OLIVER ONIONS ‘BELLS RUNG BACKWARDS’ 1953 1S EDITION.

Book Description: Staples, London, 1953., 1953. 285 pp, 8vo (8" H), hard cover in dust jacket.   Long out of print, today these stories are hard to come by. They represent the author's best work in this genre. What are ghosts for if not to walk again? The ghosts in this book are no ordinary spectres with clanking chains, but creatures of flesh and blood archored to the past. From the past they come, bewildered and unhappy, and to the past they must return until recalled yet once again by a summons from the world of mortal men.

Dustwrapper stained and chipped, heavily bumped at top and bottom of spine, uncut, book foxed on first blank fly only.  Remainder is clean, tightly bound.  A pretty good all round copy, DW Gppd+, Book Very Good.
