England Your England and Other Essays

First edition. Small 8vo. 224pp. Publisher's pale green linen cloth, lettered and ruled in crimson-red to spine. Top-edge pink stained. Plain green dustwrapper, printed in cream white and green (priced 12s. 6d. net to front flap).

A touch of offsetting to endpapers, faint impression of title to upper board, else internally fresh, sans any fading to dustwrapper spine to which this title is notoriously prone to.

A posthumous collection of eleven essays written between 1937 and 1948, most of which make their first appearance in book form in this volume. The title essay was originally published in The Lion and the Unicorn, whilst an additional two saw first publication in The Road to Wigan Pier.
