First issue dust-jacket. An impressive example of the first U.K. printing of Summer Moonshine in the correct first issue dust-jacket. Former big-game hunter Sir Buckstone Abbott, finding himself hard up, takes in paying guests at his country pile, Walsingford Hall, aspiring to sell the place to a wealthy Princess - schemes, plots and romantic entanglements ensue with appropriately Wodehousian aplomb.

First UK Edition, first impression; 8vo; publisher's red cloth, titles to upper board and spine in black, top edge stained red, pictorial dust-jacket, lightly frayed with trivial loss at corners but overall a very good copy.

McIlvane A59b.
