About this copy
For over half a century Betjeman has been one of the most loved voices in English poetry. His wit, warmth and affection for the English landscape, its churches, suburbs and seaside towns, have made his verse a lasting favourite with generations of readers. This enlarged edition gathers his work into one handsome volume, and it has been a bestseller since the day it first appeared, with more than 230,000 copies sold.
This copy is a sixth impression from 1977 of the enlarged third edition, which includes all the poems from High and Low. The original John Murray paperback, priced at £1.50 net, is in good, sound condition with a firm binding and clean, intact pages.
Condition
- Book
- Good – The binding is firm and the text is clean and intact. The cover retains its bright diamond-and-fleur-de-lis pattern, though it shows creasing, a crack across the front panel and some wear to the corners and spine. The rear cover has creasing and edge wear.
A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
