hardcover, all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book keeps postage costs down.

Three volumes originally published seperately by Hodder and Stoughton, and subsequently bound into one hardbacked volume with very nice decorative boards. Her Majesty's Minister Dated 1909, no dates on other two titles. Overall in very good condition with no fading or damage to decorative boards. Principle fault is that page edges have been trimmed to make them fit the boards, pages are not always straight and in places the text comes very close to the edge but as far as we can see there is no text missing. There is some browning to pages. Happy to supply photos on request. All three stories appear to be scarce. Heavy book, please inquire for postage outside the UK.
