Hardback. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Thus. THE SOUTH COUNTRY. Edward Thomas. Introduction by John Wain. Hutchinson Publishing, London 1984 First Thus. ISBN 9780091532505 280pp Hardback This copy is in new unmarked condition, bound in brown cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine, the book is bright, white, tight and square, the unclipped dust wrapper is also in new condition and has been covered in clear, removable, mylar protective film. The South Country describes a year's wanderings across England, south of the rivers Thames and Severn and East of Exmoor 'with glances sidelong by way of contrast, at East Anglia and Cornwall. Acutely sensitive to rhythms of the countryside, Edward Thomas's lyrical, passionate, and sometimes political writing merges natural history with folk culture, and gives us a free-form record of the feelings and observations of one of the great poets of the English language. This was Edward Thomas at the peak of his powers as a descriptive writer. This edition has the benefit of a perceptive introduction by John Wain. Ref NNN 4.
