A 'Rudd's Table or Reflecting Dressing Table', late 18th century, having three frieze drawers, the central drawer having an open box, lidded compartments and a sliding tray, flanked by a pair of pull-out drawers which swivel, fitted with open and box compartments and with two hinged mirrors, 105cm wide 70cm deep 79cm high 'Rudd's Table or Reflecting Dressing Table' was popularised by its appearance in Hepplewhite's 'The Cabinet Maker and Upholsterers' Guide', where Hepplewhite makes handsome acknowledgement to the original inventor: 'Rudd's Table or Reflecting Dressing Table possesses every convenience which can be wanted or mechanism or ingenuity supply'. The maker who most improved this design was Thomas Shearer. Ralph Fastnedge, in his book 'Shearer Furniture Designs', suggests the table was named after the personable, but notorious, Mrs Rudd. Margaret Caroline Rudd was a prominent 18th century forger, described as a despicable character, who left men trailing in her wake. One such gentleman was Valentine Rudd, who had the misfortune of marrying her. After moving to London, the couple split up and Margaret moved out of their home. However, as they were still married, Mrs Rudd simply went about living her life while putting it all on the bill of her estranged husband, resulting eventually in Valentine being put into debtor's prison. Margaret then became attached to identical twin brothers - Daniel and Robert Perreau. Although Daniel was a gambler, his brother was happily married and a successful businessman. All of this was blown apart by Mrs Rudd, who dragged both brothers into her world of forgery and crime. All three stood before the Old Bailey in 1775 on forgery charges, the Perreau brothers being found guilty and sentenced to death by hanging. Mrs Rudd, however, used her charm to obtain a not guilty verdict and was released. She died in relative obscurity in 1779. CONDITION REPORT: Veneer replacement to frieze. Minor veneer loss.

Meyer, Dr. Hans Across East African Glaciers: an Account of the First Ascent of Kilimanjaro 18x25cm A Hardcover Quarto (180x248mm) book in a rather battered library binding, but with the contents in exceptionally good condition; 20 preliminary pages plus 404 pages of text including detailed appendices on the geology, geography, selected flora and insects of the region, and an index; chromolithographed frontispiece, 8 tipped in photographs, 12 photogravure plates and 19 line drawings in the text; 3 coloured fold-out maps. The frontispiece and eight photographs were printed in Germany. There are small library stamps on the front inner end-paper, the back of the frontispiece and the first page of the preface. Regarded by many as the most important book on mountaineering in Africa. Translated from the German by E.H.S. Calder, the book documents the first undisputed ascent of Kibo Peak, the highest point in Africa. Mount Kilimanjaro has three peaks, Shira, Mawenzi and Kibo, the latter being the highest. Dr. Meyer was a geologist and experienced climber who made several trips to the Kilimanjaro region between 1887 and 1889, culminating in his successful ascent to the Kibo peak. In 1887, during his first attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, Meyer reached the base of Kibo, but had to turn back, as he did not have the equipment necessary to handle the deep snow and ice of the peak. The following year, Meyer planned another attempt with the cartographer Oscar Baumann, but the mission was aborted due to an Arab revolt. In 1889, however, Meyer returned to Kilimanjaro with the celebrated Austrian mountaineer, Ludwig Purtscheller, for another attempt. Their climbing team included two local headmen, nine porters, a cook, and a guide. Meyer and Purtscheller finally reached the summit on the southern rim of the crater on Purtscheller`s 40th birthday, October 6, 1889. Meyer named this summit `Kaiser Wilhelm Spitze` (now known as Uhuru Point). In Meyer`s honour, the highest summit of Mawenzi is still known as Hans Meyer Peak. The summit of Kibo wouldn`t be climbed again until 20 years later. Meyer`s eventual success has been attributed to his recognition that the greatest obstacle to achieving the summit was the lack of food in the upper regions. In his final climb he established several camps on the mountain, and was able to make a number of attempts at reaching the summit without descending to the base. This is a lively and highly readable account of the expedition. Good London George Philip and Son 1891 Click here to view further details and images and to bid

Williamson (Graham) RICHTERSVELD - THE ENCHANTED WILDERNESS 310mm x 274mm x 24mm Foreword by Sir David Attenborough. 258 pp. Black Cloth Hardcover with Gilt title to spine and DW. Beautifully illustrated in colour. Illustrated end-papers. `Located in the north west corner, with the Orange River as its northern boundary, the Richtersveld is South Africa`s only true desert. This all encompassing natural history work vividly describes the landscape of this area - from its great sand plains to the rugged mountains that change dramatically with the varying light of day and seasons of the year. Original thoughts and observations fill the chapters on the plants, where the author brings habitats, pollination, flowers and evolution to life. These sections are highly illustrated and a checklist of more than 1700 plants is also included. Further chapters cover the fossil sites, the weather and the geology - with its ancient rocks and jagged mountains dating back more than 2000 million years. The Richtersveld is also home to the last remaining traditional nomadic herders in South Africa, who are sympathetically described and photographed. The epilogue discusses the environmental status of the Richtersveld from pre-historic times to the present, and puts the onslaught by man on this fragile ecosystem into perspective. Author Graham Williamson has created an all encompassing work: a guide to tempt the traveller; a source book on the history of the people and the geology of the area; and an illustrated reference work of the flora and fauna of this enchanted African wilderness`.
