Hard Cover. First Edition. First UK Edition, First Printing. Publisher's brown boards lettered in gilt to the spine. Boards bright and clean. No previous owner's inscriptions. A VG++ copy with a bookseller's ticket to the front paste-down and an attractive book-plate to the verso of the title page. Very slight pushing (hardly wo…rth mentioning) at the head and tail of the spine. No dustwrapper but certainly good enough to take one. NB: Edward Ashdown Bunyard (18781939) was England's foremost pomologist (student of apples) and a significant gastronome and epicure in the 1920's and 30's. He wrote three books of national significance: A Handbook of Hardy Fruits (192025), The Anatomy of Dessert (1929), and The Epicure's Companion (1937, edited with his sister, Lorna). His family was the owner of one of England's most significant fruit nurseries, founded in 1796 in Kent. In his written work, Bunyard was important for his trenchant and enlightening explication of the charm of apples, surely England's most noble garden product, as well as pears and other fruits. Bunyard's life ended tragically with his suicide in 1939. Photographs/scans available upon request.
