Description

The first volume of Rev Stanley John Forrest's gently satirical clerical poetry, poking fun here at post war "bright ideas" in the church and beyond. Now largely forgotten, Forrest's books, always illustrated by his reverend brother, were highly popular from the 1950s to the 70s. Stock lightly toned, but otherwise all in VG internal order. Former owner's name in pencil to title page. Blue card covers lightly worn to edges, moreso to spine, and rather toned. This is a charity sale on behalf of Friends Of Morston Church (reg.1099831). 8vo. 32pp
