About This Item
Garden City: Doubleday, Doran & Co., 1938. Book. Near Fine. Cloth. First American. 8vo. First American. 8vo. Cloth binding, 295 pp., topstaining. Nichols is now best remembered for his gardening books, the first of which, Down the Garden Path. This book, however, is a political one. With incisive wit and extraordinary powers of observation, Nichols observes pre-World War II England, where the average Englishman pins his faith with smug complacency on the old myth that somehow England will muddle through, despite inadequate defences. Sunning to top edge of binding. Dust jacket is worn at extremities, chipped and price-clipped, repaired internally with archival tape. Near fine in good dust jacket, protected with a mylar cover..
