Etat : near fine. 1st Edition. 459pp. Octavo. Black cloth boards with gold gilt lettering stamped to the spine. Very minor bumping to the bottom edge of the boards and spine. Illustrated with numerous plates from B/W photographs and maps in text. Illustrated dust jacket is not price clipped; minor sun fading to the spine. Signed by Thesiger on the title page, where he has also crossed out the printed version of his name. Overall, a near fine copy with a near fine dust jacket. A wonderfully well preserved and signed copy of Thesiger's autobiography. This book gives some insight into the life of a very adventurous and daring man who, as the quote from the back of the dust jacket by David Attenborough attests, was one of the greatest explorers of the 20th century.

Livre
First paperback edition. Inscribed 'To Juanita Wilfred Thesiger May 20th 1994 What an interesting afternoon we have just had together'; loosely-inserted folded interview with Thesiger by Sian Powell excised from The Australian newspaper and docketed in typescript at the foot 'The Week-end Australian. 2nd. January 1999'). 8vo. original paperback. A very good copy. The first edition of The Life of My Choice was published in May 1987, and the critical and approval it received was matched by Thesiger's own judgement of the book, as Alexander Maitland records: '[a]t the age of ninety he stated without a moment's hesitation: "The books that have really mattered to me have been Arabian Sands, The Marsh Arabs and The Life of My Choice"' (Wilfred Thesiger. The Life of the Great Explorer (London, 2006), p. 400). The first paperback edition was issued in the following year, and this copy was inscribed by Thesiger to Juanita Carberry in 1994. Juanita Carberry was the daughter of John Evans Carberry, 10th Lord Carbery of Castle Freke, who had settled in Kenya in the 1920s and married as his second wife the aviatrix Maia Anderson, the mother of Juanita (there is some doubt as to whether Carberry was Juanita's biological father). Juanita 'grew up inKenyaamong wild animals and domesticated creatures that included tame mongooses, cheetahs and a chimpanzee. Her human playmates taught her their language and games, and she spoke fluent Swahili until she died' (Felicia Ruperti, 'Juanita Carberry Obituary', The Guardian, 2 September 2013) but her childhood was overshadowed by her mother's death when Juanita was three and John Carberry's cruelty to his daughter. In 1941 the teenaged Juanita became caught up in the aftermath of the fatal shooting of the Earl of Errol in 'Happy Valley'. Errol had been having an affair with Diana Delves Broughton, whose husband Sir Jock Delves Broughton was tried for the murder, and Juanita was interviewed as a witness, but, due to non-cooperation with the police, she was not called as a witness and Delves Broughton was acquitted (Juanita would state, many years later, that he had confessed to Errol's killing). At the age of fifteen Juanita left home and in 1943, aged seventeen, she joined the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (FANY) as a dispatch rider, and embarked on an adventurous life which would take her around the world. In 1946 she became one of only a handful of women to join the Merchant Navy, serving as a captain's steward in British and Norwegian cargo ships, and in the 1960s she left the service and returned to Kenya, where she settled in Mombasa and worked as an inspector of livestock for the World Society for the Protection ofAnimals.Wilfred Thesiger had settled in northern Kenya in 1977, near the township of Maralal, and for some nine months of every year he would live there, writing in The Life of My Choice that '[i]n this age of change, revolution, and instability, I am always thankful for my home in Kenya, which is one country that since its independence in 1963 has experienced no disruption' (pp. 432-433). It seems likely that this volume was inscribed to Juanita Carberry in Kenya in May 1994, shortly before Thesiger finally left Kenya in October 1994 and returned to England, where he settled and would spend his last years. Cf. P.N. Grover, 'Bibliography of Works by Sir Wilfred Thesiger', p. 271 (first ed.).
