A WESTMINSTER CHILDHOOD

by John Raynor

Illustrated by Dennis Flanders

Published by Cassell & Company Limited. 1st. 1973

Slightly better than very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. When John Raynor, composer of nearly 700 song settings, died so tragically in a road accident in 1970, he left behind not only his lifetime's musical work, but the manuscript of this enchanting account of the years of his childhood.

A few marks to outer page edges. Wrapper is price-cut with a little edge-creasing.
