Chatto & Windus, London, 1945. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/Good. Two volumes (complete). A resolutely comfortable set.

The dustjackets have clear plastic protective covers. Both djs are much worn, scuffed, sunned, marked. They are defiantly secure and sure. The red boards of both books have light scuffing marks. They are dignified and contented. Vol I: the page trims (rough cut) are foxed. The early pages have a few spots of foxing. The contents are by far, clear and clean, relaxed, companionable, certain. Vol II: the paper trims (also rough cut) are foxed. Within, the early and later pages have spots of foxing. The contents are very clean, clear, certain, confident, congenial. fk.
