Title: A horse for the island.
Description: London, Hamish Hamilton, 1952. 1st edition. Hardbound with dustjacket, 20cmx13,5cm, Dustjacket sl. damaged. Illustrated by the author. On the island of Limone, when the century was young, only a few privileged and travelled elders had seen a horse. So it was news of the first magnitude when Torlao brought Cavallo from his old home on the mainland to help him work on his farm. The fact that Tarloa, although an Italian, was a newcomer to the island, a farmer and wine-grower among fishermen, added salt to the village gossip. 213 pag.
