Back cover torn along the spine fold about 1 1/2" from top down. A few chips from ends of spine. Red page edges. This book looks like the cover and pages had detached and the cover was r…eglued.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Post-apocalyptic science fiction novel written in 1956 by the English author Sam Youd under the pen name John Christopher. The plot concerns a virus that kills off all forms of grass, including rice and wheat. Originally published as The Death of Grass it was subsequently serialized… in The Saturday Evening Post as No Blade of Grass. Its publication in the magazine provoked considerable reaction amongst its readers on account of its portrayal of government's response to the unfolding worldwide crisis. Cover art by Hector Garrido. Rare and collectible. Mass market paperback. States "First Avon Printing June 1967" on the copyright page, therefore presumed first edition, first printing thus. Publisher book number S283, cover price $0.60. This is a used book. Pages are clean and bright with no markings, notes, or highlighting. Covers show only minor shelf wear and are not creased. No owner's marks or bookplates, not ex-library. Price stickers on front cover and inside front cover. Remainder dot sticker on lover spine. Binding is tight and square. Corners very lightly bumped.
