About this Item

A very good copy of the stated first (1928) hard cover edition, lacking a dust-jacket. Inscribed and signed on the front free edpaper: "To Evan Morgan / With all good wishes / from / Austen Chamberlain / Cardiff / Nov. 28th 1930." Evan [Frederic] Morgan was the 2nd Viscount Tredegar (1893 - 1949), a noted eccentric. The text of the book is wholly unmarked, pristine, and the green cloth with gilt lettering on the spine is remarkably bright and fresh in appearance. There is a bit of foxing/age-toning to the endpapers, the first few/last pages, and the page edges of the volume: unobtrusive. The book came to us from the library of a late local scholar of the world peace movements, and has a Highgate Auctions card laid in, which may indicate how he obtained this and other rare items from this period. A beautiful copy. Seller Inventory # 018821
