J C Squire - Life At The Mermaid, Collins, 1927, 1st

J C Squire - Life At The Mermaid and other essays, Collins, 1927, 1st Edition

A hardback book with dust jacket in a fine condition.  A gilt top edge and a surviving dust jacket.  Some of these essays are new in book form.  Life At The Mermaid is on page 121 and J C Squire chose to name the book after this title because it gave the most thoroughly misleading impression of the nature and interest of the book.  With black and white illustrations.

Condition:  A good neat book.  Text firm and clean.  Pencil notation to endpaper.  Age darkened dust jacket inside with bumps, tears and a missing corner.  A very good book.

Weight  260g.  Pages  248.
