Add to basketFirst Edition. [17], 322, [3] p.; ill. (colour), 8 plates. Red cloth hardcover, smyth-sewn binding, with gilt lettering to cover and spine, spine exhibits sunning and slight bumping, front cover is slightly bowed, and the covers have minor edgewear, previous owner's name in pen to ffep, cracked but holding at half-title (see photos) and pg. 16, and the foredge and bottom of the textblock are deckle edged and aged, with the expected amount of wear and tear, but the book is otherwise internally clean, clear, and tightly bound. Some pages are still uncut, so it has never been read through. All 8 tipped-in colour plates are present.Please see listing images for preview and more details, and do not hesitate to contact us should you require further photographs to make a decision.It is unclear what genre this book falls under and there is no information to be found online. Through browsing the text, it seems to be something like a romantic memoir, but it may be fictional drama, a little bit of mystery, with a good dose of Christianity. In any case, a cozy British read set mainly in the gardens.From the introductory material: LIST OF CHAPTERS I. MY GARDEN OF THE RED, RED ROSE II. THE OLD MANSE GARDEN III.
