A Small Boy in the Sixties

Slightly faded blue boards and blue spine fading to brown. Some foxing to fore edge. Internally toning to end papers with name and date written on front free one. Clean contents. Includes interesting, rather irascible letter proposing a book about water mills and berating illustrators and such: 'the literary pundits are a hopelessly conceited lot. A practical man with real knowledge of his subject, would have no chance against them'.
