Castanets at the Wells

London, Evans Brothers. 1957. Hardcover, 8vo - over 7¾ in. - 9¾ in.Tall. Ill.: Eve Guthrie. Book, Reprint. Hardcover very good condition in a good dust jacket. Chipped at top of dust jacket. Top corner of front board clipped. Pictorial endpapers. Lorna Hill was born in 1902, in Durham City, England. One day when Vicki was about ten, she appeared with a story her mother had written at school with a request that Mother write more stories about 'Marjorie & Co'. Lorna eventually penned eight books for her daughter, illustrated by herself, and that was when good fortune arrived in the shape of a publisher's reader who happened to stay with the family one weekend. He recommended an agent who sent the books as they were, in longhand, with Lorna's watercolour illustrations to a publisher,When both publishers dropped their Children's series in 1964, Lorna having typed (still using two fingers) forty books, Evans asked her to write a biography on dancer Marie Taglioni. This became 'La Sylphide'. Two adult novels followed from Robert Hale in 1978 but Lorna stopped writing. Very Good/Good.
