Further complicating matters is that Lister and Plimsoll are respectively courting Prudence Garland and Veronica Wedge, Emsworth's nieces.

8vo.. There is a minor binding error where the front pastedown has not been correctly trimmed in its top half and so extends to the edge of the front board instead of leaving the few mm. margin. There is also some minor spotting of the edges but otherwise the book is clean and fine. The dw. is price clipped and has a 12mm. closed tear of the top edge of the front panel and some othe minor edge wear. Still a very attractive copy and competitively priced.. Book Condition: Near Fine. Binding: Hard Cover. Jacket: Near Fine
