Paperback. Condition: new. Fogarty, Thomas (illustrator). Paperback. "I have tried to relate," explains Grayson, "the experiences of that elusive, invisible life which in every man is so far more real, so far more important, than his visible activities -- the real expression of a life much occupied in other employment." He is successful. In this, one of his most sensitive books, Grayson introduces us to his 'Woman of Forty-Five', his 'Green People', pragmatic old John Templeton, and the irascible James Howieson. Then there's Horace, "a Yankee of the Yankees, who loves nothing better than to chase his friends into corners with questions, and leave them ultimately with the impression that they are somehow less sound, sensible, practical, than he is -- and he usually proves it, not because he is right, but because he is sure.". This book is a symphony for the five senses, recognising the best in each of them. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
