Description

Excellently written and fascinating collection of letters and occasional poems describing a 15 month long trip to Iceland during 1948-49. Superbly illustrated by British-born Icelandic artist Arnason. In good internal order. Ex-lib, indicated by stamps and label residue to endpapers. No other library marks. Hinges opening, but binding remaining firm. Silver-decorated black cloth worn to edges and dulled to spine. 8vo. 128pp.
