Summer Term at St. Clare's
Methuen & Co. Ltd., 1943.
First edition. 8vo. Red cloth, lettered in white and with a vignette in black, in the original pictorial dustwrapper illustrated by Lindsay Cable. Line drawings by W. Lindsay Cable. A near fine copy, slight rubbing to the corners, in a very good dustwrapper, which has nicks to the corners and spine ends, a short split to the hinge of the front flap, and has the usual dustiness, but remains a complete and attractive example of an uncommon item.
The third in the St. Clare's series. A fragile war time production and most uncommon.
Many of Enid Blyton's stories were based on her own or her daughter's experiences, with school stories featuring snapshots of daily life gleaned from Gillian and Imogen, "games of hockey, lacrosse and tennis, the little spites and deceits of school life, the loyalty and generosities of friendship".
