Illustrated laminated wrappers, 8vo, 23 cm, xii, 364 pp. From the blurb: " Written for Children was first published in 1965. It was immediately recognized as not only a readable and stimulating account of the development of children's books but also an important critical contribution to the subject. For the revised and expanded edition of 1974, John Rowe Townsend extended the scope of the book to cover the development of children's books in the United States and the Commonwealth, as well as other works of the imagination first published in the English language, including poetry and picture books. This latest picture-book includes a whole new section on English, American and Australian developments spanning the period 1945-85.' Good.
