David Grayling Books - Fine Sporting Books

Illustrated. Near fine in frayed dw.
Original photo of the author and his family inserted; inscribed on verso by Bruce Kinloch. Also a considerable number of typed - mainly very humerous - poems by Owen, mostly initialled by him, plus several ink ms. notes (including a letter to Bruce Kinloch). It appears that Owen was an aspiring scribe, and this batch of material came from Bruce Kinloch's collection of papers, books etc. Bruce has clipped these together, and labelled them "The aspiring Kipling!" A unique collection of Owen/Kinloch ephemera. (T.R.H. OWEN - Sudan Political Service, 1926-1953 including appointments in Bahr el Ghazal, White Nile, Kassala, Kordofan and Equatoria provinces, and in the Civil Secretary's Office; Governor Bahr el Ghazal, 1948-1953 )
