'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: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION! NOT a library discard; privately owned hardback book with dust jacket. The very good jacket is NOT price-clipped but it looks like the flaps had originally been glued inside the covers. There is some tanning which might be glue residue. The jacket looks very nice under the fresh mylar cover I've added. The book is sturdy and complete but there is a spine lean and some edgewear. There is the same staining inside the covers which looks like it might be glue residue . It's really nicer than it sounds. VALUE-PRICED! Seller Inventory # 40522-x-B101
