JONES, Brian.: LYTTON. Gilbert and Sullivan's Jester. , London. Basingstoke Books Ltd., 2005.With 28 photographs, many entirely new to modern readers. As far as I know, this is the first published biography of Henry Lytton. The Author covers his subject thoroughly with a well-researched reference section. It is a valuable source of information for the increasing number of universities and colleges where the operas are seen as a legitimate subject for study. In this copy there is a signed inscription on the Dedication Page from the Author "...In friendship's name..." quoting one of the affectionate phrases Lytton used when autographing his own book, "The Secrets of a Savoyard." 235pp. Pictorial wrappers. In Mint condition. 1 4120 5482 6. (Book ref. 10964) £23.00 The payment methods accepted by the seller, David Paramor , are shown in the right-hand column. |
