The twelfth and final adventure for the Swallows and Amazons crew. The very clean 1st printing book is fine with no other marks or inscriptions. The text block edges are clean with only an isolated piece of spotting to the bottom edge. End papers very bright and attractive. The otherwise very good jacket is not contemporaneous to the book given the publisher's list to the rear, but is in all other respects identical to that of the first printing. It has some staining to the front flap. .

Terms of sale
We aim to offer a friendly and professional service and make your purchase as pleasant an experience as possible. We are more than happy to take the time to speak to you or email you about any aspects of a book you are interested in. Further photographs of any book can be supplied on request.
Please be aware of your cancellation rights as detailed elsewhere on this site and also our no-quibble returns guarantee.

Shipping terms
We hope you find the online purchasing process smooth. If you would like to pay in another way - e.g. by bank transfer or by card over the telephone - please get in touch by phone or email.
Free 48-hour tracked shipping within the UK for all orders.
In the UK, we normally use Royal Mail. POSTAGE IS FREE WITHIN THE UK.
Different postage rates are applied at checkout for customers ordering from outside the UK. The rates shown are INDICATIVE ONLY based on packages of up to 2kg. Exceptions will be discussed on a case by case basis. POSTAGE MAY BE ADJUSTED UP OR DOWN and you may receive a notification advising a change of charge to your payment method.
We deliberately recycle packaging. Your books will be given much care and attention before dispatch and will be sent in pre-used materials.
As a matter of course, all our books are cleaned sensitively, researched, catalogued, photographed and thus treated with the respect a vintage artefact deserves. We then re-cover most of our books in new, industry standard protective wrappers. These are inert, acid-free, and will not harm the book or dust jacket. We don't do this only if there is already a clean and serviceable wrapper on the book, or if to remove a previous covering would cause damage.
