Bookplate inserted; Includes loose piece of paper by “Lennie” in blue pen: “Over the years you have given me some wonderful books – your own “To the People of Britain” etc. – wonderful Shakespeares down to a second hand books [sic] of poems from a Launceston shop for the beauty of the cover rather than what’s inside the binding of the cover! Now I want the pleasure of giving you this one – only hoping the Deputy Whip’s judgment [sic] hasn’t turned “scatty”. Thank you for everything. Lennie’”
