Good, half-bound calf (front board slight bend inwards), with decorated boards; gilt/black titling somewhat faded; text block reasonably firm, pages untrimmed and unmarked, crisp and clean, top edge gilt. Owner's inscription Christmas 1898.. 12mo (190 x 130 / 7_"" x 5""). Roger Lancelyn Green calls Ewing's works the ""first outstanding child-novels"" in English literature. They show notably sympathetic insight into children's lives, admiration for things military, and a reflection of Ewing's strong Anglican faith. This volume includes Jackanapes (1884), Daddy Darwin's Dovecot (1884), the story of a Short Life (1885).
