Dust wrapper now protected in an archival-quality Mylar wrapper, fitted without the use of tape or adhesives.
A hard to find collection of humorous verses from John Collings Squire, the once popular but now largely, and unjustly, overlooked English historian, writer and literary editor. Squire occasionally wrote under the pen-name Solomon Eagle.
