First Editions (first printing). Individual volumes as follows: 'Border Country'. A novel (1960). First edition. 8vo. 351pp. Red cloth lettered in gold at the spine. Very good indeed in the striking pictorial dust wrapper designed by G.J.Galsworthy, non-price-clipped but with a touch of minor wear to the spine ends and corner tips, and three or four short edge-tears. 'Second Generation'. A novel (1964). First edition. 8vo. 347pp. Blue cloth lettered in gold at the spine. A trace of light partial toning to the free endpapers. Very good indeed in the pictorial dust wrapper designed by Ionicus, non-price-clipped but lightly toned at the spine panel, with a narrow strip of light toning and spotting to the upper edge, and several tiny nicks but nothing close to significant loss. 'The Fight for Manod'. A novel (1979). First edition. 8vo. 207pp. Brown cloth lettered in gold at the spine. Former owner name and date inked to the head of the pastedown (and entirely obscured by the wrapper flap). A virtually fine copy in virtually fine non-price-clipped pictorial dust wrapper designed by Ionicus. A super set of the author's noted trilogy of 'border' novels (respectively his first, second and fourth novels), set for the most part in working class South Wales and in academic Oxfordshire.
