The Political Diaries of C.P. Scott, 1911-1928. Edited with an Introduction and Commentary by Trevor Wilson
London, Collins, 1970.
Octavo, 509 pages plus 8 pages of plates (several full-page).
Cloth slightly rubbed; slight signs of handling; an excellent copy with the very good dustwrapper a little creased, chipped and torn with slight loss to the extremities.
Presentation copy. Inscribed 'For Sir Walter Crocker / with very good wishes', dated (20 September 1989) and signed by the editor. Loosely inserted are an autograph letter signed from Wilson to Crocker (sent with the book) and a rough draft of Crocker's lengthy reply (essentially a personal review of the book). The book is peppered with Crocker's pencilled emphases and underlinings (with the occasional annotation and exclamation mark); the rear flyleaf bears an enigmatic series of his pencilled notations.
