LARK RISE

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original light brown cloth with gilt titles over burgundy to the spine, in the Lynton Lamb illustrated dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth and gilt bright and fresh. The contents, with a previous owner's name in ink on the front endpaper and some spotting to the prelims and closed text block edge, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has several short closed tears and some chipping with a little loss at the spine tips and fold corners. Clipped and re-priced by the publisher (8s 6d net to the lower front flap), as issued.

The first book in Flora Thompson's semi-autobiographical Lark Rise to Candleford series. Adapted for television by the BBC over four series between 2008 and 2011.
