Vera Brittain – Testament of Youth – First UK Edition 1933
£3,750.00
A first edition, first printing published by Gollancz in 1933. A very good book without inscriptions with some spotting to the edges and some light fading to the spine. In a very good dust wrapper which is unclipped. The wrapper has benefitted from two areas of restoration – the tail of the spine and to the top of the front panel. Corners with a little loss and a small chip to the top of the spine. Excessively scarce to find the dust wrapper in any condition. Brittain’s autobiographical story of the years 1900-1925 and a cornerstone of WW1 literature. Rare
