Description:
Tunbridge Wells: Midas, 1974. A Very Good+ unmarjked copy with VG+ complete dustjacket. Born into a world where Nanny reigned supreme over the nursery and where little girls were fed on Virol and made to wear Liberty Bodices with bones, Antoinette du Vallon looks back over 65 full and fascinating years. A zest for life illuminates her vivid memories of boarding school, holidays in Ireland (including an encounter with George Bernard Shaw), housekeeping for Pa in Sussex, marriage, WVS duties in the Second World War, and her disastrous commercial venture. Irish relations and friends are entertainingly sketched in, as well as odd animals. A unique slice of social history delightfully illustrated by the author. B2B. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Illus. by Vallon, Antoinette Du. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
