About This Item
London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1989. First Edition, First Printing . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. The interior of the book is crisp and clean, showing no marks or wear. The blue covers are fresh, with just a touch of wear at tips and corners. The gilt spine lettering is still bright. There is a small remainder dot on the bottom of the text block, but this is the only flaw. The dust jacket is price-clipped, but is otherwise in very good condition.
