Only Pat: A Nairobi School-girl
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
An accomplished linguist, and a prolific author of girls' school stories, May Baldwin's work - according to Sue Sims' and Hilary Clare's "The Encyclopedia of Girls' School Stories" - is far less nationalistic than that of other early contributors to the genre, perhaps owing to her own international education, and frequent travel to see her many friends, worldwide. "This story of a girl's travels, and school- life in Kenya Colony, will be thoroughly enjoyed by most girls. Pat is a lively jolly girl, and can hold her own with wit and humour." -from: The Publishers' Circular and Booksellers' Record: Volume 117, 1922. Not dated, but probably c 1920. Very scarce item. Good condition. No highlighting or other notes. Slightly foxed, but only on title page. Pictorial board covers are intact with strong hinges.
