A BOY holds a lantern in the bows of a boat, rowed by an old man between the trees of a flooded garden, to a tall single-gabled house beyond. This image, the cover to the original edition of The Children of Green Knowe, was drawn by Peter Boston as one of the illustrations to the first children's story written by his mother, Lucy Boston, in 1954. The fictional boy, Tolly, was based on himself.

The house which inspired them was the Manor, Hemingford Grey, a rare Norman stone house which Lucy Boston bought shortly before the outbreak of war in 1939. Peter, her only child, was at King's College, Cambridge, reading Architecture, to which he had transferred from Engineering. Peter's father, Harold Boston, left his wife in 1935, and Peter shared his time between them. Lucy went to Austria and Italy to study painting but returned to England, taking lodgings in King's Parade to be near her son. They worked on the Manor together, pulling away later accretions to the house with their own hands, guided by instinct, and aware of the palpable presences in its rooms which later inspired the books.

Peter received news of his first class degree when serving with the Royal Engineers in North Africa. In the Italian campaign, he was awarded the Military Cross for his part in bridging the Rapido river at Cassino by the 4th Divisional Engineers in the night of 12-13 May 1944, a feat he personally directed. He ran an annual dinner for his comrades to commemorate the event.

Peter Boston completed his architectural training after the Second World War at Liverpool University, where he won the Pilkington Travelling Scholarship. After working with the practice of Pite, Son and Fairweather in London he joined the firm of James and Bywaters with several student friends in 1956. In 1966, they changed the practice name to Saunders, Boston and Brock, and it later became Saunders Boston, with offices in Ashwell, Hertfordshire (where Peter and his family also lived in a converted mill), and Cambridge, where a number of the firm's buildings can be seen.
 
−
 
 
−
The work of James and Bywaters stood on a post-war edge between Neo-Georgian tradition and a polite modernism. Boston, like most of his generation, cut the explicit ties with the past, although he was much involved in conservation and many of his new buildings show a sensitivity both to place and to the value of ideas from older buildings.
 
−
 
 
−
One of his most distinctive early works was the studio house he built in 1959 at Hemingford Grey for Elisabeth Vellacott, a painter who was Lucy Boston's wartime companion. Standing in the remains of an old orchard, the "A" frame of timber, with a single large window in its front gable, appears to float off the ground. Inside, the plan and section are ingeniously worked around a central brick chimney-stack, no less simple and grand than the Manor itself. He tried to repeat this idea on several occasions, in Sweden, Switzerland and Essex, but was always refused planning permission.

In Cambridge, the 1960s Gilmerton Court flats on Trumpington Road are a tougher version of Eric Lyons's Span Housing, with some felicitous touches. In the mid-1970s, the firm redeveloped a site at the corner of Bridge Street and Round Church Street, keeping a varied line of historic buildings along the frontages while a modern office building of engineering brick was inserted behind. While the new work is more heavyweight than today's conservation practice would expect, it was a thoughtful solution at a time when total demolition was more normal, and it received many awards.

−
Not far away are the Mong Building (1998) at Sidney Sussex and the Fisher Building at St John's (1997), an insertion between Rickman and Hutchinson's New Court (1825-31) and the Cripps Building by Powell and Moya (1963-67). Boston managed to show sympathy for both neighbours in a design which is intricate, picturesque and self-effacing, housing a music room and other functions.
 
−
 
 
−
Saunders Boston designed Black Swan House, London (1975), a riverside building for the Worshipful Company of Vintners which also received awards, but has since been demolished. In 1987, Peter Boston sold his practice to his senior staff, but he continued to take an active role until retiring as a consultant earlier this year.

−
In 1967, Peter Boston married Diana Robertson, the widow of a naval officer with two very young sons. When Lucy Boston died in 1990 at the end of a long and active life, Peter and Diana took responsibility for the Manor and its garden, to the delight and relief of those who knew and loved the house, opening it to visitors by appointment and making repairs to the structure.

"only now ... Mr. Barrie has put the part of his history covered by the play into a story, though his adventures in Kensington Gardens have already been told" [in prose, in The Little White Bird]; Peter Pan profits by the unusual sequence; praise for Bedford's illustrations but "rather too much reduced" and "hardly simple enough for their purpose"; "they are too good"

[29] Irish Times 12-13 9

daring, given the great success of the play [why?] "the first three editions were ordered before they were printed" [London ed., for UK and Ireland i suppose]; "the illustrations ... add very considerably to the beauty of the book"

"[JCH]'s new story for the young ... will contain a description of night life on a Southern plantation, and a chapter on "The Secrets of the Swamp", written from the point of view of the Negro, which tends to resolve all things into their elements by means of impersonation, the swamp losing in the process its topographical and geological features, and becoming a living, breathing, moving Thing." -- The Critic: a Weekly Review of Literature and the Arts (US weekly) 1897-09-11 p28 "Houghton, Mifflin & Co."


[92]

Predates The Story of Aaron. "It is the picture of the swamp life of a fugitive slave, but Aaron was more than a slave" --an Arab, superior in this way and that. Not merely a Harris invention, "there were several notable instances of similar characters in middle Georgia."
Rich Hudspeth, the teacher, is a version of William H. Seward [later a Republican Party leader and U.S. Secretary of State under Lincoln and Johnson], who spent several years in Putnam County, where the story is set. His knowledge of the south, and related sentiments, are rooted in the featured Abercrombie plantation, per the story.

-- review by Alfred C. Newell Atlanta Constitution 1897-10-17 p16

[93] The Scotsman 1897-10-18 p4 "Christmas Books" (London and York: Harper Brothers) Beside Aaron's friends and helpers, including animal story-tellers of book 3, "almost the most real and important personality is the Swamp--the great untracked canebrake on the Oconee river in Georgia, where Aaron, as a runaway slave, finds refuge." "great knowledge of the old plantation life and of negro and white character in the South, are to be had"

"With 24 full-page illustrations by Oliver Herford. Square 8vo."

In the Library of Congress catalog as of 2016-04-04, all four books have ^Main title^= "[...] edited by Rick Yancey", and all but the first "[title /] William James Henry ; edited by Rick Yancey". On the other hand, only the last has a ^Personal name^ Henry rather than Yancey, so that only the last is credited to Henry as a pseudonym of Yancey.

Will Henry is the boy narrator, apprentice to the monstrumologist Dr. Warthrop; William James Henry the Yancey pseudonym.

Questions raised by The Painted Wall

  • Pu Songling as co-author; what is the criterion?
Pu Songling like Brothers Grimm, and unlike H.C. Andersen, is credited with collecting folktales; folklorist rather than writer of literary fairy tales
Would it matter if Songling were an oral historian, naming particular folk who told him the tales? Songling as editor/author of a collection or anthology whose oral history subjects should be named as authors

The Lightning Thief cover art mixups

[179]
[180]
  • Rocco 2014 Cover: The Lightning Thief T1244491 "One in a set of 5 "new covers" for the Percy Jackson and the Olympians novels, announced by John Rocco in February 2014. The far left one-fifth of a single illustration spanning all five novels. Rocco was one previous creator of cover art for each of the five novels. John Rocco, "Percy Jackson gets new covers".

(no date; first comment dated 2014-02-28)

2014 Cover: The Sea of Monsters is no longer in the database except as represented in omnibus covers. The note above should be used for all of the new COVERART Titles as they do appear in the database.


Diagnosis:

Amazon falsely, perhaps deceptively shows later cover images on its page for these novels --perhaps later printings with different cover art, for the "first paperback edition" as defined by the industry

  • first ppb editions at Amazon: 1 2 3 4 5

Now visit and see these are nominally first US paperback editions, 2006 to 2011. Perhaps the one ISBN is still in use and the official edition is the same, but the cover is new and Amazon shows the new cover images.

  • 1st dates per WP: 2005-07-01, 2006-04-01, 2007-05-01, 2008-05-06, 2009-05-05 (all citing Kirkus, most another source too)

Delete Image URL because it targets Amazon's cover image for the current/recent edition/printing, which incorporates the 2014 Rocco illustration of the novel. If I understand correctly, this URL will drop out of the database except for the submitted Note; the linked cover image will no longer be displayed as one of <a href="http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/titlecovers.cgi?180971">All Covers for The Sea of Monsters</a>. In order to confirm or correct my understanding, I will look now to add the current edition as a new publication.


At Amazon I find the current cover illustrations of Percy Jackson novels (US eds., illus. John Rocco) displayed only for editions for which Amazons early publication dates, presumably because every product now in print is treated as a later "printing" of an early edition rather than as a later edition.

There is true even for the omnibus editions, presumably both CD and print, for which Amazon does provide a complex set of 7 images. Select "See all 7 images" and observe that thumbnails for the five novels cover images are square in shape but do not carry text that identifies them as audio editions. Select one of the five novels cover images and observe that the big target images are rectangular in shape as for books.

[186] (omnibus edition; no direct link to the complex cover image "set of 7" is available, afaik)
[187] (The Sea of Monsters cover image in that set)

Anyway, the latter is evidently a very large, high-resolution image. I wonder whether it is considered appropriate for target here.

Jesse Berns(tein), The Sea of Monsters

Read by Jesse Berns --first audio cassette 110611; and first audio CD 110631
Read by Jesse Bernstein --later audio CD, used for first audio CD by mistake 83181, []; ALSO another work, see Notes 414512

what's the point?

On the main point, for The Sea of Monsters and nine other Percy Jackson novels, I will work on this from the direction of COVERART records. As for The Book of Three under guidance and moderator approval of Mhhutchins, I will merge multiple COVERART records that now represent multiple uses of one illustration (art) in cover designs of multiple publications. All with the date of earliest known publication in whose cover design the artwork is incorporated.
The Book of Three Evaline Ness 1964 including one radically different 2014 cover design (whose image is linked)
proposed The Sea of Monsters John Rocco 2006


As an aside, I wonder whether moderators (not I) are able to check whether the field Image URL has been revised since a publication record was primary verified? (I know that the manual urges editors to be cautious about revising primary verified records, and to give notice at the user pages of the primary verifiers before/when they submit such revisions, and that some moderators check for such notices before they approve such submissions.)
On the main point, refer to The Sea Monsters (Title 180971. The list of publications begins with eight that carry 2006 and 2007 publication dates including 7 for U.S. editions (and there is no U.S. edition with "date unknown"). I know that John Rocco's contemporary illustration of the novel is the one used on covers whose images we now link to the 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 8th of those publication records; and that the same artist's 2014 illustration is the one used on covers whose images we now link to the 1st, 3rd, and 7th of those publication records (the 4th is a U.K. edition).
Regarding the 7th Publication 546581, I infer from the Note that the source of our error is 2015 reliance on Amazon --which commonly, as in this instance, displays current cover images; and, i suppose, latest in-print cover images for editions that are out-of-print-- for a 2007-04-01 "edition" (not Amazon's term and not necessarily what ISFDB or the publisher or I would call an edition).
Regarding our 1st and 3rd publication records for this novel, I feel certain that the source of our error is similar, if not identical. Those two records acknowledge Amazon for the linked cover images but donot cite Amazon in Notes. For the 1st (the first publication of the novel, I believe) we cite OCLC 64664383 but that page is currently illustrated with a cover image that uses the 2006 Rocco artwork.

delete Image URL whose target shows front cover that incorporates the 2014 Rocco illustration (coverart presumably the 2006 Rocco but don't bother)

Denouement 2015-12-31

The first sentence of a rule cannot define its scope. Nor can any other part of the text without explicit wording that addresses the scope. If the rule pertains only to works published in magazines then the heading needs to indicate that this Exception is specific to magazines. If your interpretation of the rule is valid, its heading should begin "Exception for works published in magazines", or similarly such as "a work published in a magazine", etc.
Is any of this written up clearly anywhere in the "manual"? When content is deemed to This point concerns internal title pages, not title pages of books but title pages of contents of books --including the novels itself for a book that contains almost nothing but one novel; also a title page for part one of a novel if the novel is published in two books, or in one book that contains part one and part two, book one and book two, etc. Sometimes there is a page with nothing but a roman numeral such "I" representing book one, part one, chapter one, section one, whatever. Are there indeed many novels published with internal title pages that precede some front material?
Take a recent edition of The Return of the King off the shelf (of local public library). ISFDB deems this book a NOVEL. The content of the "novel" may or may not be deemed to begin on page 755 where the text of its first chapter begins, as stated in its table contents. The previous printed sheet, recto, two pages back at [753], states "Book Five". The printed sheet previous to that one, recto, or [751], states "The Return of the King // Being the third part of [yada yada yada]". Everything else (including "Synopsis" of preceding volumes) is front material --or earlier front material if we consider [751-54] front material. (By the way, I don't know the page number on which the preceding volume The Two Towers ends (at least 750 and 754 must be candidates), nor do we have two consecutive volumes from any one edition on the shelf at the moment. But this is tangential, as "by the way" implies.)

The strongly negative review (certainly bottom 5% of more than 100 Kirkus reviews I have read) begins with several lines (until the ellipsis) about the heart of the final chapter in this first edition. O'Brien wrote an alternative, much shorter final chapter for the first British edition. They appear as the final two chapters, p248-59 and p260-63, in a later U.S. edition (Collier Books, 1988).

Add Pub done

(Note to Moderator) "This is the correct David Mitchell per "About the introducer"; LeGuin links a recent article/review by Mitchell in The Guardian "David Mitchell on Earthsea – a rival to Tolkien and George RR Martin" [Martin=Westeros] but we don't do anything with that as far as I know. The last line weakly supports year 2015 for the ignorant such as me; may actually date the selection for those who know the newspaper Books section well."

Indeed, Le Guin links this article as if it were the Introduction verbatim.

btw Mitchell: "Earthsea is a fantasy world, and proud of it, mapped by its creator in 1966–7 on a large sheet of butcher’s paper with crayons in a house full of young children."

From a glance at a friend's copy of the book I know that it includes a new essay by Le Guin ("Afterword" or whatever), which notes that the illustrations by Lupton are the first to match her Earthsea (not "whitewash"), or first since the first ed. woodcuts (woodcuts too coarse for whitewash imo).

The Independent // Obituary: Peter Boston // Alan Powers // Tuesday 30 November 1999

first 3 pars

A BOY holds a lantern in the bows of a boat, rowed by an old man between the trees of a flooded garden, to a tall single-gabled house beyond. This image, the cover to the original edition of The Children of Green Knowe, was drawn by Peter Boston as one of the illustrations to the first children's story written by his mother, Lucy Boston, in 1954. The fictional boy, Tolly, was based on himself.

More Green Knowe books were published, up to The Stones of Green Knowe (1976), all with Peter's atmospheric but sharply detailed line drawings and scraperboards. He also illustrated works by his mother outside the Green Knowe canon, such as The Sea Egg (1967), and drew the jackets for her adult novels Yew Hall (1954) and Persephone (1969). All his illustrations showed an understanding of the narrative immediacy of the texts, and help the reader to enter their world of imagination and deeper meaning.

The house which inspired them was the Manor, Hemingford Grey, a rare Norman stone house which Lucy Boston bought shortly before the outbreak of war in 1939. Peter, her only child, was at King's College, Cambridge, reading Architecture, to which he had transferred from Engineering. Peter's father, Harold Boston, left his wife in 1935, and Peter shared his time between them. Lucy went to Austria and Italy to study painting but returned to England, taking lodgings in King's Parade to be near her son. They worked on the Manor together, pulling away later accretions to the house with their own hands, guided by instinct, and aware of the palpable presences in its rooms which later inspired the books.

1st printing, presumed (novel reviewed 1895-12 but <a href="http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?279381">one 1896 publication per title page</a> may be the 1st printing)

  • Some information from The Whole Science Fiction Data Base No. 3 and ABEbooks.
  • Tuck lists the first printing as 1896, others 1895
  • Reginald1: 00829.
  • Bleiler The Guide to Supernatural Fiction: 89.
  • $1.00 reported somewhere
  • OCLC: <a href="http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/814233">814233</a>.
  • Publ date and price from advertisement by the publisher N-Y Tribune 1895-11-27 p8 "Published To-Day by Harper Brothers" (four listed); "16mo. Cloth, Ornamental, $1.25"

Yet the 1st printing may state 1896 on the title page; ie, some 1896 ed. may be the 1st ed., 1st printing. HathiTrust Digital Library (HDL) holds five copies as 1896 (<a href="https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/001027045">HDL catalog record</a>), none 1895. Among them the first and last title pages state 1896; the others, all from Harvard University, t.p. state no date. All three appear to be later printings. (The 2nd and 4th as listed at HDL 2016-08-30 contain, p[vii], only 8 plates which do not include the favorite illustration of one 1895 reviewer. The 3rd and 4th contain, p173 and copyright page respectively, lists that include this title and its first sequel, both $1.25.)

[24] represents the frontispiece and 23 plates not included in the pagination--those 24 leaves contained, and listed p[vii]-viii in the 1st, 3rd, 5th of five HDL copies as listed 2016-08-30. It is not certain that any of these is a copy of the 1st printing, discussed above.

Barnes updated her Narnia illustrations in 1999 or so, at least by coloring them. I recall reading that U.S. editions had included fewer illustrations, so that the appearance of entirely new illustrations in the 1999 set may be an illusion for American eyes only.

2 3 4 6 --1999 Revised hc Henry Holt (Ness cover art)
1 3 5 --2006 Wyatt cover art
1 --2014 and later 50th anniversary edition (two vols extant)

The novels carry five distinct maps (c) Evaline Ness 1964 to 1968. Book 6 carries map 5.

In the database all 5 maps under 6 titles are attributed to Evaline Ness with 1964 to 1968 dates (as contents of those 8 of 14 "recent" editions examined).

1 2 3 4 5 6

5 maps are attributed to uncredited with 1964 to 1968 dates (as contents of the 1991 Prydain omnibus).

1 2 3 4 5

By retaining distinct records until the maps are examined and judged to be identical (same artwork), we guard against such problems as [a] existence of two maps with 1964 copyright used in later editions of The Book of Three and [b] error by the omnibus compiler in claiming 1964 copyright for the map that illustrates The Book of Three in that volume.


About the Author

Evidently there are seven variants of one closing ESSAY "About the Author". The basic appears in 1999 book 6 and in the Square Fish edition (some?) of the 2006 Wyatt cover art set. Books 1-5 in the 1999 set prepend one or two pertinent paragraphs to the basic. Book 1 in the 50th anniversary inserts Alexander's lifespan in the lead, "Lloyd Alexander (1924-2007)". In the 2006 David Wyatt cover art Henry Holt paperback ed. (rather than Square Fish ed.), the novel-specific 1999 About the Author appears.


Close examination of the Wyatt set 1 3 5 shows that only The Book of Three "First Square Fish Edition June 2011" omits the first paragraph of About the Author and thus matches 1999 book 6 rather than 1999 book 1. The Henry Holt ppb ed. book 3 printed September 2010 and the "First Square Fish Edition August 2011" book 5 both include such a prefix and are identical to About the Author in those volumes of the 1999 set.
