What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce

First edition. Scarce work. A charming and insightful collection of short accounts from the author's own experiences travelling in India, with titles such as: the butcher's strike, the reluctant adoption, the gate of bathing, an amateur parson, and the girl of great price. Written by Philip Ashby, a British travel writer. Dated from the British Library.

Condition

In the original blue cloth binding. Externally, smart with rubbing and light bumping to the extremities. Light fading to the spine with the odd small mark to the boards. Internally, firmly bound with front free endpaper detached. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot. Light age toning to the endpapers.

Very Good
