About this Item
Spine worn at head, backstrip torn, free endpapers a little embrowned. Novel first published by Cassell, 1918, this edition unusual in bearing the name of no publisher, only the printer (Waterlow); with the ownership inscription of Michael Foot - "Read August 1994 Great in everything p396" - and with his vigorous pencil markings throughout, not least on p. 396, and his notes on the rear pastedown. Foot, the author of a 1995 biography, H.G.: the history of Mr Wells, dubbed Joan and Peter "a brave and comprehensive statement of [Wells's] combined love of England and faith in a world citizenship. It was as eloquent as William Hazlitt and as far-seeing as Thomas Paine.". Seller Inventory # 32M100530
