Description

ND. 1928 (WorldCat). As you might guess from the title, Summers does not hold back in his assessment of all that is wrong with England between the wars. Alarmingly, much of it reads as if written by some of today's more extreme commentators. Misogyny abounds. Printed on cheap stock which is thus toned, but otherwise all is in VG internal order. Smart yellow boards with black titling a little dulled to edges and spine. 12mo. 123pp
