Funke, Sarah and William Beekman THIS PERPETUAL FIGHT: LOVE AND LOSS IN VIRGINIA WOOLFS INTIMATE CIRCLE.
New York The Grolier Club 2008 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover 152 pages
This book was created to accompany the Grolier Club exhibition held from September 16 to November 22, 2008. The books, images, letters, and manuscript material in this exhibition narrate the life and work of Virginia Woolf. They showcase the relationships with her parents, siblings, suitors, friends, lovers, and her husband Leonard Woolf. As many of these individuals significantly affected her life, their relationships were often reflected in her publications.

Many of the individuals who played a role in Woolf's life include Clive Bell, John Maynard Keynes, Saxon Sydney-Turner, Duncan Grant, Roger Fry, T.S. Eliot, Dora Carrington, and Leslie and Julia Stephen. Among this group of individuals, hundreds of books, works, and paintings were produced. This catalogue examines materials produced by Virginia Woolf that reveal the mutual enrichment of the group, especially in her most famous works including Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, and A Room of One's Own.

This Perpetual Fight includes 32 color and 16 black and white illustrations, and contains contributions from Deirdre Bair, Rachel Cohen, Ruth Gruber, Mark Hussey, Peter Stansky, Andrew Solomon, and Elizabeth Hartley Winthrop.

Gatch, Milton (editor) SO PRECIOUS A FOUNDATION: THE LIBRARY OF LEANDER VAN ESS AT THE BURKE LIBRARY OF UNION THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK.
New York The Grolier Club 1996 8 x 11 inches paperback 386 pages
The Library of Leander van Ess arrived in New York in 1838 and has since then reposed within the library of Union Theological Seminary. The collection was one of the most comprehensive theological libraries in the new world. An important step in nineteenth-century cultural and education history, it created the largest collection of incunabula west of the Atlantic Ocean at the time. Because of this, an exhibition was necessary, and one was held from September 17 to November 23, 1996.

Research for the exhibition revealed there were many books in the collection that reflected on the history of books and libraries in Germany. It also demonstrated that the collector, Leander van Ess, was an important figure for biblical translation as was as for collecting and scholarship. This catalogue explores van Ess's collection of Bibles in a number of languages, works on church history, ecclesiastical law, and medieval manuscripts.

The book is illustrated in black and white with four color illustrations and one colored fold-out plate. It contains contributions by Johannes Altenberend, Milton McC. Gatch and Paul Needham, and includes a brief biography of van Ess with introductory notes to the collection. It is written in both English and German.

Gatch, Milton McC. THE LIBRARY OF LEANDER VAN ESS AND THE EARLIEST AMERICAN COLLECTIONS OF REFORMATION PAMPHLETS.
BSA Occastional Publications, No.1 New York The Bibliographical Society of America 2007 8.5 x 11 inches paperback 212 pages
Reformation pamphlets (or "Flugschriften") were among the first rare book acquisitions of American libraries. Gatch traces the remarkable history of the Leander van Ess collection purchased by the Union Theological Seminary in 1838, the first and largest collection of these religious tracts to arrive in America. He notes how they were originally obtained by van Ess, a Catholic priest, translator of the Bible, and a former Benedictine monk, who built an impressive personal collection of books and manuscripts when monastic libraries were being dispersed during the Napoleonic wars. Gatch has also identified a significant group of pamphlets assembled at Wittenberg during the 1520s, Luther's most creative period. Never before accurately described, the surviving pamphlets from this collection are listed here in the order of van Ess's own catalogue, with a set of indexes to authors and printers, and with concordances to major bibliographical resources. Gatch reviews the history Reformation pamphlet collecting in the United States from these earliest efforts up to the beginning of the twentieth century, and reflects on how these primary resources were used (or neglected) by American church historians. An extensive bibliography and a detailed index of the introductory essays are included. Illustrated. Distributed for the Bibliographical Society of America.
