Item description from seller

- Octavo, softcover bound in printed golden yellow wraps. The wraps are darkened & lightly bumped with a small stain to the rear wrap. Pages [305]-336. There is a small piece out of the bottom corner of each of the last 5 leaves & the top page corners are lightly bumped. Good. The editor, John Middleton Murry, explains in a note on the rear wrap that "The Adelphi" is being temporarily edited from The Adelphi Centre in Langham, Essex, a center founded in anticipation of the war to support "works of constructive pacifism" and to explore "new forms of social living".

"His death was attributed to the severity of his exertions at the Adelphi Centre."This issue is mainly concerned with the war. Among the contents are an article by Murry on Rudolph Hess; "What is War?" by Reginald Reynold; and poems by Elizabeth Welch MacKenzie and Alex. Comfort. …
