her like a saint" to the very opposite. She wasâso much is certainâan attractive, passionate, intelligent, and proud woman, but probably less a queen than she still felt. "How was Maria Stuart? Was she really involved in her second husband's murder, was not she? "The case began to interest Stefan Zweig when he read a handwritten account of her execution at the British Museum in London. "I asked for a really reliable book. Nobody could tell me anything, and in such a searching and inquiring way I involuntarily got involved in the comparison and had started, without really knowing, a book about Maria Stuart..." Thus this admirably intuitive and at the same time largely objective novelistic biography was born. Shipping/Handling/Insurance/Tracking Included within the continental U.S. (Free Shipping). Extra Charges/Fees apply on Shipments Outside The U.S. and Expedited Shipments. Oversize and/or heavy books may require additional fees. Will advise. Written 6.17.2021AK #5113-70721 Img. 6325

FROM THE PUBLISHER - Erasmus is now little known, but in the early part of the 16th century he was a towering figure, ‘the greatest and most brilliant star of his century,' claims Zweig. An ordained priest, he advocated religious tolerance at a time when zealotry was the norm; his goal was to ‘unite the men of good will in every land, from every race and class, in one great league of the enlightened', free of war, ignorance and bigotry. inventory #9199
