Wraps show just a touch of cover and corner wear; binding sound. Interior clean and unmarked with tanned pages; black & white illustrations. ‘Gilesland is, as everyone knows, a country wholly surrounded by choppy seas and duffers in boats. Its pastures are peopled by idle cattle, idle farmhands and even idler earls. No snow falls there that does not end up impacting on the necks of vicars and postmen. No rain falls except to raise the grass for the lawn-mower industry.’ (from Foreword)
