Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First published in 1944, and now reissued with a new section of black and white plates, this book has become a classic on its subject, and may be said to have started a revival of interest in the English Waterways. It was on a spring day in 1939 that L.T.C. Rolt first stepped aboard "Cressy". This engaging book tells the story of how he and his wife adapted and fitted out the boat as a home and recreates the journey of some 400 miles they made along the network of waterways in the Midlands. It recalls the boatmen and their craft, and celebrates the then seemingly timeless nature of the English Countryside through which they passed. A green coloured, hardback book, with dust jacket and translucent cover over the jacket. The book is in really good condition, normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. 212 pages all intact, all pages, text and illustrations are in really good, clean, readable order. The author L.T.C. Roth founded the Inland Waterways Association, and was instrumental in encouraging interest in Britain's Industrial heritage at Talylln and elsewhere. A nice informative book, that is not only a good read, but helps readers through the authors' first hand experiences with transforming his narrow boat and of travelling along the waterways.…

A near fine, tight, clean copy in very good plus, slightly creased and rubbed, bright, clean dustwrapper. Leonard Russell was an influential British editor and writer best known for founding and editing The Saturday Book, an annual miscellany of stories, essays, and artwork that celebrated British culture and creativity. The publication, which ran from 1941 to 1975, became a beloved institution, showcasing an eclectic range of contributions from well-known writers, poets, and artists of the time. Born in 1906, Russell had a rich literary career, working as a newspaper editor for The Sunday Times before turning his attention to The Saturday Book. His aim with this collection was to provide readers with a light-hearted and stimulating escape, particularly during the difficult years of the Second World War and post-war Britain. The annual featured a variety of content—fiction, poetry, photography, and essays—on topics as varied as literature, art, history, and travel, all delivered with a distinctly British charm and wit. The Saturday Book became known for its celebration of British eccentricities and traditions. Russell's editorial voice was central to this, as he carefully curated a mix of the whimsical, the nostalgic, and the thought-provoking. Contributors included literary figures such as George Bernard Shaw, Evelyn Waugh, and Vita Sackville-West, alongside artists like Edward Ardizzone. While Leonard Russell passed away in 1974, just before the series came to a close, The Saturday Book remains a treasured collection that provides a snapshot of mid-20th-century British life and thought, filled with the charm, wit, and idiosyncrasies that defined the era. A scarce association copy. Signed by Author(s). …
