About This Item
Macmillan, 1947. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Stated first printing of this scarce title, whose author was the inspiration for Ian Fleming when he named his famous secret agent. A fine copy, bright and clean inside and out. In a very good plus dust jacket (front flap clipped at top and bottom, but $3.75 price intact along top side edge as usual) with minor loss at spine ends and corners, and slight rubbing at the folds. A superior copy of a title that is rapidly becoming difficult to find in collectible condition.
