A Time of Gifts

On foot to constantinople: from the hook of holland to the middle danube, by patrick leigh fermor , introduction by jan morris.

Buy on Amazon

Couldn't load pickup availability

At the age of eighteen, Patrick Leigh Fermor set off from the heart of London on an epic journey—to walk to Constantinople. A Time of Gifts is the rich account of his adventures as far as Hungary, after which Between the Woods and the Water continues the story to the Iron Gates that divide the Carpathian and Balkan mountains. Acclaimed for its sweep and intelligence, Leigh Fermor's book explores a remarkable moment in time. Hitler has just come to power but war is still ahead, as he walks through a Europe soon to be forever changed—through the Lowlands to Mitteleuropa, to Teutonic and Slav heartlands, through the baroque remains of the Holy Roman Empire; up the Rhine, and down to the Danube.

At once a memoir of coming-of-age, an account of a journey, and a dazzling exposition of the English language, A Time of Gifts is also a portrait of a continent already showing ominous signs of the holocaust to come.

Additional Book Information

Series: NYRB Classics ISBN: 9781590171653 Pages: 344 Publication Date: October 3, 2005

This is a glorious feast, the account of a walk in 1934 from the Hook of Holland to what was then Constantinople. The 18-year-old Fermor began by sleeping in barns but, after meeting some landowners early on, got occasional introductions to castles. So he experienced life from both sides, and with all the senses, absorbing everything: flora and fauna, art and architecture, geography, clothing, music, foods, religions, languages. Writing the book decades after the fact, in a baroque style that is always rigorous, never flowery, he was able to inject historical depth while still retaining the feeling of boyish enthusiasm and boundless curiosity. This is the first of a still uncompleted trilogy; the second volume, Between the Woods and the Water , takes him through Hungary and Romania; together they capture better than any books I know the remedial, intoxicating joy of travel. — Thomas Swick, South Florida Sun-Sentinel

The finest traveling companion we could ever have...His head is stocked with enough cultural lore and poetic fancy to make every league an adventure. — Christopher Hudson, Evening Standard

The greatest of living travel writers...an amazingly complex and subtle evocation of a place that is no more. — Jan Morris

In these two volumes of extraordinary lyrical beauty and discursive, staggering erudition, Leigh Fermor recounted his first great excursion... They're partially about an older author's encounter with his young self, but they're mostly an evocation of a lost Mitteleuropa of wild horses and dark forests, of ancient synagogues and vivacious Jewish coffeehouses, of Hussars and Uhlans, and of high-spirited and deeply eccentric patricians with vast libraries (such as the Transylvanian count who was a famous entomologist specializing in Far Eastern moths and who spoke perfect English, though with a heavy Scottish accent, thanks to his Highland nanny). These books amply display Leigh Fermor's keen eye and preternatural ear for languages, but what sets them apart, besides the utterly engaging persona of their narrator, is his historical imagination and intricate sense of historical linkage...Few writers are as alive to the persistence of the past (he's ever alert to the historical forces that account for the shifts in custom, language, architecture, and costume that he discerns), and I've read none who are so sensitive to the layers of invasion that define the part of Europe he depicts here. The unusual vantage point of these books lends them great poignancy, for we and the author know what the youthful Leigh Fermor cannot: that the war will tear the scenery and shatter the buildings he evokes; that German and Soviet occupation will uproot the beguiling world of those Tolstoyan nobles; and that in fact very few people who became his friends on this marvelous and sunny journey will survive the coming catastrophe. — Benjamin Schwarz, The Atlantic

The book's strong magic derives in part from the atmosphere of miracle that attends Leigh Fermor's peregrinations. He marches with the seven-league boots of youth, fatigue barely registering as whole countries roll beneath his heel. The comforting rhythm of his journey—exertion, encounter, rest, food, sleep—rocks its readers into feelings of happiness and invulnerability. I could do this, you think, I could just start walking and keep going for a day or two, or three, or four, or more... —Robert Macfarlane, Literary Hub

Ultimate birthday book.

Estimated processing time: 5-7 business days

Confirm Personalization

This 12" x 15" best seller was inspired by a New York mayor who wanted to present a personalized compendium of Times front pages to his mother for her 100th birthday. It contains the front page from a loved one's day of birth and every birthday that followed. It comes with a timeline spanning more than 115 years of news and cultural events; top pages from the recipient's birth year; and an array of famous Times front pages. Available with a leatherette or premium linen cover in a handsome gift box.

The Ultimate Birthday Book is like a time capsule that captures the headlines of one's life. Ever wonder what world events occurred on the day you were born? Or what events shaped your parents' lifetime? Only the immense daily record of The Times can inspire such rich and personalized reflection.

This hardbound compilation chronicles every birthday front page in someone's life. If the special date is Feb. 4, 1931, for example, this book would include the front page from that day, and the front page from Feb. 4 every year thereafter, right through today. As the recipient flips through the book, it will take them back to the most important headlines, articles and photos from the perspective of The Times.

An enhanced version of our 80-page Custom Birthday Book, the Ultimate offers additional features to make it a lasting treasure and an heirloom gift. It contains approximately 140 pages, including an entertaining 24-page timeline, packed with photos, of more than 1,200 news and cultural events spanning the last 120 years. The timeline is available nowhere else. The Ultimate also features four pages of newsworthy events from your chosen year and a collection of world-changing front pages.

A Times exclusive, this "year you were born book" is available with a leatherette cover with foil-stamped embossing or with a luxurious linen cover. Both leatherette and linen versions come in an assortment of colors.

The book comes with a 2.5" x 7.5" magnifier and a certificate of authenticity.

Available for the years 1915 to 2011. Books for younger recipients have fewer birthday front pages, but we automatically insert additional historical front pages to make each book substantial with around 140 pages.

If ordering for this year's birthday, be sure to order the day of the birthday or later to include this year's page. Due to the nature of this product, dates for February 29 are not available. For birthdays that fall on a leap year, we recommend our Special Day book as an alternative.

Pages are smaller than the dimensions of a newspaper, so the type is reduced slightly to fit this book’s 12” x 15” format. Pages after 1998 are in full color. Most pre-1998 pages are reproduced from microfilm, an archiving process that picked up imperfections on printed pages and diminished the quality of photos.

Because this personalized item is custom-made for you, all sales are final and this product cannot be returned, refunded or exchanged. Produced in Vermont.

Book Deals Can Add Up to Millions of Dollars for Supreme Court Justices

For the justices, selling books remains one of the few ways to earn income outside the court.

  • Share full article

new york times book review gifts

By Abbie VanSickle and Alexandra Alter

Abbie VanSickle reported from Washington, and Alexandra Alter from New York.

For Supreme Court justices, book deals have become a highly lucrative way to shape the public narrative of their lives and legacies.

The money brought in by those deals, one of the few ways that they can supplement their income, often far eclipses their salaries, roughly $300,000 .

A majority of the current justices have published books, most recently Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. Her memoir, “ Lovely One ,” which traces the arc of her family from the segregated Jim Crow South to her rise to the Supreme Court, was released this week and shot up Amazon’s best-seller list.

Here’s a closer look.

Which justices have written books?

Six of the nine justices have written books or currently have book deals.

Justice Jackson joins Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Clarence Thomas in publishing moving accounts of their childhoods and paths to the court. Justice Sotomayor has also written several children’s books.

Justice Neil M. Gorsuch has focused on the law, publishing books describing the ethical and legal issues raised by assisted suicide and euthanasia. His most recent, published this summer, is a series of stories drawn from court cases that he uses to argue that administrative overreach and the increasing number of laws have harmed ordinary Americans.

Two of the newest justices — Amy Coney Barrett and Brett M. Kavanaugh — have book deals in place. Justice Barrett’s book has been described as her views about keeping personal feelings out of judicial rulings. Justice Kavanaugh’s is expected to be a legal memoir that is likely to touch on his bruising confirmation fight.
