Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 3rd Edition. A very good copy (for its age) of this 3rd edition, in a single volume, of this remarkable collection of letters, edited by Charles Strachey and with notes by Annette Calthrop, and in a good Dust Jacket (for its age). The first Methuen edition was published in 1901 in 2 volumes, and the second, also in 2 volumes in 1924. This is the first single volume Methuen edition. Dust Jacket: pinkish paper with black lettering to front and spine; some darkening to the spine; rubbing and chipping to all edges but largely intact; remarkable for printed titles etc for a completely different book on the reverse; not price clipped (now protected). Cover: green cloth covered boards with gilt lettering to spine, in very good clean condition; some slight signs of edge wear and slight wrinkling of cloth to both boards; otherwise very clean and bright. Internally: very clean and tightly bound; some darkening to page edges; small neat gift inscription to 'Beryl' on verso of front free end paper and an equally neat caption "The letters of the Lady 'Cranley' to her daughter." underneath the pre-title; previous owner's name (also very neat) to front paste down. lxxx, 502 pp.…
