About this copy
Victor Gollancz, the publisher and campaigner whose name stood for so much in twentieth-century British letters, wrote this warm and candid autobiographical letter to his grandson. Part memoir, part family history and part personal philosophy, it is a deeply human book that rewards every reader who loves a thoughtful life story. This copy comes in a handsome hardback binding with its dust jacket, which carries the printed price of 12/6 net.
The boards are firm and the text is clean.
Condition
- Book
- Good – a sound, firm copy with light general wear to the cloth. The pages are clean, and there is an owner's name and date, 'S. Dougla Rae 1952', on the front free endpaper.
- Dust jacket
- Fair – substantially intact and presentable, with chipping and small tears at the head and tail of the spine and some wear to the edges.
A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
Collector's notes
- A 1952 Gollancz imprint with its printed jacket price of 12/6 net.
- Owner's inscription 'S. Dougla Rae 1952' on the front free endpaper.
A lovely copy, ready for its next reader.
