Add to basket"Of all things, living of lifeless, upon this strange earth, there is but one which, having reached the mid-term of appointed human endurance on it, I still regard with unmitigated amazement. I know, indeed, that all around me is wonderful--but I cannot answer it with wonder:--a dark veil, with foolish words.But one object I never pass without the renewed wonder of childhood, and that is the bow of a boat." Red boards with gilt lettering on the spine and front covers. Covers are well thumbed and rubbed, with some small patches of white discolouration upon spine and boards. Previous owner's inscription on front free endpaper. Head and tail of spine bumped, corners smooth and bear some wear. Head of spine has small piece missing. Spine sunned. Free endpapers, pastedowns and title pages bear moderate discolouration and light foxing. Page edges well thumbed, discoloured and lighlty foxed. Binding is tidy. Pages throughout may bear a light patch of foxing here and there. This book is in fair condition. *We always describe the faults of our books meticulously; they usually present better than they sound.
