Item description from seller

180pp. Rebound by library, with cream endpapers. Front endpapers show faint traces of removed library labels. Small neat circular library stamp to half title page, and there is a slightly roughened patch to the head of the title page where there may have been some writing. The upper end of the Contents page was torn next to the spine, but this is now barely detectable, having been very neatly repaired with archival tape. There are some red smudges and light soiling around the first chapter heading on p.9. Text all clean otherwise, no dog-ear creases etc, and the rear endpapers are clean and bright. Text block may have been slightly trimmed by the library - it is now 17.8x11cms. Firm, in the library cloth of red and pink vertical wiggly stripes, with the printed title on a pale blue strip running up the spine. Small scuffs to the spine ends and corners. A rare title.

Store description

The bookshop is in a former Primitive Methodist Chapel in the centre of Westleton, opposite the post office stores and backing on to the duck pond. I moved here in 1977 and have been selling books since 1982, and it has become a favourite destination for many visitors to the area. Since 1999 I have been listing a small part of my stock online, through abe and my own website at chapelbooks.com . We are open 7 days a week, 12 to 5, often longer in summer, and with rare exceptions in winter. We welcome telephone enquiries: try at any time - we are often here outside shop hours. There are more than 10,000 books on the shelves, in all subject areas, from 50p to £100, with rarer books in reserve. We also sell vinyl (LPs). We regret that access for wheelchair users is limited. The premises are unheated. The turning to Westleton is about quarter of a mile north of Yoxford on the A12. Buses are rarely seen here. The nearest rail station is Darsham (3 miles). People have been known to look for us in Saxmundham: it is our 'post town' but it is 7 miles away. With Aldeburgh to the south and Southwold to the north, this area is rich in a quiet and unmountainous beauty, excellent walking and cycling country. Heathland, forest, and the RSPB reserve at Minsmere are on the doorstep. The lost city of Dunwich is 3 miles away: as, at present, is the North Sea which took it.…
