Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Thus. One of the Flag-Lieutenant series, as stated on the band round the front cover and spine of the dust jacket. This is a half decent copy although a little dirty looking at the page block edge and on the front fly leaf, which also has a plate from the "Novel" Lib…rary with some library booking in and out stamps down it, stuck on. There are also a few library stamps, quite faded now, on the page block edges and a further one inside the book, on page 83 to be precise. Internally the pages themselves are actually pretty clean, it's just the page block edge really that lets the book down somewhat. The dust jacket is bright enough, albeit quite edge worn, chipped and with some minor loss at the extremities. It has not been price clipped although, unfortunately, the flaps, front and rear, have been stuck down to the paste down pages. Could be unstuck with care not to cause damage, but probably best left as is. In all, not a terrible copy of a very scarce book which is at least a good reading copy and not too bad as a collectable copy if you accept that it is nowhere near perfect.
