Description: Book is Fair in no dust jacket. Paperback binding, 6th impression, C. Arthur Pearson, London, 1920. A collection of useful Scouting tips originally featured in "The Scout" since its first number. The front cover is missing, and the spine strip is very ragged with only the words "Scout's Should Know" remaining. It would be a simple matter to glue on a replacement cover if required, as the text block is still sound. The paper is yellowed, but still supple and very readable with many diagrams about sailing, camping, signalling, codes, etc. 164pp. Size 12mo keywords: Boy Scouts Scouting

Title: Mountain Patriots: A Tale of the Reformartion in Savoy
Description: Book is Poor in no dust jacket. Brown cloth binding, First Edition, William P. Nimmo, Edinburgh, 1869. A very battered and grubby copy, with the text block split and loose fron the case, which is OK apart from cornerwear and extreme dullness. This was an attractive book once, with engraved plates and all edges gilt, now alas faded. The parts are complete, and the restorer's charm could doubtless make it attractive once more. An enjoyable period read as-is. Size 16mo keywords: Savoy Switzerland
