The short Foreword to this second edition states: "The first edition of this little book of memories was printed by my father's desire, & was for private circulation. It was so kindly received by my friends that I am now venturing to publish it, & in so doing I have added a chapter on my parents & made a few necessary alterations." Rare in any edition, especially in dw (illustrated with a portrait of the author in sheepskin jacket & Tommy's helmet). See illustrations on our website.
