Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details. Hardcover with dust jacket. DJ is in rough shape with numerous large chips and tears, creases. The underside of the jacket was neatly reinforced with masking tape along the top and bottom edges, over the decades the glue…has bled through to the front of the jacket. Despite the rough DJ it did a very fine job protecting the book underneath. Beveled red cloth boards are clean and bright and the gilt text shines like new. The only issues with the exterior of the book is a few small dents in the cloth. Internal binding is good and text pages are tight. No hinge issues, no handwriting, no library markings, no bookplates, no signatures present. Paper is toned due to age and there is some foxing which is mainly limited to the end pages. The second end page is the darkest out of all the toned pages.

Surtees, was an author whose books ran counter to the currents of his age in their lack of idealism, absence of sentimentality, and almost wilful flouting of conventional moralism.
