About This Item
London: Jonathan Cape, 1933. 64pp. Original publisher's green cloth boards lettered in navy, with the unclipped cream dustwrapper printed in black. Wrapper a little marked and scuffed. With an ink inscription to Henry Williamson from the author dated July 25th 1934. Teresa Hooley (1888-1973) was a prolific female poet working predominantly from 1920 to the middle of the 20th century. Falling out of fashion in her later years, she is best remembered for her First World War Poem 'A War Film', which first appeared in Songs of All Seasons (London, 1927). Henry Williamson (1895-1977), novelist and writer on natural history and the English countryside, is predominantly remembered as the author of Tarka the Otter (1927) for which he won the Hawthornden Prize. His wartime experiences on the Western Front having altered his life inexorably, he spent the remainder of his post-war life in Devon, Norfolk and Suffolk, writing naturalistic novels very much in the romantic tradition. . First edition. 8vo.
