About this Item
First edition hardcover in red cloth covered boards with bright gilt titles on frt panel and more dull title on back strip. This volume shows bumped spine ends and upper tips, 120 pp text is tight, bright, crisp and unmarked save for some foxing and age-toning on prelims and rear pages. Four black and white plates by Gilbert Holiday. Vintage Parisian bookstore sticker at foot of frt panel along with a pencil name and place (Paris) written on the fep in pencil. No dj, so no blurb found to sum up a synopsis of the tale. From perusing the book, I learned that it is about English Shire horses who are bred, trained and shown on Gallops Farm in East Riding, England by the farm's owner and his son Will. Story is written around young Will's love of horses, his coming of age and the fate of the farm, which has been in the current family's ownership for generations. Seller Inventory # R46481
