soft. Condition: Very Good. Publication: London, Longman Group Limited, 1976 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 188. Condition Report: Very Good. The paperback binding remains structurally sound and tightly bound, though it exhibits light shelf-wear to the extremities, rubbing to the spine ends, and a slight upward curl to the front wrapper indicating previous careful reading. The spine itself remains uncreased. Internally, the text-block sits entirely square. The pages exhibit mild, uniform age-toning typical of the paper stock from this era, but remain clean, bright, and entirely free from foxing, handling marks, or significant blemishes. Catalogue Note: Sixth impression of the Longman Imprint Books edition, first published in 1969. This particular copy is notable for its provenance, bearing two signatures from the author on the title page. Barstow has flat-signed his name at the top right, and immediately below the title text, provided a presentation inscription reading "Best, Donald," followed by a secondary signature.
