Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First edition - Victor Gollancz Left Book Club edition - 'not for sale to the public'. Loosely inserted is an original Left Book Club membership leaflet [please see scans] ***Very good in the standard Gollancz orange limp cloth covers with black titles. The covers are clean and unmarked but do have some creasing. Corners and edges slightly worn and rubbed. The cloth covering to the spine is slightly wrinkled but the spine is tight with no tears. Some darkening to the top edge of the page block. Internally also very good with no inscriptions, just an original owner's ink stamp 'Cosker' and a tiny bookseller's label 'The Bookromm, 10 East Street, Okehampton Tel 2848' on the front free endpaper. The pages are clean, with just very light foxing to the preliminary and last pages. Top corner of first few pages slightly creased but no tears. The paper stock has not really tanned over the decades - still quite clean and white. No dustwrapper as issued. ***287 pages. 185mm x 123mm. ***Contents: Chapter I. Introductory, II. Historical Retrospect, III. Trade Union and Co-operative Movements, IV. Constitution, V. Labour Party Method, VI. Socialist Objective, VII. Short Programme, VIII. Foreign Policy, IX. The Commonwealth and the Empire, X. Labour and Defence, XI. Prospect. ***'Some thirty years ago, when I was a young barrister just down from Oxford, I engaged in various forms of social work in East London. The condition of the people in that area as I saw them at close quarters led me to study their causes and to reconsider the assumptions of the social class to which I belonged. I became an enthusiastic convert to Socialism. I joined the Fabian Society and the Independent Labour Party and became a member of my trade union, the National Union of Clerks. For many years I worked as a rank and file member of the movement, taking my share of the work of branch activities and propaganda meetings at street corners. I shared the hopes and disappointments incidental to Socialist work in what was then a very backward area. [Quote taken from the Introductory chapter] ***''Clement Richard Attlee, 1st Earl Attlee, KG, OM, CH, PC, FRS (3 Jan 1883 - 8 Oct 1967) was a British politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1945 to 1951 and Leader of the Labour Party from 1935 to 1955. He was Deputy Prime Minister during the wartime coalition government under Winston Churchill, and served twice as Leader of the Opposition from 1935 to 1940 and from 1951 to 1955.' [Wiki] ***A first edition published by Victor Gollancz in a Left Book Club edition in very good condition considering its age and fragility of production. With additional interesting LBC ephemera. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
