ARBUTHNOT, Sir Alexander J.
Memories of Rugby and India.
Edited by Constance, Lady Arbuthnot.
First edition. "Self-effacing, well-mannered, dignified, and most sober would properly describe the memoirs of Arbuthnot's thirty-eight years of civil administration in India" (Riddick).
Octavo. Original blue cloth, title gilt to the spine and to the upper board together with the Arbuthnot arms in silver and pale blue, top edge gilt. Portrait frontispiece and 15 other plates. Light browning to the endpapers, a little foxing to the edges, else a very good copy.
