Essery (Rev. William Alfred, c. 1831-1904). A Yachting Cruise Around the World on the SS Ceylon 1881-1882, by the Rev. W.A. Essery, of London, 1885, an unpublished manuscript of 280 pages, written in a very neat hand on numbered rectos of ruled leaves, plus 13 pages of preliminaries including title, dedication, preface and contents on unnumbered ruled leaves loosely inserted at front, contemporary half calf over cloth, worn and backstrip deficient, 4to (23 x 19 cm), together with a cabinet card portrait of Essory inscribed by him to verso for Miss [Anne H.] Sutton [of New York, USA], the book's dedicatee, dated October 1884, plus 2 autograph letters signed from Essery to Miss Sutton, Instow, North Devon, 23 July 1894 & 147 Peckham Rye, London SE, 20 September 1894, each 4 pages, written in a very neat hand, 8vo, plus an octavo sheet with a partial brief contents list of Chapters 1-16QTY: (5)NOTE:An unpublished manuscript account of one of the earliest commercial pleasure cruises and the first commercial cruise around the world. The SS Ceylon was a single-screw, iron-hulled auxiliary steamer built by P&O in 1858 for use on the regular service from Southampton to Malta and Alexandria. With accommodation for 130 first and 30 second-class passengers it was bought by the fledgling Inter-Oceanic Yachting Company Ltd. The Company belonged to friends and business partners James Culliford and John Lockie Clarke who had established a steamer brokerage, Culliford & Clarke in London in 1875. No doubt partly inspired by Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days (1872) Clarke dreamt of going into leisure cruising and with some marketing fanfare they planned this ten-month voyage which was to take place from late October 1881 to late August 1882, covering some 37,500 nautical miles and stopping at various exotic and alluring places on the way.While this account inevitably describes a lot of day-to-day life on board ship Essery was one of the few people that completed the whole journey and gives some interesting accounts of places visited. The account is divided into the following chapters:Chapter I. First days at sea – Bordeaux; II. Beautiful Lisbon and Belem; III. Jebel-al-Tarik; IV. Coasting in the Mediterranean; V. Crowded Naples & empty Pompeii; VI. Rounding Sicily to Valetta; VII. From the Piraeus to the Golden Horn; VIII. Smyrna city, castle & missions; IX. The Island of Roses & the city of Alexander; X. Onward to India; XI. Seeing Bombay; XII. Ceylon’s isle; XIII. Twenty-four hours in Madras; XIV. British India’s capital; XV. In the straits of Malacca; XVI. Sailing up China Sea; XVII. Hong Kong & Sunday in Canton; XVIII. Canton, doing the sights; XIX. From Hong Kong to Nagasaki; XX. Through five Nadas – Kioto; XXI. Missions in Kioto & Osaka – Yokohama; XXII. Honolulu & Hilo; XXIII. Going to San Francisco and the equator; XXIV. On the South Pacific; XXV. Through Magellan Straits to Monte Video; XXVI. A trio of South Atlantic Ports; XXVII. Across the tropics, homeward.We have located one published account of part of the cruise by William Monroe (1823-1896), A Two Months’ Cruise in the Mediterranean in the Steam-Yacht ‘Ceylon’ (London: Hurst & Blackett, 1884) but we have located no published work of the whole voyage which was completed by fewer than 40 people including Essery and his American travelling friend to whom the manuscript is dedicated, Miss Anne H. Sutton. This manuscript is therefore a potentially unique and historically important account of this first commercial world cruise.Essery’s published works were otherwise entirely of a religious nature and include Hymns for Sunrise Hours and others (1892) and The Ascending Cross (1905).

CCLXXII.Henry Drury (1778-1841) was born in Harrow, London, the son of Joseph Drury, headmaster of Harrow School. He was educated at both Harrow and Eton, and at King's College, Cambridge (matriculated 1797, B.A. 1801, M.A. 1804, Fellow 1799–1808). He served as a master at Harrow for 41 years from 1801 to 1841 and as a tutor there to Lord Byron to whom he later became a close friend and correspondent. Drury was elected to the Roxburghe Club on its first anniversary in 1813 and also a Fellow of the Royal Society in February 1818. Drury was considered the favourite candidate to succeed George Butler as headmaster of Harrow in 1829 but an external candidate, Charles Longley, an Oxford academic was appointed. Thereafter Drury's effectiveness as a schoolmaster declined and he became increasingly eccentric and bad-tempered. He married Caroline Tayler in 1808, the daughter of Archdale Wilson Tayler and sister of the artist John Frederick Tayler. In 1810 Byron wrote to Francis Hodgson "Talking of marriage puts me in mind of Drury (who, I suppose, has a dozen children by this time, all fine, fretful brats); I will never forgive matrimony for having spoiled such an excellent bachelor".

Clerk (John). Etchings, Chiefly of Views in Scotland. MDCCLXXIII-MDCCLXXIX, mixed edition, Edinburgh, 1828, portrait frontispiece on india paper, 41 etched and lithographed views, a few tinted, on 38 sheets, occasional light spotting, front endpaper detaching, bookplate, hinges tender, contemporary cloth-backed boards, some edge wear and stains, folio 460 x 280 mm QTY: (1)NOTE:Mixed edition. The 1825 first edition contained 28 plates, the second expanded edition of 1855 contained 57 plates, the present volume contains a mixture from both editions, including the 1855 portrait. A pencil note at front states 'the 29th plate is not in either edition... some of the 1855 plates have been included but not all, they have in some cases been bound in the wrong way'. "Clerk was an exceptional amateur artist. His wealthy background afforded him the luxury of entertaining numerous careers, including medicine and business, and he also showed a considerable interest in geology. In the 1740s he began sketching alongside his brother-in-law, Robert Adam, and the artist Paul Sandby. Clerk travelled extensively throughout Scotland, recording a wide range of landscapes and ancient buildings. His sketches of Edinburgh and the surrounding areas are highly personal representations of his native countryside. Clerk's youthful fascination with the sea and the navy resulted in his famous study 'An Essay on Naval Tactics' (1790), which he developed throughout the 1790s." (National Galleries Scotland).

Philip Anthony Walters (b1955), four oil paintings, three semi-abstract scenes with figures and one portrait, 50.5cm x 40.5cm and 30cm x 40.cm, three signed 'PAW' to lower left. Philip Walters was born in Fleetwood Lancs on 20th May 1955 to Heather and Bill Walters. Bill was a trawlwerman and unfortunately passed away at sea in 1967 when Phil was 12. He was always a free spirit and never liked being told what to do which has got him into a few scrapes over the years but he has a heart of gold and would give his last penny to help anyone in need.He started his working life as a centre lathe turner but had to leave after developing dermatitis. Subsequently he sold advertising space in local magazines and publicising events such as the Fylde Folk Festival. He also eked out a living collecting and selling scrap metal, digging worms on the beach for fishermen and fishing himself.His passion for painting has never dwindled and his heart and soul have gone into every brushstroke so each one deserves to find a loving home.The picture above is Phil(centre) in his vergers robes at St Peter?s church in Fleetwood where he has been the most happy. His faith has been paramount in helping him deal with his recent diagnosis of terminal illness and his wonderful cheery character is still strong.
