Sobre este artículo
First Edition. Hamish Hamilton, London 1963
A near fine First Edition of the author's brilliant reconstruction of life in England between the wars. Mr. Blythe highlights a number of key episodes and personalities which typify the flavour of those two extraordinary decades. The essays cover diverse episodes and personalities such as the Jarrow March and The Rector of Stiffkey.
Mr. Blythe is perhaps best known for his work Akenfield (1969), an account of agricultural life in Suffolk in the first half of the 20th century.
This book is in excellent condition. Cloth bound boards with gilt lettering on spine.
Contents remarkably clean with no spotting, foxing or marking except for a a previous resale price and 1st ed. written in pencil on fep. Pages very slightly toned which adds to it's charm.
A most handsome book.
The DJ is price clipped with very minor loss to head and mainly tail of spine. Tiny chipping at corners. There is a small closed tear towards head of spine (barely noticeable). Noticeable fading to spine and front panel. DJ now in removeable protective sleeve.
Uncommon first edition, particularly with DJ.
