Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition 1st Impression. Hardcover. First Edition. First Impression. The Winter of the Birds. Message to previous owner signed by the author. Every night in the tall house at the corner of St. Saviour's Street old Mister Rudge watched the stars and waited for the terrible birds of steel which did not fly like other birds but ran on wires. And in the street below Edward Flack nerved himself for his nightly walk in the dark - for he was training to be a hero. But when the extraordinary Patrick Finn arrived in his battered taxi that was not a taxi, Edward's idea of heroism began to expand. It was Finn's example that changed the suspicious and hostile inhabitants of St. Saviour's to a real community, so that even Mister Rudge was no longer isolated in his tall house, and his vision of the menacing steel birds aroused not panic but comradeship. 204 pp. Signed by Author(s).
