About This Item
London: Boriswood, 1931. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Back-strip faded and a bit worn. 8vo. Cloth. 64pp. This is a long, and pointedly satirical, poem on many of the English literary notables of the time. As such it did not do his reputation a lot of good. The book is inscribed by the author for Issac Rousseau who became Professor of History at Rhodes University, South Africa. The inscription is dated Cape Town, Feb. 1932. The two men met, however, in 1918 where they were both at Oxford. Campbell, however, never matriculated.
