Publishers' Binding Thursday
It's an Arts and Crafts Publishers' Binding Thursday this week, with A Book of Old English Ballads featuring illustrations by American painter, illustrator, and author George Wharton Edwards. Published in New York by the Macmillan Company, the book includes an introduction by American essayist, critic, and editor Hamilton W. Mabie. The illustrations and cover are done in the Arts and Crafts style, which flourished between 1880 and 1920. This book was published in 1896 at the height of the Arts and Crafts movement.
The cover has the same rather ornate design as the title page, which features a harpist playing under a lit lamp. The illustrations are detailed and the decorations equally so. The spine features the title, illustrator, and introducer in ornate fonts.

Las Vegas 1910s-1920s - Facing east over South Main & Bonneville in a series of photo-postcards each taken from the ice house.
In 1912 a group of Las Vegas women rallied to plant 2,000 mesquite trees in downtown Las Vegas to offer shade and beauty to the city's newly oiled trees. The Mesquite Club grew from that event.
1. Early-20s. The large building on the far left is the Clark County Courthouse, built in ‘14. Postcard from the George Wharton James Papers, UNR.
2. Early-20s. Postcard from Elbert Edwards Photograph Collection (PH-00214), UNLV Special Collections.
3. Wharton Drug store postcard 1910s, c. ‘11-‘15. Two blocks in the distance are the company houses, aka Railroad Cottages, east of 2nd St (Casino Center) between Clark and Garces. Back of postcard.
4. 1910s, “before the shade trees were all planet and grown up.” The far-right in the row of railroad cottages in the distance is 629 S Casino Center Blvd.
Mesquite Club. Las Vegas Age, 1/13/12 p1, p6; Florence Lee Jones. Mesquite Club Planted Trees, First Shade for Vegas. Review-Journal, 7/1/46.

George Wharton Edwards (1859-1950), “A Book of Old English Love Songs”, 1897 Love is the only impetus that is sufficiently overwhelming to force us to leave the comfortable shelter of our well-armed individuality, shed the impregnable shell of self-sufficiency, and crawl out nakedly into the danger zone beyond the melting pot where individuality is purified into personhood. Mark Patrick Hederman OSB in Manikon Eros: Mad Crazy Love

The Douai Martyrs is a name applied by the Catholic Church to 158 Catholic priests trained in the English College at Douai, France, who were executed by the English state between 1577 and 1680.[2]
History
Having completed their training at Douai, many returned to England and Wales with the intent to minister to the Catholic population. Under the Jesuits, etc. Act 1584 the presence of a priest within the realm was considered high treason. Missionaries from Douai were looked upon as a papal agents intent on overthrowing the queen. Many were arrested under charges of treason and conspiracy, resulting in torture and execution. In total, 158 members of Douai College were martyred between the years 1577 and 1680.[1] The first was Cuthbert Mayne, executed at Launceston, Cornwall on the 29 November 1577. [3] The last was Thomas Thwing, hanged, drawn, and quartered at York in October 1680.[4] Each time the news of another execution reached the College, a Solemn Mass of thanksgiving was sung.
Many people risked their lives during this period by assisting them, which was also prohibited under the Act. A number of the "seminary priests" from Douai were executed at a three-sided gallows at Tyburn near the present-day Marble Arch. A plaque to the "Catholic martyrs" executed at Tyburn in the period 1535 - 1681 is located at 8 Hyde Park Place, the site of Tyburn convent.[5]
They were beatified between 1886, 1929 and 1987, and only 20 were canonized in 1970. Today, British Catholic dioceses celebrate their feast day on 29 October.[1]
