hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover (Original Cloth). Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. b/w. map end-papers; Diarists and drinkers, rebels and revellers, painters and princes - all have known Stortford, and have left their impressions. These open the pages of this fascinating album of the past. Here sober men also preached temperance: men like Joseph 'Jesus' Crisp, who opposed ale for paupers; Avery Rolf, who proposed drink on prescription, and Alfred Slaps Barrett, whose son Ted played trombone abed. Fishmonger Billy Peck went shopping barefoot and bowler hatted, and Brother Xavier braved an inferno for the sake of a smoke. Sarah Death wore white stockings and her friend's dog wore black. Kathleen Hill rode to hounds - and to fires on a motorbike: she saved a suffering horse by driving its owner instead. Thunderstorms threatened builder-dowser Bacon, so he was tied to his own scaffolding, while Gerald Scott got 3s and four ginger beers for enticing the Duke of Wellington's birds to local guns. When the Jubber Thickings delivered winter milk, they donned hoary sacks; children sang: 'Do you like foxes? Do you like chickens? Do you like kissing Jubber Thickings?'

Dodger Gray cooked hedgehogs while the Saracen's Head welcomed penny on the liners and dubious ladies; the Great Hall hosted the Bachelors' Ball and Emma Dup Pope gathered cress, smoked a pipe and invented a shopping trolley.
