Liberalism and the Social Problem
Hodder & Stoughton, London, 1909, hardcover. Second edition of the obscure but important title, consisting of speeches by the young reforming liberal that was pre 1910 Churchill. Really just a reprint as only one minor correction has been discovered. Bound same as first in smooth burgundy cloth, gilt titles on spine, author’s signature blocked on cover. Cohen states 1000 copies. Cohen A29.1.b Original cloth is clean with god colour, gilt slightly dull but clear and readable. This copy has a gift inscription 1910 in Canada on the free endpaper, and this likely explains why the contents are so clean and free of usual foxing. Spine nicely rounded, edges even, dent on lower edge of front cover. (A15b). Item #36800
