Item description from seller

Third edition. 50 illustrations by Hugh Thomson. 8vo, green cloth with handsome gilt illustrations and lettering on the upper cover and spine. a.e.g. 158pp. A very good copy, quite clean and bright. With a few bumps in the cloth and some minor chips at the spine panel at the tips and hinges. A charming confection. This "humorous month in the countryside" contains some of Thomson’s most delightful and saucy works. Sir Roger de Coverley was the fictitious English squire of Queen Anne's reign who was one of the Spectator’s most popular characters. His lovable, yet utterly ridiculous, personality gave Thomson opportunity to unleash his full whimsey in what is unquestionably the most humorous of his illustrated works.
