Octavo hardcover (VG-) in d/w (G+) jacket scruffy: all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage costs.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some edge wear, rubbing, chipping and small loss to top and bottom of striking largely orange and yellow jacket and spine, corners rubbed and bruised, price clipped, small previous owner's name to top ffep, intern…ally clean tight and almost square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 317pp, illustrated. The Second World War had recently concluded, and life in England was still full of hardship and rationing. Is it any wonder then that when a visiting Spanish professor urged Swiss Argentine British Aime Tschiffely (1895-1954), to explore his sunny country, the ever wandering Tschiffely jumped at the chance? The only problem was that the English government prohibited any of its citizens to depart overseas with more than £50. Such a paltry amount would barely allow Tschiffely to stay alive and it immediately ruled out the idea of him buying and riding horses in search of Spanish adventure. Yet just when things look as bleak as a foggy London morning, a British motorcycle company offered to donate one of their new machines to the stranded traveller. The resulting trip saw Tschiffely joyfully roaming five thousand miles during a four month exploration through the country he labelled 'the land of the unexpected'. From Finisterre to Gibraltar, the fluent Spanish speaking Aime chatted to everyone including bootblacks, beggars and Benedictines. In a country which abounds in poetry and history he tracked down Phoenician legends, then danced till dawn with Gypsies. Someone once said, if Spain didn't exist, someone would have to invent it. Likewise we would feel the need to invent Aime Tschiffely, that literary angel of the Long Rider's world and heroic legend of 'Tschiffely's Ride, Southern Cross to Pole Star' 10,000 miles through South America and the USA, who wandered across the globe and through our hearts. A scarce book. Jacket, some maps and illustrations by the author, endpaper maps by A. Spark (illustratore).
