MY EARLY LIFE: A Roving Commission -Wartime Keystone Library Edition in Dust Jacket-

Arguably, Winston Churchill's most entertaining book, a memoir of youth and wayward school boyhood -- in fact, the only volume of personal memoirs that Churchill ever wrote. Published in the U.S. under the title, A ROVING COMMISSION. This is a virtually mint copy of the wartime Third Impression of the Keystone Library edition in an unclipped dust jacket. The Keystone Library was publisher Thornton Butterworth's budget imprint; it reproduced First Edition-quality books at affordable prices.Bound in striking purple cloth, this copy is almost shockingly pristine, as if just published, in an equally pristine dust jacket. Yet it is, in fact, over eighty years old. A perfectly fabulous volume. Keystone Library Edition (Third Impression). 8vo (392 pages, with photo frontispiece, maps, plans, one folding map, 16 tipped-in illustrations) (Cohen A91.3.c(Woods A37a).
