Title: Have you anything to declare?
Description: This morning I had the great pleasure to listen to a newly discovered and restored edition of "Desert Island Discs", via the BBC online. This episode featured the great Alec Guinness. As is traditional at the end of each episode, the guest is asked what book, other than the Bible, a complete encyclopedia and the complete works of Shakespeare would they most like to have whilst marooned on their desert island. Alec said he first chose Maurice Baring's "Nothing To Declare". He then thought that this was rather short for a long stay and said his choice would then be "The Oxford Book Of English Verse" by Arthur Quiller-Couch. I then set about to find M. Baring's "Nothing To Declare", only to find a variation of this title on your wonderful website. Could the great Mr. guinness have recalled the title incorrectly or could this be a separate edition?
