320pp. Dark green cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering to the spine. 8vo. Volume is neat, clean, bright and tight throughout. In its original glossy dust wrapper, a little shelf worn and lightly bumped around the head of the spine.
First published in 1923, Moleskin Joe is a sequel to Patrick MacGill's two earlier autobiographical novels, Children of the Dead End and The Rat Pit. Placed in the context of the life of the navvy at the beginning of the 20th century, MacGill writes with his usual flair, the people of the novel becoming individual characters with a permanent place in the history of working class literature.
