About This Item
London : Michael Joseph, (1960). First edition.

(158),[ii]pp. Original green cloth, blocked and lettered in gilt; faint tanning to endpapers; edges a little spotted, but otherwise a very good copy in the Broom Lynne dust-jacket, just lightly rubbed and with some mild spotting on the inner surface.
