Not dated but c.1900-1910. 266pp plus publishers adverts bound in at rear. Colour plat frontis. Highly decorated blue cloth-covered boards, a little rubbed and frayed at extremities and gilding just a tad thinned on spine. Book design by one of the best designers of the period, Ethel Larcombe. Internally a little spotting, the odd mark and softness. Tight and square volume. Small 8vo. Imminently readable but what makes this book particularly desirable is the Glasgow Style inspired design by Ethel Larcombe. (Ethel Larcombe was a leading book designer often commissioned by Talwin Morris, the Art Director at Blackie and Sons between 1983 and 1909; Morris himself was a leading influence in the Glasgow Style, associating with the likes of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Margaret MacDonald and Frances and Herbert MacNair.) 0
