About This Item
London : Robert Hale Ltd, 1971. Hardcover. Very good +/Good + . Anne Davidson. 8vo, 309pp. Brown cloth with gilt titles on spine. Pictorial dust jacket with small repaired tear at spine, very clean and bright. Compton Mackenzie brings to life a forgotten world… a middle aged man looks back on his childhood, and the Victorian scene is vividly recreated through the eyes of a child, as he arrives from the loneliness and remoteness of his native Wales to the bustle of Paddington Station and the wonder of London. 9780709121152. Personal dedication and signed by the author in a rather shaky hand, forgivable due to his age when this was republished.
