London: Methuen and Co. Ltd., 1926. Bound in the publishers original chocolate brown boards with contrasting caramel cloth binding strip for spine. This is the rare first printing of 1926.

All pages are present and correct and remain in well preserved condition throughout.The book is tightly bound and has been well looked after over the years. Housed in the sea green dustwrapper with contrasting dark blue title lettering and charming decoration to front and back panel.

Now protected in a removable archival booksleeve to preserve its condition. Photographs of the book… Read More
