Winston S. Churchill

My Early Life: A Roving Commission. London: Thornton Butterworth Ltd., 1930

8vo. Photographic frontispiece, maps, plans, one folding map, 16 tipped-in illustrations. Original magenta cloth cover and spine gilt-lettered.

FIRST ENGLISH EDITION, FIRST PRINTING in the second state binding. Arguably Winston Churchill's most entertaining book, a memoir of youth and wayward school boyhood—in fact, the only volume of personal memoirs that Churchill ever wrote.
