1917 A Tale of a Casualty Clearing Station
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce
The first edition.
In the publisher's original cloth.
A very scarce work.
This autobiographical work was written anonymously under the name 'A royal field leech', but has been attributed by some to be F. A. Symons. The work provides an account of the author's experiences through WWI during their time at a clearing hospital, a facility for treating wounded soldiers on the front lines.
Condition
In the publisher's original cloth. Externally very smart with a slight lean, minor fading to the spine, the odd mark to the boards and slight bumping and rubbing to the extremities. Offsetting and pencil notations to the endpapers with an ink inscription to the front free endpaper. Internally firmly bound with minor age toning to the extremities, with occasional spotting.
Very Good
