'Cornwell's narration is quite masterly and supremely well-researched.' Observer
‘The best battle scenes of any writer I’ve ever read, past or present. Cornwell really makes history come alive.’ George R.R. Martin

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Signed by the author at the title page. A First Printing of the UK edition, published in London by Collins in 1988. A decent copy while not exactly eye-catchingly Fine. Very minor lean with reading crease along the backstrip or spine. The text-block is toned as usual and browned at the margins. Nice clean covers, however, and free from spotting or foxing, and no previous owner names etc. A VG copy. The protected dustjacket is unclipped. Lightly tanned at the flaps and minor sunning to the spine but it presents very well indeed and is otherwise Fine. Overall a very acceptable copy of what is now one of the harder-to-find titles in the series, particularly signed. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 1901201245
