Item description from seller

First Irish edition (Talbot Press 1938), one of the author's less-common titles, and even less-common with dustwrapper. Price-clipped dustwrapper (but original price of 3/6 on spine) has been strengthened on the back with masking tape, a three-inch tear to top of back panel has been mended with clear tape. Minor bumping to spine ends and corners of green boards, but otherwise a good clean tight copy of this hard-cover book. Unlike most of the author's stories, this one is set in the distant past; in Gaul and in Ireland in the first century AD, the second part of the book is based on the ancient Irish tale of the Destruction of the Hostel of Da Derga (Togail Bruidne Dá Derga), part of the Ulster Cycle. 296pp. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
