Wilson, A.N. Iris Murdoch - As I Knew Her
London Hutchinson 2003 0091742463 / 9780091742461 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Very Good
A Fine unmarked copy with age darkening to page edges with near Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. First edition, first printing. 275 pages. 25 illustrations. In 1988, Iris Murdoch asked the author to be her biographer. This book is a tribute to the novelist he knew for 30 years - this is not Iris Murdoch the Alzheimer's patient, but Iris the Murdoch the witty conversationalist, the emotional chaotic and, above all, the writer. Both sad and farcical, this completely personal attempt to set the record straight gives us back the fiercely intelligent novelist and professional philosopher, and will cause amusement as it ruffles feathers. **** NOT EX LIB ****

Wilson, A.N. Paul - The Mind of the Apostle
London Sinclair-Stevenson 1997 1856195422 / 9781856195423 First Hard Fine Good
A Fine unmarked copy with dustjacket which has two large repaired closed tears. 274 pages. 2 maps. Jesus was no Christian, and his friends made no effort to break away from Jesus's religion. What we call Christianity began with a Jew from Eastern Turkey known to the world as Paul of Tarsus. It is to Paul that the world can be grateful for making the Judaeo-Christian inheritance to non-Jews. This book tells a story not of a man who set out to found a new religion called Christianity but of a visionary Jew who had a revolutionary idea of what it meant to be Jewish, and of what was happening to the world in his own time, during the reign of the Emperor Nero.

Wilson, A.N. The Laird of Abbotsford - A View of Sir Walter Scott
Oxford Oxford University Press 1980 0192117564 / 9780192117564 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Fine Signed by Author
SIGNED BY AUTHOR to title page with dedication ' To John with all good wishes'. xvi + 197 pages. Loosely included is the Times obituary of Dame Jean Maxwell-Scott , the great-great-great grandaughter of Sir Walter Scott and who was devoted to the conservation of Abbotsford. A.N. Wilson's subtle, entertaining and frequently provocative critical biography, looks back through the indifference which has surrounded Scott in the 20th century and the distortions of his Victorian idolaters to recapture the freshness of Scott as he appeared to his contemporaries. A lively and contagiously enthusiastic reassessment of the writer who was, he believes, 'the greatest single imaginative genius of the 19th century', whose influence was felt not only in the field of literature, but also in the worlds of art, architecture, opera and domestic manners, and by figures as diverse as Byron and Queen Victoria, Dickens and Donizetti, Pugin and Victor Hugo.
