HARDCOVER. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. With an evocative typed letter signed from Ruth Draper (actress, dramatist and partner of De Bosis), dated April 2nd 1932, to Virginia Crawford (suffragette, anti-fascist campaigner, editor of the Italy-To-Day pamphlets and of 'Dilke scandal' fame). In it she seeks assistance sending money to 'The prisoners' (associates and family members of De Bosis who were jailed in Italy following his fatal flight over Rome to drop anti-fascist leaflets on Mussolini). The book has the bookplate on the front paste-down end-paper of Roderick Eustace Enthoven (architect and British MFAA officer (aka a 'Monuments Man') in Italy 1944 - 46), who had given it to Crawford who subsequently married it up with the letter and the referred to De Bosis poem.
