Some edge wear and creasing to top and bottom of jacket and spine, some slight yellowing to white parts of jacket, corners slightly bruised. price clipped, no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy of quite a scarce book. 450pp. A leech, a pirate, a predator, an anti Christ, a public benefactor and the fisherman's friend, such is Gillespie Strang in this remarkably powerful Scottish novel. Gillespie is the harsh prophet of the new breed of Scottish entrepreneur, prepared to use any means to achieve his insatiable ambition amongst the nineteenth century fishing communities of the west coast.
