Original Cloth. Condition: Good. Sindall, Alfred (illustrator). Second Edition. The book is given as having been printed in 1945 which would make it the second edition - first published by OUP in 1943. One curious detail is that the front pastedown has 'Xmas 1943' written on it however. The boards have some bumping to the corners and a little surface discolouration with one tiny dark spot to the spine. Page edges browned with light spotting in places. Previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown - this was David Emerson, a former GP from Cambridge. Faint Heffer & Sons stamp to the bottom of the front pastedown and there is some browning and spotting to the endpapers. Light spotting to the first and last few pages but the pages are otherwise unmarked. No jacket. Illustrated by Alfred Sindall with a frontispiece in colour.
