Published first in the darkest days of the war, Other Men's Flowers encouraged and pleased many thousands of readers, some of whom had perhaps never read a line of poetry before. It charmed others by its skilful association of familiar poets with those not so well known. This memorial edition has a new preface written by Lord Wavell's son explaining how the book came into being and the pleasure its reception gave to the compiler. A very good clean hardback which has a couple of little stains to red top page edge, in unclipped dustwrapper which shows signs of edgwear. 448 pages including index. Next post UK dispatch.
