Item description from seller

pp 93. Original crushed morocco. Fine art nouveau in English arts and crafts tradition, but we are unable to identify the precise binder. Meynell was a publisher and writer, a catholic biographer and contributor to numerous publications. This story of WW1 for children was first published in 1915 and rapidly went through many editions. Written in epistolary form, it is an account of British home life and the war through the correspondence between Aunt Sarah and her nephew, Captain Owen Tudor. A lovely copy in a fine art nouveau binding.
