Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This specially updated edition, released to mark the passing of the late and much-missed monarch, is a collection of warm, amusing recollections from the royal household celebratingthe lighter side of palace life. What do you do? a guest inquired of the Queen at a Buckingham Palace garden party. I had no idea what to say, the Queen told friends afterwards. As the longest reigning monarch of this realm, the Queen represented stability, hope and continuity. We loved her because she was always there, didnt make a fuss and was dedicated in her duty even in old age. But alongside her stoic and sensible exterior, she was also renowned for a playful and keen sense of humour, as seen when she delighted audiences all around the world by inviting Paddington Bear for tea to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee. How exactly did theQueen reactwhen she found her footman draped in her jewels? What did she do to amuse herself to while away the hours spentsitting for her portrait? How did she respond when faced with a plate full of Mexican food? This characterful, illustrated book answers these questions and poses many more in its affectionate celebration of the diverse personalities of the House of Windsor. Gathered together in this amusing tribute are a compendium of storieswhich provide access to theunique world of the royals. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Good. First Edition. A few illustrations, octavo, pp xii, 256, slight foxing, top edge stained, otherwise clean internally, green cloth very slightly worn, binding leaning slightly, a repaired tear to the spine head. [Blaikie (1750 -1838) was a Scottish botanist and gardener born in Edinburgh. Between 1775 and 1776 he was tasked by John Fothergill and William Pitcairn with travelling the Alps to collect and record rare species of plants. Whilst there he met Voltaire and travelled with Michel-Gabriel Paccard, who received later fame for achieving the first ascent of Mont Blanc. After briefly returning to Britain, Blaikie worked on the gardens of the Comte de Lauraguais in Normandy, before a failure to pay Blaikie ended his employment. From 1778 Blaikie passed into the employment of the Comte d'Artois, younger brother of Louis XVI and later to become Charles X. Blaikie designed the gardens of Bagatelle, modified by François-Joseph Bélanger to suit French tastes, and oversaw their planting. Whilst continuing to work for the Comte d'Artois, Blaikie created a garden for Sophie Arnould, the renowned opera singer and a lover of Bélanger. In 1780 the Duc de Chartres, who was later to become the Duc d'Orléans and finally Philippe Égalité, commissioned Blaikie to design some of his gardens including the Winter Garden at the Parc Monceau. The French Revolution financially ruined Blaikie with his previous employers unable to pay him, contracts drying up, his loss of money from rentes on the Hotel de Ville, and in 1792 his house being robbed with 50,000 francs worth of property lost. As a result he was forced to return to work as a bailiff for the Comte de Lauraguais, whose successor he had similar disputes over pay with following the Restoration. In 1826 Blaikie received a royal pension of 600 francs per annum secured by the new Duc d'Orléans, the future Louis Philippe I. He died in 1838 in his house on the rue de Vignes in Paris.].

Book First Edition
Couverture souple. Condition: Satisfaisant. Edition originale, Édition illustrée. Broché, couverture d'après une peinture de François Mutterer et imprimée en noir, *** in-8 de 24x16 cm, *** ouvrage traduit de l'anglais par Janine Barrier et annoté par J. Barrier et Monique Mosser, *** reproductions en noir & blanc dans le texte et à pleine page, *** en appendice, liste des plantes qui ont été récoltées sur les montagnes alpines, *** état correct (couverture légèrement manipulée - dos concave et insolé - quelques rousseurs surtout sur les tranches - nom manuscrit sur la page de faux-titre - intérieur en très bon état). *** Première édition française. *** 304 pages. ********** Thomas Blaikie (né le 2 mars 1751 à Corstorphine, près d'Édimbourg et mort le 19 juillet 1838 à Paris), jardinier botaniste écossais, entreprend la rédaction de son Journal à partir de 1775, lorsqu'il quitte Londres pour étudier la flore des Alpes suisses et françaises. *** Il note les péripéties quotidiennes de son voyage travers la France, dans un style naïf et plein verve. Blaikie commence immédiatement ses herborisations en se servant d'abord de la classification de Haller puis de celle de Linné et sa collection de plantes croît rapidement. *** En 1776, il devient le jardinier du comte de Lauraguais et du comte d'Artois. Très vite, il rencontre l'architecte du Prince, François-Joseph Bélanger, avec lequel il collabore aux travaux du domaine de "Maisons" puis, à partir de 1777, à ceux de la "Folie d'Artois" à Bagatelle. *** Le "Journal" nous permet alors de suivre la progression de l'aménagement des jardins, mais aussi de partager l'ambiance des divertissements de la Cour. Devenu la "coqueluche" de la haute aristocratie et de riches propriétaires, tous amateurs de "nouveaux jardins anglais à la mode", il est chargé des différents domaines appartenant au duc de Chartres : Monceau, Le Raincy, Saint Leu. *** Les dernières pages du "Journal" constituent un émouvant témoignage sur les débuts de la Révolution que Blaikie vit comme un acteur dont le sort touche de près les membres de la famille royale. *** La lecture du Journal de Blaikie éclaire d'un jour amusant les divergences de vues qui existaient alors entre Français et Anglais, en matière de jardins pittoresques ou paysagers. Il apparaît à la fois comme un important document d'histoire de la botanique, un témoignage indispensable concernant l'histoire des jardins de la fin du XVIIIème siècle mais aussi un récit d'aventures et, parfois, une rubrique "People" de la vie de la Cour. *** Bref, un grand fragment de vie d'un homme attachant dont l'enthousiasme, le talent et la sensibilité ne cessent de transparaître tout au long de ces pages, écrite comme on court les routes ou comme on jardine ! ***** L'Édition originale est : Diary a Scotch Gardener at the French Court at the End of the Eighteenth Century, Éditions George Routledge and Sons, London, 1931; Introduction de Francis Birrell. "Journal d'un jardinier écossais à la Cour de France à la fin du XVIIIème siècle" !!! ***.
