Immortal Britain

Description

"...the object of this book is to attempt to apply the principle of deep-analysis to Britain so as to bring to the conscious mind the nature of that inward wound which is festering in our national sub-consciousness; the cure for which is essential to recover both our full physical strength and our clarity of vision." Contains some errors, e.g. (i) refers to L.A. Waddell as T.A. Waddell; (ii) Epping Forest is in North-East London, not North-West; (iii) the English Sovereign does not by custom seek permission to enter the 'City of London': 'In the City the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor takes precedence of all save the Sovereign, and when the Sovereign wishes to enter the City on state occasions the Lord Mayor waits at the boundary and proffers the City Sword point downwards; on receiving the Sword back the Lord Mayor bears it before the Sovereign.' --p.36, 'The City of London Official Guide', 2nd ed., ca. 1956.
