Description:
London: Readers Union / J. M. Dent, 1941. 1st thus. h/b. Very good, 1st thus edition (Readers Union), pub 1 year after original; blue blochtbound boards, spine faded, white spine titling/design; text block firm; pages crisp and unmarked (owner's neat inscription ffep).. 12mo (190 x 130 / 7_"" x 5""). In 1939, on the eve of the Second World War, Robert Gibbings launched his home-made punt on the River Thames and began a slow journey downstream, armed with a sketchpad and a microscope. From the river's source at the edge of the Cotswold Hills to the bustle of London's docks, Sweet Thames Run Softly is a charming, often eccentric, account of an artist-naturalist adrift in English waters. First published as the Battle of Britain raged overhead, this gentle boating tale was an antidote to the anxieties of wartime and became an immediate best-seller.
