First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. Illustrated by Douglas Hall (illustrator). First Edition. 1st edition book in a slightly strange d/w; I suspect it is the original d/w with printing errors, but cannot be sure; it is correctly price at 21s; it is printed in normal size print - yet at the bottom of the inside flap is printed 'second large printing' and on the inside flap at rear is printed 'sixth printing' none of which makes sense to me; the only book details printed - in normal size print - on the d/w is of the book preceding this one ie Th Hills is Lonely, so as I said I can only assume this is the original dustwrapper with a couple of printers errors on; book has brown endpapers; a few small foxing spots to blocked page foredges; d/w not price clipped; top strip of d/w browning - see picture on our own site; ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardback in brown cloth boards, some light foxing to the edge block and endpapers, previous owner's name and dedication, otherwise in Very Good condition, dustwrapper unclipped, small nicks and shelfwear, otherwise in Very Good condition. In a clear protective archival wrapper. First edition, pp207, b&w line drawings. In a series of vividly drawn sketches, taking in birth, death, marriage and the seasons of life, Lillian Beckwith's writing is shot through with warm, cozy affection and droll wit. Neither reason applies to Lillian Beckwith, in this memoir of her convalescence on an isolated Hebridean island where "even the sheeps on the hills is lonely". On Bruach island, she observes, muses at and joins the native crofters in their unique rhythm of life; where friends fistfight in the evening and discuss bruises the next morning; where the taxi-driver is also the lorry driver, coal merchant and undertaker; where the locals don't remove their hats during a funeral so their heads won't get cold; and where the post-office's 'opening hours' fit around the daily milking of cows and not the other way round!.
