Marget at the Manse

Descripción:

Undated but believed to be the first edition from the early 20th century. Attractive illustrated boards. There is some surface creasing to the spine which also has some surface rubbing and a little fraying at the top and bottom. The corners are a little rubbed and bumped and there is some light surface wear to the front and rear panels. Page edges a little browned. Original owner's name and date (1916) on the front free endpaper - this is given as Mary Twiney Montserrat, sister of Nicholas Monsarrat. Their mother favoured the alternative spelling of the surname which caused problems for Nicholas in later life. The endpapers are a little browned and there is a little spotting to the half-title page and to the pages at the back of the book but the pages are otherwise generally clean and unmarked. Three uncredited monochrome plates including the frontispiece. Sixteen page catalogue at the back of the book. First printing. N° de ref. del artículo 018386
