Descrizione

8vo., Second and Best Edition, half-title and title lightly spotted; handsomely bound in red full morocco, back gilt with raised bands lettered and tooled in gilt, uncut, a most attractive copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. Revised and corrected version of the first edition published earlier in the same year. THIS COPY WAS FORMERLY IN THE LIBRARY OF SIR REGINALD SPENCE WITH HIS FINE ENGRAVED ARMORIAL BOOKPLATE ON FRONT PASTE-DOWN. Sir Reginald Spence, prominent merchant, philanthropist and educationalist, spent much of his career in India. He was a prominent wine merchant (Master of the Worshipful Company of Distillers 1949-1950) and an eminent freemason (District Grand Master of Bombay and Northern India); the Reginald Spence Lodge was founded in his memory. A fervent educationalist, he co-founded Barnes School in Devlavi, one of the finest institutions of its type in Western India where a school house now bears his name. A NOTABLE ASSOCIATION COPY
