Pigeon Press, 1981. Small tears to dustwrapper, otherwise good.

A world away, and to most of us the period of this book-1896 to 1930-is indeed far away.for him,at the age of 18,the comfortable era of country home, private school,and public school came to a sudden end, memories of Gallipoli, of flying in the R F C of Egypt, of Palestine, then the change into peacetime jobs in many countries into the art and finally into marriage, all these go to colour these sketches of that lost world.
