Cllothboard. Condition: Good FOR AGE. No Jacket. First. First Edition. no D/J some foxing on fep and marks on front and back boards otherwise tight and unmarked.This book is both practical and humorous. Practical because the author has produced for market nearly every kind of fruit that can be grown in Britain and tells a tale of how he does it. Humorous, because he describes his own "Robinson Crusoe" existence with his wife "Friday" who works all the hours of daylight for about the same pay as Robinson's faithful companion. They live on a three-acre plot on which everything is home-made - cabin, huts, roads, path, a well, even a "Harry Tate" greenhouse in which hundreds of plants are raised every year. Readers of Men Only, the Strand Magazine, the Daily Mail, and many other journals, have been following these breezy developments with breathless interest. The present book gives full expression to the author's humour and to the deep conviction underlying it, viz. that the foundations of world peace can only be rebuilt on - bellies! Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Book.
