Bookseller Notes

The copy of artist Barbara Bagenal (ne Hiles), who entered the Bloomsbury Group alongside her Slade-friend Carrington; she assisted the Woolfs with their early printing and had relationships with Clive Bell, Saxon Sydney-Turner, David Garnett and John Maynard Keynes.A biography of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's dog 'Flush', an inspiration to its owner and a character deserving of celebration. Called a 'Large Paper' edition on the dustjacket, and certainly amply-margined - this presumably to distinguish it from the subsequent 'uniform' edition.

Description
