About this Item
Description:
FIRST EDITION, drawings in brick-red throughout by Kington, some full-page or double-spread, pp. 95, crown 8vo, original first issue pink boards, backstrip lettered in yellow with lean to spine, dustjacket with backstrip panel faintly darkened, very good. Inscribed by the author on the title-page: 'For Dodie Smith, with much gratitude & admiration'. An appealing association between two major women writers of the period Smith then at the height of her fame, having published 'I Capture the Castle' and 'The Hundred and One Dalmatians'. This book, a teenage love-story of its time, was Spain's last published novel; she died in a plane-crash on her way to the Grand National in 1964. Presentation copies of her work are uncommon.
