David Millward (illustrator). Contains inscription to previous owner and letter of thanks. Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Dust jacket soiled. Some staining on page edges. 'Bound Upon a Course' takes a generous glance at the life of the celebrated biographer, John Stewart Collis. In this autobiography, Collis recounts his difficult childhood in Ireland, his decision to write, the years spent on the cultural fringe in London, and his acquaintance with the literary personalities of Rose Macaulay, W B Yeats and T S Eliot. But it was his decision to work on the land in 1940, which marked a watershed in his career. These rural experiences shaped his philosophy and resulted in the undisputed classic 'The Worm Forgives the Plough'. Subtle, modest and acutely perceptive, this is an intriguing portrait of a man who was a unique synthesis of scientist, scholar and poet. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 00047
