About this Item
This is a UK first edition hardcover published by Hodder & Stoughton in 1960 and the ONLY first edition online at the time of listing. The jacket is in Fine condition and is nice, bright and unclipped (12s 6d net). The book is Very Good with very slim reading slant (it sits straight on a shelf) and firm corners and spine ends. There is heavy page toning. There is wear to the inner front board and initials on the top page edges. It also has a feint musty odour from age / storage but nothing offensive and I mention for completeness. An overall handsome copy of this title which looks far better than described. The copyright page confirms the first printing in 1960. Seller Inventory # 010362

Store Description
All books in my store are my own and in my possession. I expect customers to read my listings fully and look at all photos and be aware of the terms. I will work with everyone to resolve issues but I expect the same courtesy back - if I don't reply to an email within 24 hours it means I haven't received it so you'll need to resend.
I charge shipping that reflects my actual costs. ABE only allows me to set one postage rate so I charge the rate for hardbacks sent in a box with bubble wrap and polystyrene peanuts. Where postage is less - eg a paperback or small hardback - I refund the difference once I get my receipts and know the exact cost. ALL UK parcels are tracked. if you live outside the UK tracking is NOT provided unless you choose priority mail. PRIORITY MAIL TRACKING IS IMMEDIATELY UPDATED otherwise I will only update ABE with UK tracking details on request, and only when 10 working days has passed. There will be times when, due to the value of the book, I will insist on priority mail and this will be clearly stated in my listing. If you ignore this, your order will be refused.
