As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning

LEE, Laurie

SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR

LEE, Laurie As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning

Deutsch, 1969.

First edition. Original orange boards lettered in gilt in pictorial dustwrapper. Signed by the author on the half title. A fine copy in a near fine (price clipped) dustwrapper.

Lee's lyrical account of his journeys as a young man in the 1930s is a "masterpiece in English Travel writing" [Telegraph review]. This sequel to Cider with Rosie describes the time when he left home to go to London and thence to Spain armed with little more than an adventurous spirit and a violin. His description of a country teetering on the brink of civil war has become a classic, celebrated for its evocation of a long-shattered world, and for the lushness of its language.
