Contact seller5-star sellerSoft cover. Condition: Good. Walter Farley's long-running Black Stallion series continues in this atmospheric Florida Everglades adventure. First published in 1969, The Black Stallion's Ghost follows Alec Ramsay and the Black into unfamiliar and treacherous terrain, where a mysterious Frenchman, legends of a phantom horse, and t…he eerie landscape begin to blur the line between reality and nightmare. Farley combines suspense, action, and his signature understanding of horses to deliver one of the darker, more imaginative installments in the series. This vintage Random House paperback features the classic painted cover by Ruth Sanderson and includes the full original text with chapter listing. Book: Good. Cover shows edge rubbing, small chips at spine ends, and mild creasing. Light corner wear and surface rubbing. Interior pages are evenly toned but clean, with no writing or major defects. Binding remains secure with mild spine lean typical of vintage paperbacks. Copyright page states © 1969 with matching date on publication line. ISBN listed includes entries for hardcover, library binding, and 0-394-83919-6 (trade paperback) - the number printed on this copy. This is a later printing of the 1969 trade paperback edition; Random House paperbacks of the era do not typically carry number lines. Painted cover by Ruth Sanderson (illustrator).
