Description:
London: The Library of Imperial History, 1974. Hardcover. This is Winston Churchill's first biographic work, the subject of which is his father, Lord Randolph Churchill. This lovely edition was produced in very limited numbers using sheets from the 1974 Collected Works that were never bound by the original publisher. This edition contains the full, unabridged text of the 1906 first edition with the added benefit of the author's new Foreword from the 1952 Odhams edition. The result is the superb contents of the Collected Works - printed on 500-year archival paper with gilt top edge - in a heavy, red buckram binding with the Churchill Arms on the front cover. The contents are bound with red and gold head and tail bands and gray endpapers. The binding is far more practical and durable than the vellum in which most Collected Works volumes were originally bound. This copy is in as new condition, the binding and contents pristine with no wear, defects, or previous ownership marks. Winston ChurchillÂ’s…

Description:
London: Macmillan and Company Limited, 1907. Hardcover. This is the 1907 first one-volume unabridged edition of Winston ChurchillÂ’s biography of his father. This copy is more noteworthy for provenance than for intrinsic collectible value. The only previous owner mark in the book is inked in three lines on the front free endpaper recto: “Margaret Moss | Cowichan Station | B.C.” This book belonged to Margaret Johnstone Moss (1871-1937) of Cowichan Station, British Columbia. Margaret is noteworthy both for her accomplishments and for the fact that her history is substantially known – atypical for a woman of her time. During the Boer War Margaret was selected by the British Colonial office to work among the women and children in the concentration camps in Bloemfontein, South Africa, and was later put in charge of educational services there. It was likely here that Margaret met Major Claude Moss, then serving as the deputy assistant adjutant general of the Orange River Colony. They married Dec. 24,…

New York: Macmillan & Co., Ltd., 1906. First U.S. edition, only printing. Hardcover. This is the first U.S. edition, only printing, of Winston ChurchillÂ’s 1906 biography of his father, Lord Randolph Churchill. This U.S. edition is visually similar but aesthetically superior to its British counterpart, the volumes featuring gilt top page edges and a ribbed cloth binding with gilt and blind rules and the Marlborough Arms in gilt within a double blind ruled front cover panel. This set is in good minus overall condition, sound, complete, and unrestored but showing age and experience. The cloth bindings retain strong red hue and bright spine and front cover gilt, but show moderate overall scuffing, fraying at points to the extremities, and some wrinkling and concavity to the spine cloth, particularly that of Volume I. The contents are notably bright and clean for the edition with no spotting, strong top edge gilt, and clean fore and bottom edges. The same previous owner name, date of “1920”, and…

Lord Randolph Churchill was a two-part biography written by Winston Churchill of his father, a prominent Victorian politician It was first published in 1906 It received much critical acclaim However, filial devotion caused him to soften some of his father's less attractive aspects Theodore Roosevelt, who had known Lord Randolph, reviewed the book as "a clever, tactful and rather cheap and vulgar life of that clever, tactful and rather cheap and vulgar egotist" Some historians suggest Churchill used the book in part to vindicate his own career and in particular to justify crossing the floor 2 vols xvi, [2], 564; viii, [2], 531 pp Illustrated with photogravure portraits, facsimiles, etc 23x155 cm (9x6"), bound in red cloth lettered in gilt, gilt armorial shield on front covers Spines faded with a few marks and a touch of fraying, some light soiling to covers; front hinge of Volume 2 cracked but bindings sound, occasional foxing, most pages uncut,…

Description:
London: Macmillan and Company, 1906. First edition, only printing. Hardcover. This is the first edition, only printing of Winston Churchill's biography of his father, Lord Randolph Churchill, a lifelong mated pair bearing Lord Randolph's pasted-in signature. The two-volume work concentrates on Lord Randolph's career in Parliament after 1880. Winston Churchill's father died in January 1895 at age 45 following the spectacular collapse of both his health and political career. His son Winston was 20 years old. When he first contemplated writing his father's biography Winston Churchill was an itinerant soldier and war correspondent who had yet to write his first book. The son still dwelt very much in his father's shadow, both emotionally and in terms of the political career to which he already aspired. By the time the work was published in 1906, the young Winston Churchill already had half a dozen books to his credit and half a decade in Parliament. By 1906 Churchill had already left his father's…

This is a very good First American edition set. Generally regarded as aesthetically superior to the English edition, the red cloth here retains strong color, though the spines have very faintly darkened, with the Volume I spine just a bit concave and lightly fraying at the head and tail. The gilt titles and gilded top edges are bright. There is a neatly repaired front hinge break in Volume II. Both volumes have a date inked on their front free endpapers, the contents of both are otherwise fine, clean and unfoxed.

The Volume I binding is a bit shaken at the front hinge, but still firmly intact. The contents are notably bright and clean, with no spotting and strong top edge gilt.

Description:
London: Macmillan and Company, 1906. First edition, only printing. Hardcover. This is a first edition set of Winston Churchill's biography of his father, Lord Randolph Churchill. The first edition, only printing, is aesthetically pleasing, featuring deep red cloth, untrimmed page edges, gilt stamping, and the family coat of arms on the front covers. However, the red cloth binding of this edition proved quite susceptible to fading and wear and the contents to heavy spotting. First edition sets are not especially uncommon, but collector worthy sets are scarce. Here is a quite respectable set in very good condition. The red cloth bindings remain square and tight with negligible color shift between the covers and spine. Wear is modest, mostly confined to hinges and extremities with minor bumps to the upper Volume I corners and light scuffing to the boards. Shelf presentation is quite good, the red color well-preserved, soiling confined to a faint stain affecting the “CHU” in the Volume I title. The…

This is a very good example of the First American edition set, which was produced in slightly more deluxe fashion than the English edition, with a finer red cloth and gilded top edges. The red cloth here retains deep, rich color and the gilt titles and tops are bright. The spines are well-rounded, with just a hint of fraying at the spine heads. There are three noticeable surface scratches along the spine edge of Volume I and two faint dents in the upper edge of the front board. The front hinge of Volume I is just beginning to give. The contents of both volumes are otherwise fine, clean and unfoxed. A truly lovely set.

Description:
New York: Macmillan & Co., Ltd., 1906. First U.S. edition, only printing. Hardcover. This is the first U.S. edition, only printing, of Winston ChurchillÂ’s 1906 biography of his father, Lord Randolph Churchill, one of only two sets known to retain any portion of the extravagantly rare original dust jackets. This U.S. edition is visually similar but aesthetically superior to its British counterpart, adding gilt top page edges and a lightly scored cloth binding. What was unknown to bibliographers and collectors until we discovered this set was that the U.S. publisher originally issued the set in dust jackets. Instead of the comparatively restrained, tan dust jackets of the British first edition, this set informs us that the U.S. dust jackets were strikingly different, printed in vivid orange on lighter orange stock, the entire field of the jackets printed with repeating rows of a stylized publisherÂ’s device. This orange field is overprinted in black with the Churchill coat of arms on the lower right…
