Item description from seller

An excellent copy of the eighth novel from H. C. McNeile's Bulldog Drummond series, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. Bound in the publisher's original red cloth, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. The ninth edition. First published in 1933. Written by Herman Cyril McNeile, a British soldier and author who often drew on his personal experiences in the trenches during the First World War. McNeile is most remembered for his Bulldog Drummond series, writing this collection under the pseudonym Sapper. This work features Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond, a veteran from the First World War who tires of his mundane life and becomes an adventure-seeking detective. The character has since appeared in novels, short stories, in plays, films, on television and in graphic novels. This particular story surrounds the murder of a Secret Service officer, with Bulldog Drummond teaming up with occasional-detective Ronald Standish to get to the bottom of it. This novel was adapted into a 1947 film starring Ron Randell and Gloria Henry, entitled 'Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back'. In the publisher's original red cloth binding, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, excellent, with light rubbing to joints and extremities. Dust wrapper is also very smart, with light edge wear and chips to the head and tail of the spine. Light marking and rubbing to wraps. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and a little age toned, as expected with this type of paper. Near Fine.…
