Arthur Ransome
Pigeon Post
London: Jonathan Cape, 1953
Eighteenth printing
The sensation of the children's book category in the 50s and 60s, Arthur Ransome's adventures for teenagers cannot help but feel a little dated now.
However, with their unbridled enthusiasm for all outdoor skills, particularly camping and sailing, they still provide hearty advice and a bracing approach to FUN, not found on the average millennial's phone.
With drawings by the author and a previous owner's book plate.
