SIGNED & DATED PRESENTATION COPY of the first printing of the Macmillan first British edition
Wilbur presented this as a gift to very close friends of his, David and Nel Davies, in Cape Town, South Africa.
The following is from their grandson:
"David and Nel (Nellie) were my grandparents who were good friends with Wilbur and his wife [Danielle]. My grandfather was a plastic surgeon and my grandmother was a nurse. My grandmother looked after Danielle when she fell ill as a favor to her and Wilbur....all the books were gifts to my grandparents over the years of friendship."
This book (canted) and dust jacket show signs of wear, use, toning, and having lived in humid Cape Town.
