About This Item
London: Sidgwick and Jackson for the Yorkshire Dialect Society, 1917. 2nd Ed. (1st-1916) . Grey printed Cloth. Good-VG/No Jacket. 13 Cm X 19 Cm. xlii+136; faint tanning to endpapers, but initially extensive brown flecking reducing through to c. p.xxxii and resuming, though lightly, c. p.117; very faint pencil underlining and marginalia throughout Introduction mostly noting proper names - this is genuinely too faint to really be a problem and easily erased in any case, 1919-dated sig. top frotn endpaper. This 2nd ed. has some corrections of attribution and word meanings detailed in a Preface to the Second Edition. What is perhaps touching and worth noting is that the dedication reads 'To the Yorkshiremen Serving their Country in Trench or on Battleship I respectfully dedicate this collection of Songs from the Homeland'. This 2nd ed. appears to be scarcer than the 1st and is presumably to be prefered due to corrections. Note: quoted shipping rates are calculated for 500-700 gram net weight, cost will be modified up or down as appropriate outside this range.
