London: Jonathan Cape Ltd, 1945 Jonathan Cape, 1945 Vg- No Jacket Apparent First This Is A Collected And Indexed Forerunner Of The Traditional Mimeographed Christmas Letter Which Was Written By A Cambridge Don And Sent To Former Students Who Were Serving In World War Two. These Were Sent As The "Parish Newsletter," Using A Great Many Acronyms Which Enabled A Probably Occasionally Less Censored Discussion Of Wartime Life In Cambridge. It Has A Most Enjoyable Donnish Voice : ". . . It Is True That There Are An Awful Lot Of German Refugees In Cambridge And I Am Constantly Overhearing Scraps Of Hunnish In The Streets." He Notes Also The Growth Of 'Undergraduate Soviets' Which He Blames On The Arrival Of Various London Institutions [Presumably Fleeing The Battle Of Britain] And The Left-Wing Predilections Of The London School Of Economics. No Writing Or Marks, Light Toning, Hinge Weak, Corners And Spine Ends Lightly Rubbed.
