Description: Grant Richards,, 1916. Oblong 4to., First Edition, with cartoons throughout, some light age-soiling as usual; original pictorial boards, ivory cloth backstrip lettered in black, very neatly recased with original front cover (moderately age-marked) laid down, a good, bright, firm copy. Featuring 'Sergeant Tombs, whose Passion for Experiment led him to Destruction'. A wonderful example of sardonic 'Tommy' humour from the trenches, somewhere between Belloc's 'Cautionary Tales' and Graham's 'Ruthless Rhymes'. SCARCE.
