First Edition Hardback with illustrated dustjacket in very good condition. Bound in the publisher's original rich green cloth with embossed detail to the front and rear boards and gilt titles to the spine. There is a very light crease to the top right-hand corner otherwise in very good condition. The dustjacket shows a little wear along the top edge with light surface wear to the lower right-hand corner. Price clipped. Patterned endpapers with no previous owners' instructions or bookplates. The pages are very clean throughout with a beautiful illustration to each chapter heading. pp. 111. John Betjeman's personal and intimate poems have always held the promise of a more sustained autobiography. Summoned by Bells is this autobiography and it is, as one hoped, in verse, the clear, accomplished, captivating, unabashedly musical verse which has made his Collected Poems a best seller.
