The letters offer an immensely detailed, vivid and dramatic exchange that not only covers the events of three years at a Victorian public school but gives a solid impression of the kind of life lived by a well-off middle-class family at the end of the nineteenth century, the interests, attitudes, beliefs, enthusiasms and fears, and the tremendous effort made to keep and hold things in a desired framework, moral, domestic and educational.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A first (and only?) printing of the true first edition, which was privately printed, complete in its original dustwrapper in extremely nice, bright, clean collectable condition. A good historical document for those researching Victorian private schools and Victorian social history. A beautifully produced heavyweight hardcover book. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
