hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hard Cover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Dust jacket in a clear protective sleeve, unclipped, tears, . Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. Illustrated, photographs.280 pages clean and tight. Of Love and I4ar is a genuinely original and moving memoir of World War II centred on the handwritten diaries of an Australian officer, Captain Adrian Curlewis, who witnessed the fall of Singapore and spent nearly four years as a prisoner of the Japanese at Changi Gaol and on the notorious Burma-Thailand Railway. What makes this book unique is not only Adrian Curlewis's diary but also the interleaving of his entries with the letters sent by his wife Betty and the diary kept by his mother at home in Sydney. These give an intimate picture of a family parted by war -'1800 days of separated lives' in Adrian's phrase. Edited by Adrian's daughter nearly 40 years after they were written, these letters and diaries recreate the joys and sorrows of the war years more vividly than any novel or television series and cannot fail to engage the emotions of the most hardened reader.
