About This Item
London T. Werner Laurie, [1930]. 8vo. Original blue cloth, lettered in gilt, with the rarely seen dust-wrappers (not price-clipped); pp. 330, plates after photographs and facsimiles, sketch maps; wrapper minimally frayed and spotted; offsetting from edndpapers to beginning and end, otherwise a little spotted; an exceptional copy in the superior binding, not lettered in yellow. First edition, in the first issue binding and the dust-wrappers. Frank Percy Crozier was a controversial Anglo-Irish soldier who first served in South Africa, Sudan, on the Western Front, in Lithuania as military advisor, and most importantly in Ireland from the latter part of WW1 on wards, where he slowly, and painfully, turned pacifist, disgusted by the British (and his) conduct in Ireland. 'He was largely responsible for the downfall of the Coalition Government over the Irish Policy in 1912' (front flap).
