"Spithead, 1784. His majesty's Frigate Undine sets sail for India and the seas beyond. Europe may be at peace-but in colonial waters the promises of statesmen count for little and the bloody struggle for supremacy still goes on. Richard Bolitho would have cause to remember his admirals words: 'The task I am giving you would be better handled by a squadron.'."

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A superb copy in fine condition in an unclipped and near fine dustjacket. This copy is signed by Alexander Kent on the title page--signature only. An unmarked and clean copy inside and out. Mapped endpapers. No evidence of previous ownership. The dustjacket is complete and has only some very shallow edge wear to the head and heel of the spine and would otherwise be fine. No darkening to the spine as usually found. A great collectible copy. One of the earlier Nautical fiction "Bolitho" novels--great adventure. Alexander Kent--Douglas Reeman--one and the same. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # cfe17011
