Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. This is a UK first edition / second issue, with the words 'First published 1957' on the copyright page. (This is the red board edition, which was preceded by a blue board edition). A really nice copy. The jacket has a tiny (6mm x 3mm) pale-brown mark (barely visible) next to the author's name, and an even smaller and fainter one on the spine. There are four tiny (pin-headsized) pale-brown dots on the side of the text block. Slight sunning to the top and bottom of the text block.These are minor faults. The jacket has no nicks or tears, and is not price clipped (it shows the £8.95 Heinemann Group price sticker). The red boards are clean and unmarked.The silver gilt on the spine is dazzlingly bright and fresh. The pages have no foxing. We protect all our books with a removable plastic cover, and send them with care. Seller Inventory # 001039
