About this Item

Tan cloth with green lettering and cover vignette. Bump to head and heel of spine. Text is clean and bright, no marks. Unclipped DJ with $3.50 price shows rubbing to all edges, small chips and tears to head and heel of spine, rubbing to tips of corners. Mild general scuffing and soil. "May the road rise up to greet you; may the Lord take you in the hollow of His hand as you take up this tale. Faith and 'tis so full of lore, legend, and lunacy that the Blarney itself seems to be speaking. O! the Blarney is a perilous thing! The world's source of sweet persuasive eloquence, the giver of the gab has been for centuries shrouded in mystery and legend. It remained for John Hewlett in this bewitching narrative to reveal its secret history and to explore for the first time the enchanted groves of Blarney, where men come from far and wide to woo the world's most famous talisman."
