1926 The London Year: A Book of Many Moods
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon
Journalist and travel author H. V, Morton takes his readers through a year in London. A charming narrative detailing the typical year in the largest city in and capital of the United Kingdom, with chapters focussing on each month. For example, in June, one might have seen the King on his birthday and have a tea-party in Mayfair, and in December, one could admire the mistletoe in Covent Garden before saying goodbye to a London year.
In second-person narration. The first edition of this work, an uncommon copy.
Decorated in text and with full page plates by A. E. Horne.
