This catalog includes introductory essays about the life and work of the Shropshire novelist and poet, Mary Webb (1881-1927), as well as synopses of her novels. Webb's work is explored in depth through over 180 items, many of which are Webb's original manuscripts and typescripts. Dr. Gladys Mary Coles, Webb's biographer and author of The Flower of Light, contributes the foreword, and an essay, Mary Webb--A Modern Writer. Included as a second volume is a special edition of Webb's hitherto unpublished juvenile work Clematisa & Percival, printed letterpress on imported mould-made paper, with six full color tip-ins of artwork by Bill Bisphop created specially for this publication.
