Condición: new. (Hardcover, 2009). (1935) 2009 new edition. Quarter-bound leather, pictorial cloth. Ppxvii,182;258. B/w illustrations by Edward Seago. Limited to 100 numbered copies. Fine unread copies. Two books together in one slip-case. Fred Rolfe was the 'King of the Norfolk Poachers.' From the time when, as a child, he went to prison and the tread-mill for snaring a rabbit, he lived "agin the law." Rolfe began poaching in boyhood and, despite trying other jobs, including gamekeeping, continued his illegal career with increasing relish. He wrote I Walked by Night in old age, recording the lives of many tough, fascinating characters struggling to survive in an era of rural hardship. The Rabbit Skin Cap tells the story of George Baldry, a resourceful and practical countryman, a shoemaker and a poacher. It is a fascinating account of old Norfolk, its extraordinary characters and how they survived the deprivations of the nineteenth century East Anglian countryside. A classic of the English countryside. Each of these titles are one of a fine quality edition, quarter-bound in brown leather, limited to 100 copies. This is a pair from the series of 100, with matching numbers, together in one cloth slip-case. I Walked By Night, and, The Rabbit Skin Cap, are also available separately in this limited issue, with no slip-case, at £60.00 each. (See listings under Rolfe and Baldry, where there is also a paperback issueof the same titles.) .
