The Selman-Troytt Appreciation Society is extremely excited to announce that the venerable publishing house of Old Street Publishing has decided to publish a compilation of extracts from Selman-Troytt's works, journals and correspondence!
The Selman-Troytt Papers is the first anthology of Selman-Troytt's writing, and includes many of his masterpieces of prose and observation, such as 'Social and Sexual Etiquette' and 'My First Involuntary Ejaculation'. It also features Selman-Troytt's fascinating correspondence with Oscar Wilde, Benjamin Disraeli and Sigmund Freud among other luminaries of the late Victorian age. A wealth of biographies and portraits illustrate the context in which he lived, worked and created, whilst a plethora of introductions, indices, appendices and footnotes add greater depth to the portrait of this complex man of science. This compilation is a 'must' for all serious students of Selman-Troytt.
The Selman-Troytt Papers is edited by P J Barrington, a graduate of Mull University and one of the most devout Christians on the island. Although opposed to ejaculation on religious grounds - such as a churchyard - he agreed to bring his considerable editorial expertise to the project in order to further the cause of scientific research.
