240pp. Occasional line drawings. In blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles on spine (boards just a little rubbed at spine tips). Internally neat, clean and bright barring a previous owner's name on the front free endpaper. In its original, slightly faded, dust jacket (very slightly bumped at edges). A delightful evocation of a departed way of life, acutely observed and affectionately remembered. Buchan grew up between the two wars and gently recalls his childhood in the Leicestershire village of Overton his Scottish mother settled in.
