Alone

London, Chapman and Hall , 1921. First edition. Cloth. A lovely and scarce first edition copy of this travel work on Italy by Norman Douglas. The first edition of this work, a scarce volume. Although Norma Douglas was best known for his novel South WInd, it can be argued that some of his best works were his travel book, which not only documented new experiences with insight and humour, but also were written in a very charming prose. Alone is one of those books, recollecting travels through Italy.  In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally very smart with only minor shelfwear and slight bumping to the head and tail of the spine. The cloth to the spine has slightly faded. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are generally clean throughout with some slight tone ageing, as usual due to the type of paper used. Very Good Indeed . Ill.: None. Very Good Indeed .
