When the Going was Good β Waugh, Evelynβ hardback
When the Going was Good by Waugh, Evelyn. This item was published by The Reprint Society, perhaps in 1948. It is a hardback of 314 pages, weighing 11oz and the condition is G/NA.
This book is solid, straight and tight, with a slight spine lean. Green cloth covers and gold embossed spine panel are light to moderately abraded/insect damaged. There is some foxing-type staining to endpapers. There is an owner inscription in ink inside the front cover, but no other markings of any kind.
About the book:
When The Going Was Good presents five long excerpts from the four travel books Evelyn Waugh wrote between 1929 and 1935, chosen by the author. Starting with a tour of Mediterranean pleasure dens, Waugh pushes on to Abyssinia (where he reports indelibly on the coronation of Haile Selassie), across the continent of South Africa, to the wilds of Brazil and British Guiana, and back to Abyssinia in the wake of the Italian invasion.
