The book has loss to the back end paper caused by hungry insects; the back paste down is also damaged, its inner edge having lost its covering and thus revealing the cardboard. It is still solid, and apart from minor foxing, clean, but it has been read and loved and it shows. What makes this a rare copy is that glued to the verso of the front end paper is a slip of paper: " With good wishes, Ffy yours A.H. Chisholm" There is a Jean Galbraith book plate on the half title page and another slip of paper glued beneath that "With best wishes from W(?)B B-W May 1935." I' assuming it's gone from Chisholm to B-W to Jean Galbraith.

Store Description

Good Reading was established in 1991. In early 2013, I downsized from a shop which spanned a block and two stories to a largish house which resembles a rabbit warren. There are at approximately 40,000 titles, including over 10,000 books in Italian, French, German, Modern Greek, Latin and classical Greek., most of which have not yet been catalogued. I also have a very large Theology section, and a substantial cookery and Australian History one. Please contact me if there is a specific title you are chasing as it may be languishing on the shelf uncatalogued. All enquiries will be answered promptly, books will be mailed out swaddled like Russian babies, and all faults honestly described. I do a full refund for any book sporting nasty surprises.
