    First edition, first printing of 'When The Green Woods Laugh'. Published by Michael Joseph in London, 1960. A fine copy. The dust wrapper has not been price clipped, displaying the original 12s, 6d. The boards are free from notable chips and marks and the text blocks are bright and white. No inscriptions within and exceptionally clean within the book. Inscribed on the title page 'Bertram Rota/with cordial greetings/from his friend the/author/H. E Bates/1960'. Overall, this is a fine copy. The third in the series began by the 1958 novel The Darling Buds of May focusing on the Larkins, a family living in rural Kent. The title is a reference to William Blake's poem Laughing Song.
