About this copy
Elizabeth Goudge's The Dean's Watch, published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1960. A big, beautiful novel of the 1870s, The Dean's Watch follows the friendship between the outwardly formidable Dean of the City and Isaac Peabody, a quaint and gifted clockmaker. Goudge at her warmest: romance, a child as enchanting as any in her fiction, and the joy of craftsmanship woven through a snowbound Christmas in a cathedral city.
This copy comes in its original dust jacket, with the illustrated design by A. R. Whitear, who also provided the drawings within. A handsome hardback in good order.
Condition
- Book
- Very Good - tight binding and clean, bright pages, with the boards sound in the photographed sections.
- Dust jacket
