A near perfect copy of the chatty poems about his school days that made Betjeman famous and eventually Poet Laureate. His candor about the dark side of a private school education, along with the joys of intellectual awakening, make a uniquely honest record of a class-conscious society. Hardcover with excellent, clipped jacket. Book is fine, with small owner dedication.
