Title: The Village Book.
Description: Jonathan Cape, London, 1930. 1st Edition. Hardcover. First Edition (first printing). 8vo. 342pp. Brown smooth-weave cloth lettered in gold at the spine and with Williamson's ubiquitous owl logo gold-stamped to the upper board. Portrait frontispiece. Spine ends bruised and with a bump to the tip of one corner. Some light partial browning to the free endpapers. A very good copy in very good price-clipped dust wrapper, with just a trace of the customary spine panel tanning, a little light edge wear and some lifting to the upper edge. A selection of tales and sketches written during the period Williamson lived in the north Devon village of Georgeham ('Ham'), in-part inspired by various village characters. Very Good/Very Good.
