HARDBACK - A very good book for its age, with light fading to the spine, with rubbing to the spines hinges. Internally, the book is free of any previous owner names or inscriptions. There is toning to the text block, with a small mark to the bottom corner of page two and three. The dust wrapper is in very good condition, with restoration performed to the spine tips, and also to the corners of the front and rear flap folds. The restoration is of the highest quality, performed by one of the UK's leading paper archivists, with the restoration blending in with the rest of the dust wrapper seamlessly. The dust wrapper is the correct uk first edition, first issue with the publishers printed price of 7s/6d.net present. Included with the book is a custom made clam shell box for the books future preservation. A very rare title to acquire, and only the second copy we have handled in over fifteen years of book selling.

Cold Comfort Farm is a comic novel by English author Stella Gibbons, published in 1932. The book parodies the romanticized, sometimes doom-laden accounts of rural life popularized by authors such as Mary Webb.
