8vo., 255pp. Beautiful First British Edition. Bound in brown cloth with lettering in gilt on spine. Square, tight and clean with little or no wear. Very attractive unclipped dust jacket, (£2.95), has a faint crease on the lower front flap and some light spotting to the front flap edge. A touch of shelf-wear. Still quite fresh and bright with no chipping, toning, or tears. Crichton's fourth book, made into the underrated 1978 film starring Sean Connery and Donald Sutherland. A very pretty collectable copy at a great price.
