Description:
London: Oxford University Press, 1961. First Edition . Hardcover. Good/Good. This is an ex-library copy, with all the expected stamps, labels, tape and pockets. However, the interior is clean and tidy, and the dust jacket isn't in bad condition overall. The jacket has light edgewear overall, but a large sticker pull on the spine where someone (not me!) removed the library label. The attached scan gives a better idea of condition. Synopsis: "For the King or for Parliament? This is the choice that confronts young Neil Carey. His elder brother Denzil, an ardent Royalist, is already at court, but Neil's cousin and great friend, Francis Vaughan, is a strong supporter of Parliament. Neil is reluctant to take part in the Civil War, but he follows his father in declaring his support for the King's cause, and with the fiery little soldier, Owen Price, rides off to join the Royalist army
