A propos de cet article

Stated First Edition. You can see the covers in the photographs. The gilt lettering on the front is quite bright. The covers are very clean (the dark areas in the photographs are part of the book's normal coloration). The spine does have a little bit of creasing. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout, and nicely tight covers as well. The pages are all very clean and bright. I'm not seeing any soiling. I'm not seeing any creasing. There are no marking. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else in the book. Printed by Suverna, Sardar Estate, Ajwa Road, 2005. Hardcover. Written by Umashankar Joshi. Translated into English by Sudarshan V. Desai. Stated First Edition. Here is a rather rare book. In fact I didn't see another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. Umashankar Jethalal Joshi (Gujarati: ઉમાશંકર જોશી) (21 July 1911 – 19 December 1988) was an eminent poet, scholar and writer. He received the Jnanpith Award in 1967 for his contribution to Indian, especially Gujarati literature. Please take a look at the photographs. This book, published in 2005, is in Very Good condition. The gilt lettering on the front is quite bright. The covers are very clean (the dark areas in the photographs are part of the book's normal coloration). The book is in very solid shape, solidly bound throughout. The spine does have a little bit of creasing. The pages of the book are white and bright. I don't see any soiling. There isn't any writing/underlining anywhere in the book. There are no markings. No creases. There is a Foreword by Svati Joshi, the son of the poet. That is followed by a seven-page autobiography titled Umashankar In His Own Words. And before the poems begin there are several pages written by the translator. Umashankar Joshi was also an activist. He joined the freedom struggle led by Gandhi and gained an understanding of history in his youth. In 1929, he joined the struggle by participating in the 34-day strike called by the students of Gujarat College. In 1930, he took an active part in the Freedom Struggle and joined Viramgam Camp as a satyagrahi. After that, he was imprisoned for fourteen weeks in Sabarmati jail and tent-jail at Yerwada. Then in 1931, he attended the National Conference of Congress at Karachi and stayed at Gujarat Vidyapith. He was Imprisoned for the second time for eight months, at Sabarmati and Visapur jails in 1932.…

Description de la boutique

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
