12° (138 x 88mm). Folding engraved frontispiece, woodcut tailpiece on p. 9. Original brown printed wrappers (spine worn, upper cover detaching). Provenance: W. Skinner (contemporary signature at head of front cover).
SEVENTH EDITION, smaller in size than previous ones and with the price reduced from 2/- to 1/-. This edition (and subsequent ones) features a new version of the frontispiece, the two poplar trees are taller, and two flocks of birds are taking flight. The woodcut tailpiece shows a fortification. Although the binding needs some repair, this is a clean, unsophisticated copy in the original printed wrappers. Allen 17; Hancock, Handbook Edition 7th; Padwick 383.
