About This Item
This is a copy of the first American edition of Rule Britannia.
This book may have been read, but all of the wear is to the dust jacket, which you can see in the photos. The covers are untouched; the boards, which have a bit of a sparkle to them, are bright red with silver and gold lettering on the spine.
This was Daphne du Maurier's last novel. It is set in a fictional near-future in which the UK's withdrawal from the EEC has brought the country to the verge of bankruptcy. du Maurier meant it to be funny and satirical; many people thought it was overly mocking. But, in light of Brexit, it's now pertinent.
