Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First impression. A nice, presentable copy with clean blue cloth boards with crisp titles to the spine, albeit there is a hint of a sun fade at the very edges. Gift inscription on the ffep which reads thus: "To Shona, Phill and Emma, Many Happy Rousa…y Days. Thankyou for a super holiday, love from David Lesley and Helen" so, evidently to some Orkney islanders. Otherwise the pages are clean throughout albeit with some toning/mild foxing to the outer page block edge. A little bit knocked at the corner tips and there's a small dent to the front board at the fore edge, towards the top corner. The dust jacket is clean and bright, not price clipped, although there is a little light edge wear at the corner tips and spine ends and a little toning to the inner flaps. A great copy.
