Two first edition hardcovers, no writing or foxing. Slight offsetting to endpapers. Red boards with black lettering and magenta boards with gold lettering. Jackets Very Good only, some edge wear, toning at spine. Wine Glass is price-clipped. Wine, says Mr. Warner Allen, is to be regarded rather as the excuse than the subject of this book, which indulges in what Disraeli called "the hare-brained chatter of irresponsible frivolity" about a multitude of topics. 232 pages / 244 pages.
