Belloguet (Andre). L'Europe Comique, Amuser Instruire, Cocasserie Dediée a la Jennesse, Paris, 1867, satirical lithographic map with contemporary hand-colouring, light overall toning, 450 x 640 mm, with another copy similar, but with repaired marginal tears and laid on later limp card QTY: (2)NOTE:The map appears to lack any overt political message and although it is dominated by the large face that is Russia, the latter is not depicted as dangerous or acquisitive of neighbouring states."An outlandish riot of different physiognomies and expressive faces whose shapes roughly follow the established political boundaries of contemporary Europe. Most dominant amongst them is the giant figure of Russia, a cultured and erudite gentleman sporting a wide-brimmed hat and wearing a monocle. This may perhaps symbolise Russia’s growing cultural self-expression in the fields of literature, music and the arts. Whether Belloguet’s map had any deeper meanings beyond mere cocasserie (foolery) is not at all clear. Certainly, it appears to lack any discernible political overtones and claims simply to “amuser et instruire” (amuse and instruct)."

He decided on a career in horticulture at the age of 10 while helping to run his father's rectory garden in Toft, Lincolnshire. During the Second World War Roach was part of the Dig for Victory campaign and, in 1946, he was made chief horticultural officer of the newly formed National Agricultural Advisory Service. He became successively regional fruit adviser for the South West and South East before taking the post of national fruit adviser. Retirement from the ministry in 1972 triggered a new career as a consultant to the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation and the World Bank. Roach's book, Cultivated Fruits of Britain, Their Origin and History (1985), is still regarded as a bible for many fruit experts. This was followed by the descriptive texts for Hooker's Finest Fruits, which was published by the Royal Horticultural Society in 1989. In 1966 he was awarded the Ridley Medal of the Worshipful Company of Fruiterers. The Royal Horticultural Society awarded him the Veitch Memorial Medal in 1978. Other illustrious winners of the award include Gertrude Jekyll (1928), Francis Kingdon-Ward (1934), Vita Sackville-West (1955), Harold Hillier (1957), Roy Lancaster (1972), David Austin (1994) and Stefan Buczacki (2010).
