‘I feel we can never be really civil to Americans again - but don't tell anyone!’ DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. An excellent, early A.L.S., Daphne, eight pages, 8vo, Mustapha Barracks, Alexandria, 14th December (1936), to 'My dear Foy' (Foy Quiller-Couch), on the printed stationery of the 2nd Battalion Grenadier Guards. Du Maurier informs her friend that she has written to her mother to thank her for her help with a home and continues to remark 'Well - my dear - hasn't it all been terrible, this thing in England? I suppose you all thought of nothing else, and so did everyone here. I feel it is all for the best, as the new one will be very conscientious and nice, and keep up old traditions. I do so wonder if you had the same feeling as I did; an awful secret fear that the new King might not be cheered when the Proclamation was read, and being a shy man he would probably feel it very much. I almost wired to you to take the train to London….and cheer loudly outside his house! But thank goodness, I see in the papers that he had a great welcome. I am so for him, aren't you? As for Edward - it's so dreadful I almost can't bear to hear him mentioned; although, for his peace of minds sake, I hope he will wear his beret and enjoy himself in Austria. I feel in the bottom of his heart he will feel like Judas Iscarriot (sic) and never be happy again. I do so trust it will be allowed to die down, and he and that Mrs. S. will not be mobbed by vulgar crowds, and people will stop their beastly gossip. The Guardsman (her husband, Frederick Browning) and I feel we can never be really civil to Americans again - but don't tell anyone! (You probably feel the same!)' She concludes by sending her best wishes for Christmas ('and I think 1937 should be a better year for everyone, don't you?') and again refers to the arrangements for renting a home when they return to England. Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Du Maurier. A letter of wonderful content. VG Foy Quiller-Couch - daughter of British writer Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863-1944), and a life-long friend of Du Maurier. Indeed, Du Maurier was accompanied by Foy Quiller-Couch when she became inspired with the storyline for her novel Jamaica Inn. Some years previously the two ladies were staying at Jamaica Inn and went riding on Bodmin Moor. They became lost in bad weather conditions and apparently sheltered for some time in a derelict cottage on the moor but were eventually led back to Jamaica Inn by their horses. Frederick Browning (1896-1965) British Lieutenant-General of World War II, deputy commander of the First Allied Airborne Army in Operation Market Garden, 1944. Husband of the novelist Daphne Du Maurier. Du Maurier writes in the immediate wake of one of the most important events in the history of the British monarchy. King Edward VIII had abdicated on 11th December 1936, just days before the present letter was written, in order to be able to marry his mistress, Wallis Simpson, an American divorcee. Edward's younger brother, King George VI, acceded to the throne and made a speech to the accession council on 13th December, a day before the present letter. The new King's dislike of public speaking is well documented, and was the subject of the film The King's Speech (2010).

DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. T.L.S., Daphne, three pages, 8vo, Menabilly, Par, Cornwall, n.d. ('Good Friday', c.1960), to 'My dear' (Foy Quiller-Couch). Du Maurier writes regarding her work Castle Dor, 'The Justice's Clerk a good idea. I hope he will bear in mind the period - 1860's. (On the other hand this might make things worse. Foreigners might have been deported at the flick of an eye!)' continuing 'What a nice letter from Mr. Bozman. He could have made many quibbles which would have necessitated some re-writing - always a nightmare - but pruning is easy to do, I am well trained in it. I think he probably means the conversations between Carfax and Ledru, over their punch, and on the way to Lantvan, and then again over dinner - which could be said to hold up action. Anyway, it is simple enough to cut them down'. Du Maurier also writes of social matters and her family, 'I hate “the roads” this time of year, and dread the whizzing down of Kits' and his crony in a fast sports car. As to the gentleman at the Palace, or rather from the Palace, it is a quarter to twelve and he is still abed - our Esther is waiting to cook his breakfast, with the steaks for lunch ready in the pan…..The Guardsman, for the first time in his life, has disappeared to the 3 hour service at Tywardreath church….' One small tape stain to the upper edge of the first page, not affecting the text or signature, otherwise VG Foy Quiller-Couch - daughter of British writer Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863-1944), and a life-long friend of Du Maurier. Indeed, Du Maurier was accompanied by Foy Quiller-Couch when she became inspired with the storyline for her novel Jamaica Inn. Some years previously the two ladies were staying at Jamaica Inn and went riding on Bodmin Moor. They became lost in bad weather conditions and apparently sheltered for some time in a derelict cottage on the moor but were eventually led back to Jamaica Inn by their horses. Castle Dor is a historical novel which was not completed by Arthur Quiller-Couch at the time of his death. Du Maurier completed the work, at the request of Foy Quiller-Couch, which was published in 1961. The story is based around the legend of Tristan and Iseult, although set in 19th century Cornwall.
