Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The First UK Printing published by Burke Publishing Co. Ltd., London in 1960. 8vo., black boards lettered in blue to spine; originally unclipped publisher's wrapper designed by 'Cullen' (8s 6d net); The BOOK is in near-Fine condition ; light bumping…to the spine ends and mild offsetting to endpapers; internally clean ; The WRAPPER is in Very Good++ or better condition with minor shelf wear and marking; rubbed along spine and flap folds with tiny losses at the spine tips. No toning to the spine. A clean, bright copy in the unrestored wrapper. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. Continuing on from Moore's previous novel, Wheel in Space, Captives of the Moon was written at the height of the Cold War - a fact which is evident in its subject matter in which a nuclear explosion close to the American lunar base is blamed on the Russians. Setting out on a rescue mission, the two protagonists arrive on the moon to discover that it was the Americans, and their nuclear testing, which caused the bomb to explode - and the Russians are quick to reciprocate. Patrick Moore was particularly revered for his expertise in Moon observation. Indeed, his first work on the subject Guide to the Moon (later retitled Patrick Moore on the Moon), was written in 1952, and his first work of Fiction, The Master of the Moon, appeared shortly after. The Moon remained his specialist subject throughout his life. A very elusive title more-so with the striking wrapper. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.
