London: Cecil Palmer, 1927. First edition. Hardcover. ix, [iii], 280pp, with the frontis and 3 other plates (should be 4), and a number of illustrations in the text. The missing plate is of Low Lodging House, Ratcliff Highway. The first of Hopkins' books on London: he was also a ghost hunter, and is known for his books on ghosts. 1929 gift inscription to front endpaper. Pages clean, with some tanning to the endpapers, the half title, and the last text page, and a corner has been torn off p101/102, losing a few words from p.101. Fore-edge and bottom edge untrimmed. c.22x14.5cms, in the original binding of warm brown cloth, spine titled and boards ruled in black. Clean and firm, corners sharp, with slight bubbling of the cloth to the spine and the lower board, and a small knock to the top edge of the upper board. A title now scarce: a good, slightly defective copy. Good. Item #19271050
