BOOKS FROM THE LIBRARY OF THE CRUISING ASSOCIATION
The Cruising Association (CA) was formed in 1908 following an advertisement in the Yachting Weekly:-
I am sure you will permit me to beg a little space in your valuable paper to ventilate a long-standing grievance among yachtsmen and to suggest a feasible remedy. I allude to the iniquitous overcharging so prevalent along our shores among the longshoremen of the land shark variety. What Corinthian yachtsman has not experienced the keenness of the teeth of these vultures! Their plausible yarns of having, at imminent risk to their precious lives, rescued a boat which according to their story, had broken adrift from her moorings or tripped her anchor, etc.., etc. Also the fabulous prices charged to strangers for moorings and, worst of all, for rowing them ashore or putting them on board again. I know of more than one place where the anchorage is but 50-70 yards from the shore, but the local blood-sucker will not put the unfortunate yachtsman ashore under 2 shillings, apart from putting him on board again. Surely it would be possible to form some Union as obtains in the cycle and motor world to compile a register of honest boatmen at the various ports who would, I feel sure, consent to work or supply moorings at a standard fee, in return for the advertisement which they would thus receive, and a most important benefit would thus be obtained at a very small cost. Claude Worth was a founder member and other early members included Cowper, of ‘Sailing Tours’, and Arthur Ransome. The aims of the organisation quickly grew to encompass all aspects of small yacht cruising. The growth of the library, as part of the service to members, followed. To this day the CA remains a campaigning organisation on behalf of the sailing community but the range of services has expanded far beyond the original vision. Many activities are now carried out via the CA website and its related App.
force behind the library for half a century. Much of the archive collection was put together by him personally and many other volumes were acquired as a result of Hanson’s rule (now no longer in force) that new members must donate a book on joining the organisation. Some six hundred of the finest and earliest volumes are now in the possession of Cambridge University Library where they are stored as the Hanson Collection of the Cruising Association. The CA Library and chart collection at Limehouse remains the UK’s most comprehensive reference library for the cruising yachtsman or yachtswoman. However, with new volumes being added to keep the collection relevent, limitations of space necessitate the release of some older books for sale to collectors. The CA is the UK’s leading organisation for cruising sailors, providing a global network of services, information, help and advice.
The CA’s inspired founding father, Herbert J Hanson, was the driving

Note: “This is an exceedingly rare, folio-size map of Africa by Gerard de Jode. It is clearly based on the famous eight sheet Giacomo Gastaldi wall map of Africa of 1564. Within the title, De Jode recognises Gastaldi as the author of this work (“Autore M. Iacobo Castoldo”). As De Jode was represented at the important Frankfurt Book Fair where he bought and sold maps, he possibly obtained a copy of the Gastaldi wall map of Africa during one of these fairs. Other than reducing Gastaldi’s heavily detailed, eight-sheet map to one folio-sized map, thus omitting numerous text passages and place names, the basic outline for Africa and its hydrographical and topographic features are the same. Koeman (1967-71) theorizes that De Jode may have been inspired to issue his own atlas, based on the immediate success of Abraham Ortelius’ Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. It is therefore likely that this map of Africa may have been prepared sometime after 1570, but before 1578, with the intention that it would eventually be included in his own atlas pending De Jode’s receipt of a publisher’s privilege intended to prevent unauthorized copying of his maps. Although De Jode attempted to receive a royal privilege starting in about 1573, he was not to be granted his royal privilege until 1577. Prior to 1578, it appears that De Jode printed a number of separate,
folio-size maps without text on the verso while he waited for his privilege. It is likely that the second state of De Jode’s map of Africa, with the addition of the “cum privilegio” at the bottom right within the title cartouche below the De Jode imprint, was prepared just before the publication of De Jode’s Speculum Orbis Terrarum in 1578. The map was engraved by Johannes and Lucas van Deutecum (with the imprint at bottom of Ioannes a Deutecum / Lucas a Deutecum / fecerunt.) De Jode’s atlas was not a financial success and no other editions were published. In total, a dozen or so examples of his atlas are said to have survived. Consequently, all maps by Gerard de Jode are quite rare. A revised map of Africa, using a new copperplate, was issued in 1593 by his son, Cornelis. This new map was included in Cornelis De Jode’s atlas of 1593, the Speculum Orbis Terrae. The present map would appear to be an intermediate state between Betz’s 14.1 First state of 1573, and 14.2 Second State 1578 which calls for “cum privilegio” in the title cartouche and Latin text on verso.

Note: In “Haemastatique” is recorded Hales’s invention of the manometer, with which he was the first to measure blood pressure. His work is the greatest single contribution to our knowledge of the vascular system after Harvey. In “La statiques des vegetaux” Hales studied the movement of sap in plants and discovered what is now known as root pressure, and also that plants take carbon dioxide from the air as an essential nutrient. Hales’s work on the analysis of air led to his invention of artificial ventilation.

[Property of the Trustees of Lord Gretton] Note: A naval log by an exceptional Scottish surveryor and cartographer. Captain David Ewen Bartholomew, CB (c. 1767 - 1821) was an officer of the British Royal Navy and Merchant Navy, who rose from a poor background to become a post captain and prominent surveyor and cartographer, and was the first British man to map numerous sections of the South American, Arabian and African coastlines. He was born into a poor family in Linlithgowshire, was press-ganged twice, once at the instigation of the First Lord of the Admiralty, Lord St. Vincent, served in various naval engagments, and in 1802 was in charge of H.M.S. Romney’s chronometers during a voyage to the Red Sea. Bartholomew’s abilities as a surveyor and cartographer were highly regarded and, later in his career, he conducted important surveys of the Argentine, Persian and West African coasts. Bartholomew was also considered exceptional for his rise from an impressed sailor to post captain at a time when this was almost impossible to achieve. £1,000-1,500

Moraes has been dubbed, “...one of the earliest outstanding photographers in Angola...” [Dias] and was a successor of the Moraes family photographic firm established in Luanda in the 1860s. Africa Occidental was first published in monthly installments from 1882, before being compiled into these four volumes by Lisbon publisher David Corazzi between 1885 and 1888. Cunha Moraes’s aim was to show interesting anthropological studies of Lunada’s daily life, in order to attract more Portuguese settlers to the area. Indeed, the work is dedicated to Portuguese explorers and is possibly the first study to, “...explicitly...document through individual portraits the social and racial contrasts within Luanda’s daily life...” [Dias, Jill R.

Spectropia, or surprising spectral illustrations showing ghosts everywhere and of any colour. London: Griffith & Farran, 1864. First edition, 4to, 16 hand-coloured illustrations designed to create optical illusions of ghosts, original cloth-backed pictorial boards Provenance: Property of the Trustees of Lord Gretton Note: J.H. Brown was so shocked by growing public interest in spiritualism, a “mental epidemic” as he called it, that in the second half of the nineteenth century he published Spectropia. The book’s aim was to demonstrate, “...some of the many ways in which our senses may be deceived, and that, in fact, no so-called ghost has ever appeared, without it being referable either to mental or psychological deception...” The book requires the reader to stare at an image for 15 to 30 seconds before looking at a surface in a darkened room. The image should be projected onto this surface, having been retained briefly in the visual cortex of the reader’s brain. Later, in 1912, Max Wertheimer would scientifically prove the existence of this kind of optical illusion, naming it the ‘Phi Phenomenon’. £150-200

STANDARD TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE Lyon & Turnbull carries on business with bidders, buyers and all those present in the auction room prior to, or in connection, with a sale on the following General Conditions and on such other terms, conditions and notices as may be referred to herein. 1. DEFINITIONS In these Conditions: (a) “Auctioneer” means the firm of Lyon & Turnbull or its authorised auctioneer, as appropriate; (b) “deliberate forgery” means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source but which is unequivocally described in the catalogue as being the work of a particular creator and which, at the date of the sale, had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description; (c) “hammer price” means the level of bidding reached (at or above any reserve) when the auctioneer brings down the hammer; (d) “terms of consignment” means the stipulated terms and rates of commission on which Lyon & Turnbull accepts instructions from sellers or their agents; (e) “total amount due” means the hammer price in respect of the lot sold together with any premium, Value Added Tax chargeable and any additional charges payable by a defaulting buyer under these Conditions; (f) “sale proceeds” means the net amount due to the seller, being the hammer price of the lot sold less commission at the stated rate, Value Added Tax chargeable and any other amounts due to us by the seller in whatever capacity and however arising; (g) “You”, “Your”, etc. refer to the buyer as identified in Condition 2. (h) The singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate. 2. BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid, which must be raised before the next lot is offered, shall be settled at the auctioneer’s absolute discretion. (c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals. (d) Once made, no bid may be withdrawn. (e) Our right to bid on behalf of the seller is expressly reserved up to the amount of any reserve and the right to refuse any bid is also reserved. 3. INCREMENTS Bidding increments shall be at the auctioneer’s sole discretion. 4. THE PURCHASE PRICE The buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon. 25% up to £25,000 / 20% thereafter. VAT will be charged on the premium at the rate imposed by law. 5. VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with an asterisk (*) or dagger (†). Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale
112
and is payable by buyers of relevant lots.
9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY
6. PAYMENT
All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale.
(1) Immediately a lot is sold you will: (a) pay to us the total amount due in cash or in such other way as is agreed by us. We accept cash, bank transfer (details on request), Switch or Debit Cards and Visa or MasterCard (please note there is a surcharge of 2% (VAT included) when using credit cards). We do not accept American Express. (2) any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing from you to us on any account whatever without regard to any directions of you or your agent, whether express or implied. 7. TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES (1) The ownership of any lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due. (2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than four working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment after which you shall be responsible for any removal, storage and other associated charges. (3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for. (4) It is the buyer’s responsibility to ascertain collection procedures, particularly if the sale is not being held at our main saleroom and the potential storage charges for lots not collected by the appropriate time. 8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on their behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so arising shall belong to the seller; (d) to remove, store and insure the lot at your expense and, in the case of storage, either at our premises or elsewhere; (e) to charge interest at a rate of 1.5% per month above the current base rate on the total amount due, to the extent it remains unpaid for more than four working days after the sale; (f) to retain that or any other lot sold to you until you pay the total amount due; (g) to reject or ignore bids from you or your agent at future auctions or to impose conditions before any such bids shall be accepted; (h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other lots due or in future becoming due to you towards the settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a lien (that is a right to retain possession of) any of your property in our possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied. (2) We shall, as agent for the seller and on their behalf pursue these rights and remedies only as far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these Conditions
10. COMMISSION BIDS While prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer or our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and to you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 12. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers. 13. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the lot. 14. STANDARD VENDOR FEES AND CHARGES (Subject to VAT) (1) Commission: 15% of the first £3000 and 10% thereafter is charged on the selling price of each lot (subject to a minimum charge of £30). Loss and damage warranty: 1.5% on value of lots sold. Photography: max £40 mono per lot, max £250 colour. Internet Marketing Service: £10 per lot. (2) If a vendor wishes to withdraw a lot organized for sale, a withdrawal fee will apply; (a) If withdrawn over 28 working days prior to the sale, this will be charged at 10% of the mid estimate along with any ancilliary incurred (such as photography), all subject to VAT at the current rate. (b) If withdrawn within 28 working days of the sale, this will be charged at 20% of the mid estimate along with any ancilliary incurred (such as photography), all subject to VAT at the current rate. 15. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) While we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion.
