Rheims: Valade, Cazin, 1782. Fourth edition. An engraved frontispiece and title page vignette by Corbin after Laurent, large octavo, pp viii, 141,(i), all edges gilt, a small marginal stain to the lower corners of the frontispiece and title page, a contemporary name of Sundorne on the title page, otherwise just a little age-toned internally, marbled endpapers, bound in a fine straight-grain green morocco, gilt decoration at the borders, inner dentelles gilt, the spine gilt decorated, a little scuffed rubbed and marked, the spine a little dull. The page size is 14 x 23 cms, so this seems to be an unusal large paper copy. It is certainly very generously margined. [With the bookplate of John Corbet, 1751-1817, of the Sundorne Estate, who was an English sportsman of the Shropshire landed gentry and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1775 to 1780. This copy was purchased by myself from Rosemary Verey in February 1997, following a very good fish lunch which she had cooked. Unfortunately it is without her signature.]. Fourth edition. Full morocco. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250. Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love.
