1979-1980 Nature Diary & All Good Things Around Us
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
Includes the first edition of 'Nature Diary' (1979) and the first Book Club Edition of 'All Good Things Around Us' (1980).
Both complete with the publisher's original unclipped dust wrappers.
'Nature Diary' by Janet Marsh serves as a record of the wildlife found in the Itchen Valley in Hampshire, told here through her diaries and beautiful watercolour illustrations. Marsh also adds her voice to a campaign protesting the extension of a motorway over the river.
'All Good Things Around Us' by Pamela Michael offers as a guide to the recognition and uses of over 90 wild plants and herbs, incorporating them here into recipes for teas, syrups, wines, jams and as seasonings for other miscellaneous savoury dishes. Illustrated in colour with watercolours by Christabel King.
Condition
In the original cloth binding for 'All Good Things' and original paper covered boards for 'Nature Diary', with gilt illustration stamped to the front board. Both in the original unclipped dust wrappers. Externally, excellent, with shelf wear only, slightly more notable to 'Nature Diary'. Dust wrappers are very smart, with slight sunning and edge wear to both. Marks to the wrap of 'All Good Things'. Internally, firmly bound with bright and clean pages.
