This is a first edition, and first printing, of Ring of Bright Water, the famous book by Gavin Maxwell, first published in 1960.
It is about Maxwell's life in a remote house in coastal Scotland where he kept several wild otters as pets. It is considered a literary masterpiece, has been made into a film, and has sold at least 2 million copies. It remains one of the most successful books about wildlife ever written.
As you can see, the jacket is not in great shape.
Inside, on the back endpapers, there are 7 glue stains.
On the front, still clinging to the endpapers are clippings from a magazine article relating to the story.
The title page has two glue marks from where Gavin Maxwell's obituary was pasted in—it's still in the book but is loose.
But after taking all of that interest in it, this person never read the book. The spine is not broken, there are no marks of any kind on the inside pages.Note: If you are outside of North America, the quoted shipping price is for surface mail without tracking. For other options, please contact me.
