Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Black boards with white lettering on spine. On top of the text block, there is a stamp "Property of the US Navy". The first FEP is torn from the book. On the front paste down, someone has pasted a summary of Gallery's capture of the U-505. This could summary could have been from the dust jacket. It is hard to tell. At the rear of the book, someone taped a picture of Gallery on the rear paste down. This page looks like it was from the DJ for sure. Owner's name stamped on half title page. Not particularly tight or loose.
