Ex library with usual stamps, dockets and defects. Some edge wear and rubbing to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners rubbed and bruised, jacket cockled, not price clipped (£6.95), some yellowing to page block, no personal inscriptions, internally reasonably clean and tight, overall a reading copy only. 157pp. Prolific children's author Robert Atkinson Westall (1929-93), has set his sci fi novel 'Urn Burial' in the Pennine chain of northern England, near the Scottish border. The Cumbrian fell country is an isolated land of rain, prehistoric ruins, and heather. The sheep that run loose on the steep hills are still a major source of income, and shepherding is a respected profession. Life remains primitive on the fells, where two children find an ancient alien buried in a cairn.
