Very Good Condition, a little edge and shelf wear, previous owners inscription on front flyleaf, a little rubbing to edges and corners, dustjacket shows some edge and shelf wear with rubbing, creasing, chips and tears (see photographs)

'In short, Picnic Races is the rich and mirthful story of a row between neighbours - a ding-dong feud fought out with zest and guile and sheer bullheaded cussedness by stubborn Australians.  There is enormous fun in it, tempered by pungent comment and shrewd appraisal.'
