BRYHER. (Pseudonym W. Ellerman). Roman Wall.
London: Collins, 1955.
1st ed. "This story takes place seventeen hundred years ago round Aventicum and Orba, a lonely outpost of the Roman Empire in Switzerland, when the German tribes were massing on the far bank of the Rhine... moments of exciting liveliness and colour alternate with descriptions of strange poetic charm, while throughout there is an underlying sense of doom as the walls of the Roman Empire begin to crumble." Pp.192, + 1 map, uneven toning to endpapers. Red cloth with black cloth spine, gilt title to spine, illustrated d/w by Sheila Stratton has tears to top and lower edge of spine. G+/G.
