Item description from seller

SIGNED BY THE EDITOR. 537 pages. Paperback: H 20.5cm x L 13.75cm. Paper covers lightly rubbed with slender scuffing at edges; light vertical creasing to spine. Editor's four-line ink inscription "For Bob Bell | with my best wishes, | Charlie Watson | Dec. 16, 1983" on half-title page; interior leaves are otherwise bright and clean. Binding retains some crispness. A very good+ copy. Pages 9-30 feature a lengthy Introduction with Selected Bibliography by editor Charles S. Watson who served as Professor of English at the University of Alabama from 1966-1997; inscribee Robert F. Bell was also a professor at the University of Alabama. WOODCRAFT was first published in 1854; this New College and University Press edition provides the correct title on the half-title page, i.e. "Woodcraft or Hawks About the Dovecote" and an incorrect title, i.e. "Woodcraft or Doves About the Dovecote" upon the title page; this egregious error seems to have been caught after a small print run as another copy (albeit unsigned) acquired from Professor Bell's estate had the correct title on both initial leaves. {LitShelf#2} ISBN 0808404237.…
