My Dear Hugh: Letters From Richard Cobb To Hugh Trevorroper And Others,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Richard Cobb was one of the most distinguished British historians of the twentieth century. A professor at Oxford, a multiple prizewinner, author of numerous books and innumerable essays and reviews, he was proudest of all to be described as a Parisian. He was unconventional, anarchic and almost impossibly erudite.Somehow he managed in the course of a life of apparently unremitting grandeur to write letters. They were scratchy, iconoclastic, funny, indiscreet, vivid, fluent, and occasionally brilliant setpieces of descriptive or historical reporting. The sight of one of his illtyped missives in a blue Basildon Bond envelope was always a promise of pleasure, and usually of instruction, frequently an invitation to a feast of scurrilous gossip, and an excuse to put off daytoday concerns for a while. He wrote about politicians, the royal family, fellow academics and journalists, and, of course, mutual friends.The complete letters would fill many volumes, but here is a selection of the best, made by Tim Heald, who was taught by Cobb at university, and corresponded with him intermittently for the next thirty years.
