(Book #ID 8697)

Published by Robert Hale & Company, 63 Old Brompton Road, London First edition 1975. 1975.

First edition hard back black covers, silver titles. 192 pp. Author's first novel. SIGNED presentation copy from the author to William Price Turner, author of 'Solden's Women'. ' For Bill Turner-the man who said 'Why don't you think of writing a thriller? And then promptly defected from the ranks. Come back-we miss you! Warm Regards, Brian Marriner. September 1975'. Accompanied by a SIGNED and dated August 28th 1972, two page letter to Bill Turner: 'Dear Bill Turner, The last letter I had from you is dated 7th June 1966. A lot of water has gone under the bridge since then-to resurrect a cliche. At that time I wasn't long out of prison, and had made contact with Alfred Bradley. He sent a short story of mine to you for comment, and you were kind enough to write me a letter suggesting that since I had inside knowledge of prison conditions, I might do better writing a full length novel. There are plenty of reformed policemen doing nicely out of the thriller r[e]acket nowadays. The thing is, i[s] takes a certain amount of stamina to knock together a cool 60,000 words. Can you do it? Only you know. Well a brief resume of my career since then must include the information that in that time I have written two and a half novels. The first one was highly praised by all who rejected it, and I got nice letters from Bryan Forbes and others, speaking of it in glowing terms. The second book was 110,000 words long, and came back yesterday. The editor of Calders said It has plenty of good powerful stuff. You write extremely well. And then rejec[e]ted it on the grounds that its too long, and anyway, fiction dosent sell these days, unless you already have a 'name'. I am beginning to wonder exactly what one has to do to get published. Let me br truthful. In 1966 your suggestion that I might write a thriller made my lip curl. I was going to be a writer. I already had the scene blocked out in my mind where I went to Stockholm for the Nobel, and all the rest of it. Thriller writers were hacks, and so on. Since then, I have discovered Simenon, Ed McBain, J. D. MacDonald and also a book you recommended I read, the brilliant 'Skinner' by Hugh C. Rae. And what prompted this letter was the fact that I have just read 'Solden's Women' by one Bill Turner. Mr. Turner, I want to write thrillers. I know it isn't easy, that's why I want to meet you to discuss one or two ideas I have. Do you think we could possibly meet? I work nights, and am free any weekend, or all day Monday. Please excuse the mess on page one, one of my kids has just put sticky fingers on it'. Fine in Very Good dust wrapper with 1 mm surface rubs to spine tips and ends of upper panel, not price clipped.

Chingford | Military Aerodrome Later Temporary Civil Aerodrome. [Edited by C. M. Wightman]. Cartoons by G. Mockford, Charles E. Turner [Frederick Warren Merriam, R.N. 1880-1956]

(Book #ID 97455)

Published in House and Printed by F. W. Dimbleby & Sons, Times Office, 14 King Street, Richmond, Surrey First Edition July 7th 1917. 1917.

First and only edition in publisher's original wire stapled illustrated paper covers [soft back], illustrated advertisement to the rear cover. 8vo. 9¾'' x 7¼''. Military aerodrome later temporary civil aerodrome, RNAS Aeroplane School, RFC | RAF Training Depot Station, 138 Squadron (Avro 504Bs & 504Es Later Bristol F.2 Fighters). The first mention of this aerodrome is on 15th May 1915 when Flight Commander Hyde-Thomson (RNAS) was awarded Pilot Certificate No. 1245 flying a Bristol Biplane from here. He also listed flying a Wight Seaplane from CALSHOT. Between 1915 and 1919 it was used to train around 1,000 pilots before they were sent to Europe, shortly afterwards the aerodrome closed in 1919. This 'in-house' magazine named 'The Chingflier' had a short history and was published between October 1916 to February 1918. Contains 22 printed pages of text with monochrome illustrations and photographs throughout, including full-page cartoons specially drawn for 'The Chingflier' by G. Mockford and Charles E. Turner. Includes a full-page famous photograph of Frederick Warren Merriam whose claim to fame was becoming the first pilot to fly through the clouds. Merriam, then 34 years old, was an instructor at Brooklands Aerodrome near Weybridge in Surrey. On one occasion he crash-landed upside down in a sewage farm and emerged unhurt but stinking from the wreckage. Many years later the incident would become an inspiration for a scene in the comedy film 'Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines'. His favourite trick was to make low passes over his home near the air strip and if his legs were dangling out of the plane it was a sign to his wife that he would be home for lunch.
