About this copy
The second volume of Victor Gollancz's autobiographical letter to his grandson, following My Dear Timothy. Gollancz, the founder of the publishing house bearing his name and one of the most influential figures in postwar British publishing and public life, writes with warmth, candour and wide-ranging wisdom. Readers have praised the book for its honesty and its vivid picture of what it felt like to live through the upheavals of the twentieth century.
A handsome hardback in its red cloth binding, complete with its original dust jacket bearing the printed price of 12/6 net and the list of praise for the first volume on the rear panel.
Condition
- Book
- Good. The binding is firm and the boards are intact, with clean pages and a pencilled stock number on the endpaper.
- Dust jacket
- Fair. The jacket is complete with its price intact, but has chipping and small tears at the spine ends, some wear to the corners and light soiling to the rear panel.
A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
Collector's notes

- Published by Victor Gollancz, London, 1953.
