Letters of Marshall Mcluhan

Oxford University Press, 1987. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. ISBN: 0195405943. First Edition, First Printing. Orange Hardcovers, black titles to the spine. In Fine condition, a sound binding, bright, unmarked pages. The DJ Is unclipped, in Fine+ condition. "McLuhan corresponded with a vast number of people, from Hubert Humphrey and Jimmy Carter to popular advice columnist Ann Landers. Indeed, his correspondents amount to a Who's Who of western culture, both high and low, including Duke Ellington, Woody Allen, Jacques Maritain, Rollo May, Susan Sontag, Eugene Ionesco, Wyndham Lewis, Ezra Pound, and Bob Newhart. At times playful and at times profound, his letters offer an invaluable commentary on McLuhan's work and, in some instances, the most lucid and detailed explanation of his ideas available. A brilliant letter-writer and a genial man who made friends all over the world, Marshall McLuhan left behind a correspondence that brims with insight, good humor, and the love of language and word play. His letters offer an invaluable glimpse of the private life and inner thoughts of one of the great minds of the twentieth century." ; 7.6 X 5.0 X 0.6 inches; 576 pages. Fine+ .

Cartier Discovers the St. Lawrence

London, Oxford University Press, 1970. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. pp. 32. Slim small 4to. Publisher's teal cloth over boards, gilt lettering to the spine. Gorgeously illustrated with Laszlo's imaginative, evocative, and colourful artwork. Exceptionally well-preserved with no detectable flaws to the cloth extremities, neat ink name to the corner of the ffep, else, contents equally without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked pages and firm, sound binding; near fine and housed in near fine lightly rubbed, unclipped, dustjacket (now housed in protective mylar cover). Overall, near fine. A lovely copy through-and-through. Scarce in commerce in this edition, and state. This is the story of Jacques Cartier, the famous sixteenth-century French navigator, and his three voyages of discovery to North America: in 1534, when he explored the Gulf of St. Lawrence in search of a passage to Asia, and in 1535 and 1541 when he sailed up the St. Lawrence River. Based on the journal of voyages and containing many extracts from it, the book descrives not only Cartier's considerable achievement, but also the hardships of the undertaking, the cold and disease, and the encounters - not always amicable - with the Indians who lived along the river. William Toye's account is simple and straightforward, but brings to life for English readers the colour incidents of the first momentous penetration of the great river and the North American interior, and the characters of the men who did it. Laszlo Gal's large, imaginative, and richly coloured illustrations convey too the sense of life and adventure underlying Cartier's great undertaking.

We watch Quebec grow from a lonely trading-post to a famous city; we take part in the battles of the Plains of Abraham and Windmill Point; we see the river's first bridge go up at Montreal, and an ice-railway join its shores; we share in the disasters, celebrations, and daily life of the people, and in the most impressive event of all--the building of a deep-water highway and the harnessing of the river's fall for hydroelectric power.
