Seller's Description
LAURIE LEE - 2 Vintage Paperbacks:
1) AS I WALKED OUT ONE MIDSUMMER MORNING.(Illustrated by Leonard Rosoman)
It was 1934. The young man walked to London from the security of the Cotswolds to make his fortune. He was to live by playing the violin and by a year's labouring on a London building site. Then, knowing one Spanish phrase, he decided to see Spain. For a year he tramped through a country in which the signs of impending civil war were clearly visible.
Thirty years later Laurie Lee captured the atmosphere of the Spain he saw with all the freshness and beauty of a young man's vision, creating a lyrical and lucid picture of the beautiful and violent country that was to involve him inextricably.
First published in 1969, this paperback reprint edition issued in 1981 by Penguin Books
2) CIDER WITH ROSIE. (With Drawings by John Ward)
Cider With Rosie puts on record the England we have traded for the petrol engine. Recalling life in a remote Cotswold village some fifty years ago, Laurie Lee conveys the semi-peasant spirit of a thousand-years-old tradition.
First published in 1959, this paperback reprint edition issued in 1973 by Peguin Books
