FARRAR, FREDERIC W. INTRODUCTION BY JOHN ROWE TOWNSEND.

Eric, Or, Little By Little: A Tale of Roslyn School.

Hamish Hamilton, London, 1971, new edition. (First published 1858). 288 pp, 8vo (8 7/16" H), hard cover in dust jacket. A story of school life in Victorian England, in which the hero, who starts out well, is drawn into a life of cheating, bullying, swearing, smoking, and drinking to the dismay of his friends. "Des pite - or perhaps even because of? - its high moral fervour, the book remains surprisingly readable, and in his Introduction to the present edition John Rowe Townsend argues most pesuasively that it still has much to offer present-day readers. I t i s, he says, 'a moral cliff hanger in which the hero slips perilously from ledge to ledge, in ever greater danger of being dashed to eternal ruin on the rocks below'. It is also a book of enormous vitality, undeniably preposterous, but never du ll ; a period piece which can be laughed at for its excesses but nonetheless deserves its place as a significant milestone of children's literature." Large Christmas inscription on front free endpaper, two tiny corner bumps. Dust jacket has sli ght f adi ng to color on spine and parts of front panel, light wrinkling at top/bottom of flap-folds and hinges, slight rubbing, soft crease on front panel. Very Good/Very Good-.
