Description

London: The Bodley Head, 1961. 93 pages. "Re-Tellings of Hero Tales Series." Square solid binding, sharp corners, structurally vg or better but has library tape stains to boards and eps, black marks along edges from former library mylar cover. Other library additions are stamps, pocket on rear ep, penmark to top of bookblock signifying discard. Dust jacket is bright and attractive, very minimal wear to extremities, only traces of spine label, price-clipped. Looks very nice in new archival-quality Brodart. Contents predominantly clean and bright, although I did notice the very occasional marginal fingerprint. There is a closed edge tear next pocket to rear ep. "In this dramatic retelling of the great Anglo-Saxon poem, Rosemary Sutcliff recounts Beowulf's three great battles: with Grendel, with the Sea-Woman, and finally in his old age with the Fire-Drake."
