Printing Details
First edition. Hardback in dustwrapper. 19 × 12.5cm, 192pp.
A series of autobiographical sketches by Anthony Carson, the British journalist and travel writer. "Here we see the small English schoolboy, Anthony ex-Falkenhausen Carson, transmogrified into the familiar larger-than-life adventurer, travelling to New Zealand to broaden his mind in a house named Kia Ora; thence, after an abortive attempt to land in the Far East, to Europe, love in a cottage, a film studio from which even the swans were eventually sacked, the army, and finally a job as courier for the Magic Carpet travel agency."
Condition
A very good copy, with some light wear to the wrapper and spotted foxing to the page edges.
