Our Slightly Foxed Editions are each published in a limited, numbered edition of 2,000 copies, available only from us and a few selected booksellers. Apart from being memorable reads, they look delightful on the shelves and are highly collectable – some earlier titles in the series are already fetching high second-hand prices.
In addition to the SFEs, we produce our Plain Foxed Editions. All bound in duck-egg blue cloth, the PFEs have been reissued in the same neat pocket format as the original SFEs and will happily fill in some of the gaps in your collection.

Just finished Country Boy. What a marvellous read. I grew up in Suffolk and remember the class differences. I passed the 11+ but the Headmaster said that since my father was a lorry driver I’d never amount to anything better so I was consigned to the local secondary school. Luckily when I was 15 my parents emigrated to the USA, where the differences in English accents did not mark me as “lower class”. I was able to go to university, just like the Country Boy, earned two degrees, and made a success of my life. Some relatives I left in England are still jealous! I still remember the gas lights and outdoor dry toilets of my first home. Even though my experiences were 40 years on from the author’s, it all rang very true. Thanks for letting me buy a copy. Just loved it!
