Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. Edges of covers damaged (both a little bald at top), spine slightly marked, edges spotted but a not un-presentable copy nevertheless in frayed and slightly marked, price-clipped dustwrapper. With the (Alan Anderson, "Call me Ishmael", and Will Carter, blue) book-labels of the bookseller and crime writer George Sims and inscribed by the author, "Roy Fuller - further inscribed for G & BS [i.e. George & Beryl Sims] in some restaurant or other, 26.v.82, with affectionate good wishes. R.F." Roy Fuller, poet, novelist and solicitor to the Woolwich, was often characterised by George Sims as "my friend and mentor" - Sims sent the manuscripts of his crime novels to him for detailed comment as part of his writing process; and he assembled a sizeable collection of Fuller's works, most of them, inevitably, inscribed. "George Garner, author and publisher's reader, with his beard, his untidy clothes and his room in Bayswater, is a likeable chap, but not the kind of man one would expect to get involved in a world of mystery and violence . . ." (dustwrapper blurb). Inscribed by Author(s).
