presentation copy to her sister-in-law Georgia Sitwell

Inscribed by the author in black ink to her sister-in-law on the front free endpaper, 'For / my darling Georgia / with very best love / from Edith'.

First edition, inscribed by the author to Georgia Sitwell; 8vo; slight toning to leaves, Sunday Times newspaper clipping dated 1945 loosely inserted; publisher's dark blue cloth, gilt lettering to spine, slight spotting to covers, with the unclipped dust-jacket, edges and spine ends slightly chipped, with NPG tissue wrapping with printed label, overall a very good copy.
