Item description from seller

First Edition (first printing). 8vo. 186pp. Original publisher's two-tone cloth lettered and blocked in purple at the spine. Edges and free endpapers spotted. A very good copy in toned, spotted and lightly rubbed non-price-clipped dust wrapper. The author's scholarly study of the English language and the history of the alphabet. Laid-in is a signed typewritten note on 'Sunday Telegraph' headed note paper, addressed to Stephen Potter and signed 'Tony'. A former dealer has suggested that this missive is from Burgess, but that seems doubtful.
