About This Item
Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1981. Very good- (ex-library book with evidence of pocket removals, withdrawn stamp on first free endpaper, library stamp on title page and on top page edges, all neatly done; one bumped corner and light scratch on front cover) in very good dust jacket (sunned spine, price-clipped). In spite of this lengthy disclaimer, this is in fact an attractive book. This is one in the series of "Small Oxford Books." Tomalin, the compiler, pulls together writings from a nearly 500 year span, ranging from a Venetian envoy to the court of Henry VII (1497), who remarks on the lack of affection English parents manifest toward their children, to Margaret Drabble, Alison Lurie, and Michael Frayn. Tomalin includes an index to the writers and bridges the quotations with her own commentary.. 1st Edition. Hard Cover.
