About This Item
New York; (1984): Farrar, Straus, Giroux. First American Edition. Octavo. 160pp. This is the story of the life of Roald as a child and his many adventures. Some incidents are funny, some are painful and some are unpleasant, but they are all true. A fine bright copy bound in 1/4 brown cloth over pale peach paper covered boards, in very good pictorial dust jacket with a bit of toning to edges. Very nice.
