‎A Romantic's Guide to the Country Inns of Britain and Ireland inscribed‎

‎<p>New York: W. W. Norton 1979 1st ed. INSCRIBED on ffep by author. xxii 266pp. illus. brown cloth 12mo: near Fine in a near Fine dj in Brodart poly cover dj = several extremely tiny nicks or rubs @ extremities; front fold is bottom corner clipped but not price clipped; else nrF Publisher's gold foil label with review blurbs from Susan Heath writing in "Saturday Review" and Craig Claiborne is affixed to front cover. Popular novelist and quondam Georgian Stuart Woods's 1938-2022 second book after "Blue Water Green Skipper" written according to the author "on a whim." Following this book Woods went on to fortune and fame with "Chiefs" his first novel set in his native Georgia and the many other thrillers to follow. This is a particularly nice copy of a scarce volume in that Woods's signature is legible because it had not yet degenerated into the successful author's doodle that now passes for his autograph. This is a great collectible copy for Woods completeists. Mr. Woods himself says on his personal website: "If you wish to buy a copy of my elderly guidebook A Romantic's Guide to the Country Inns of Britain and Ireland you will have to go to a great many garage sales." Save yourself the mileage and the heartache and buy it here.</p> New York: W. W. Norton hardcover‎
