About This Item
London : Michael Joseph, (1971). First edition. "A man called Chamberlain who did Prime Minister impressions spoke on the wireless; he said, 'As from eleven o'clock we are at war with Germany'. (I loved the WE) ...". Autobiography, truth, and humour from Milligan, who performed (rather than read) parts of the book at the Bedford Square Book Bang to tumultuous applause that summer. Demy 8vo (23cm). [iv],146,[ii]pp. Illustrations. Photographs. Original black boards, lettered in gilt; a few faint edge-spots, but a very good copy in the dust-jacket - the jacket a little sunned, worn and slightly chipped, with a relatively unobtrusive repaired tear and split to the rear panel extending to its full height. Contemporary May 1971 gift inscription, with twelve signatories, on front paste-down.
