Fermor, Patrick Leigh - Between the Woods and the Water - ( Item 137485 )
Published in London by Folio Society. 2006. First Thus. Near Fine Hardback. Page edges slightly marked. No inscriptions or bookplates. Near Fine slipcase. Very slight marks to slipcase. On foot to Constantinople: from the Hook of Holland to the Middle Danube. This is the first book of two describing a 1,200 mile walk from Holland to Constantinople undertaken in 1934 when the author was 18 years old. The book was written some forty years later, events and people recalled from memory and notes in a diary. The language of this book is pure poetry, just a delight to read. The author beautifully describes amazing countryside, castles, rivers, fascinating and incredibly generous people and a way of life in parts of Europe that were forever destroyed by the war. He walked through Germany during the time that Nazism was in the ascendancy, giving hope and optimism to a nation that had long been on its knees. It is fascinating to read about the excitement that Nazism brought to Germany in 1934 with the knowledge of the destruction and horror that it brought to the World just a few short years later. Illustrated by Mary Kuper.
