Goodbye To All That An Autobiography 2nd Revised Robert Graves by Robert Graves, Paul Fussell 9780385093309, 0385093306 instant download after payment.

Robert Graves records the events of his life up to the age of thirty-three when he left his native land for Marjorca. Originally published 1929, and recounting Graves's service in the First World War, it includes an introduction by Paul Fussell, who served in the Second World War.
This the revised, 1957, edition.
Prologue, by Robert Graves
I partly wrote, partly dictated, this book twenty-eight years ago during a complicated domestic crisis, and with very little time for revision. It was my bitter leave-taking of England where I had recently broken a good many conventions; quarrelled with, or been disowned by, most of my friends; been grilled by the police on a suspicion of attempted murder; and ceased to care what anyone thought of me.
Reading GOOD-BYE TO ALL THAT over again, for the first time since 1929, I wonder how my publishers escaped a libel action.
Domestic crises are always expensive, but the book sold well enough in England and the United States, despite the Depression, which had just set in, to pay my debts and leave me free to live and write in Majorca without immediate anxiety for the future. The title became a catch-word, and my sole contribution to Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations.
A good many changes have here been made in the text —omission of many dull or foolish patches; restoration of a few suppressed anecdotes; replacement of the T. E. Lawrence chapter by a longer one written five years later; correction of factual mis-statements; and a general editing of my excusably ragged prose. Some proper names have been restored where their original disguise is no longer necessary.
If any passage still gives offence after all those years, I hope to be forgiven.
Deyd,
