Original Wraps. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: No Jacket, as Issued. First UK Paperback Edition. Tenth impression of the first paperback edition - which was first published in paperback in 1978. The book was originally published in hardback by George G. Harrap in 1976. ***Near fine in colour illustrated card covers, with the original printed price of £4.50 on the back cover. The covers are in beautiful condition, with just the slightest of rubbing at the edges, and a very light crease at the top corner of the back cover. No marks, creases or tears. Edges of page block clean. Spine clean - not browned or faded, and with no reading creases. Spine tight. Covers bright. Internally also near fine with no creases or tears. Pages clean. ***This copy has been signed by the author "with Best Wishes, Eileen E. Atkins" and with "and Babs" with a different pen - both on the title page. Evelyn has also crossed out "Tenth" impression and added "11th" on the printer's page. ***158mm x 110mm. 186 pages. ***'Evelyn Atkins and her sister Babs were two middle-aged sisters who lived in suburban Surrey and led the humdrum life of so many commuters. Like others, Evelyn dreamed of owning an island. And Evelyn was a very determined daydreamer---. The Evelyn broke her leg and it meant an early retirement from her demanding job. The two sisters scraped together the money for a dilapidated cottage in Cornwall. From the cliffs they could see tiny Looe Island glimmering tantalisingly in the sunshine. Then came the momentous day when the island came up for sale. Needless to say, Evelyn and Babs were soon the proud - though somewhat bemused - owners. Life on an island certainly seemed to raise a lot of problems. But, while the locals looked on with scepticism, the two sisters, nothing daunted, rallied to meet the biggest adventure of their lives.' ***'"A delightful story of what happened when the Misses Atkins did what everyone dreams of doing"'. (Quote and review quote taken from the back cover) ***'Looe Island (Cornish: Enys Lann-Managh, meaning Island of the Monk's Enclosure), also known as St George's Island, and historically St Michael's Island is a small island nature reserve a mile from the mainland town of Looe off Cornwall, England. In 1965 the island was bought for £25,000 (equivalent to £515,000 in 2021) by two sisters, Babs and Evelyn Atkins. They wrote two books chronicling their purchase and subsequent life on Looe; "We Bought An Island" and its sequel "Tales From Our Cornish Island". Evelyn died in 1997 at the age of 87; Babs continued to live on the island until her death in 2004, at the age of 86. On her death, the island was bequeathed to Cornwall Wildlife Trust; it will be preserved as a nature reserve in perpetuity.' (Wiki) ***A tenth impression of the first paperback edition of this fascinating tale, in near fine condition. This copy fairly unique in being signed by both the author and her sister Babs - the two women who "bought an Island". ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.***.
