Laurie Lee
As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning
New York: Atheneum, 1969.
First printing
Laurie Lee's poetic follow-up to Cider With Rosie, (published in the US as The Edge of Day).
His descriptions of wandering England and Spain in the 1930s offer a shocking account of how rapidly the world went from the hardships and rhythms of medieval village life to the uncertainties of modern warfare, in the twentieth century.
A beautiful travel memoir, illustrated by Leonard Rosoman.
With former owner book plate and some creasing to jacket flaps.
