Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st BBC Book Edition. Paperback. Slight browning to edges of pages through age. 'My Grandfather', as the author explains, was something of a survival from 'the warm, gas-lit, stablre-smelling past' of Victorian London. Through his genial Pickwickian figure and his household we catch a glimpse of horse-drawn carriages, silk hats, parlourmaids and silver egg-stands - a world that has receded into history. The author's childhood memories of his grandfather paint a delightful picture of a bygone age and a genuinely old-fashioned gentleman. His characters are drawn with great affection and, sometimes with just a note of gentle amsuement, too. Illustrations. 136 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…

Denis Constanduros was born on July 22, 1910 in Sutton, Surrey, England, UK. He was a writer, known for Holiday Camp (1947), Sunday Story (1961) and 29 Acacia Avenue (1945). He died on October 23, 1978 in England, UK. Today the author and artist is probably best remembered for his 1948 book 'My Grandfather', as its title indicates, it is a portrait of the author's maternal grandfather, who, though surviving sturdily into the reign of George V, was to his grandson a character from the 'warm, gas-lit, stable-smelling past' of the Victorian age. With delicate and affectionate humour it brings to life not only its central character, but also the world in which he lived and which he surveyed with genial content from the windows of his spacious home in Kensington Gore.
