HUGHES, Ted. Three Books: Remains of Elmet; Cave of Birds; River. London: Faber and Faber. 1993.

8vo. Original soft card covers, with illustration by Leonard Baskin to front cover; pp. ix, [1, (blank)], 186, [8, (blank); fading to spine, minor rubbing to corners and minimal scuffing to top and bottom of spine with light white mark to rear cover, creasing to hinge of spine to front cover; near fine; authorial inscription “For Nick / with love / from / Ted / weekend of 5th December 1993” and drawing of a fish and a fly in black ink to front free endpaper (see below).

First edition, warmly inscribed by Hughes to his friend and angling companion Nick Grant, and with a charming drawing of a fish and a fly by the poet.

This collection of poems is the first combined edition of Cave Birds (1978), Remains of Elmet (1979), and River (1983).

Provenance: From the library of Nick Grant (d. 2018). Grant and Hughes had spent much time fishing together and attempting to improve the quality of the waterways in the United Kingdom; both were donors to the Westcountry Waters Trust. This inscription beautifully captures their friendship and shared interests.

Purchased several shirts, all were great quality. You never know what you’ll get when you purchase sight unseen, these are worth it. Great value, style, and comfort. Color is exactly what you see online. True to size.

For work or casual wear, this polo is a great choice.
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Port Stripe, Size: X-Large
I really like this polo. I've been wearing it once a week or every other week since November. Its very comfortable and breathable. This polo feels like it should last a while. The fit is good. I typcally wear XL and this XL fits great. I've pruchased it in both burgundy and black so far. I definitely recommend this shirt. For work or casual wear, this will look good.

Great value: These are my go-to work from home shirt
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Blue, Size: X-Large
I’ve been pleasantly surprised by these shirts and wear them weekly for Zoom calls, since I’m still working from home these days. I figured at the price point it was worth trying them out, and now I’ve bought several in different colors. They aren’t super soft, but they are comfy and look nice. I’m 6’1” ~220 pounds, and the XL slim fit still has plenty of room. I imagine the regular cut is incredibly boxy and oversized. The difference between polyester vs recycled polyester is inconsequential. I typically buy expensive golf shirts, and these definitely aren’t as nice. They are a fraction of the cost though and a great “beater” work shirt / hang out shirt. It’s nice wearing something that looks and feels decent, but if something happens to it, you can toss and it and pick up another for the cost of a chipotle burrito.
