by C.S. Forester
Michael Joseph, 1938.
1st edition. 284 pages + 3 advert pages.
good condition hardback in the original red cloth binding and dust-jacket. light foxing to fore-edge and just a hint of tiny foxing marks to some pages.
the binding is bright and the silver lettering clear and not faded. light strip of browning to the inner third of front and rear free end-papers. a slight forward lean.
the Rowland Hilder designed dust-jacket has slight loss to top and foot of spine, and a little edge worn at the top edge and corners, otherwise complete and not price-clipped. the underside of the jacket is quite heavily browned.
