1931ref. 139703London: Eric Partridge at The Scholartis Press 1931. First edition first impression 1000 copies printed; presentation copy from one of the contributors inscribed on the front free endpaper "With love and affection Norman Hancock May 23 1931. And apologies for the Rabelaisia!" Hancock contributed the short story "War from the Ranks" described as "admirable" by John O'London's Weekly. That review continued "Here told with directness and entire simplicity we have the experiences of a lance-corporal in the infantry; this is more genuinely illuminating than a vast deal of the stuff that has appeared some of it with great success in the guise of fiction" newspaper clipping tipped-in dated in pencil 27.6.31. Hancock remains elusive but he may be the author of Interlude for John Dent 1932 and An Innocent Grows Up Dent 1947. This is an interesting Great War anthology comprising pieces by Conal O'Riordan Charles Edmonds C. W. Grundy concerning the WAAC John Brophy two contributions "Miles" Stephen Southwold E. C.

Jacket spine toned split at rear fold and with lateral closed-tears across spine panel extensive old paper repairs to verso top edge a little dusty fore-edge a touch foxed front board slightly splayed yet this remains a very good copy bright and sharp in the scarce dust jacket. hardcover
