Rezensionen
The Week-End Book von Francis Meynell
Pretty much what I expected and yet utterly charming and random. I liked the pocket summary of astronomy circa 1930s and now I know the difference between flotsam and jetsom.
Except for the introductory essay by Julian Fellowes, this book is a complete waste of time, money, and space. I'd give it negative stars if the system allowed it.
It's not much of a read, but it's a fun book just to have. In fact, it seems to encourage my family to spend more weekends having fun than working.
19th ed. Wonderful color chapter illustrations. This is the new edition, 1st printing. 1st pub. 1924, 332p was not illustrated.18 previous printings from the 1st ed.
