About This Item
Hodder & Stoughton, London, 1971. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Signed by Author(s). 1st Edition. First Edition (first printing). This copy signed by the author by way of a title-specific bookplate pasted to the front free endpaper. 8vo. 416pp. Black cloth lettered in gold at the spine and with the author's holograph signature gold-stamped to the base of the upper board, and with the publisher's purple top-edge stain, which is just a little faded in places. Backstrip ends gently bruised. Some spotting to the fore edge, and a touch more to four or five preliminary leaves, and to the lower margins of a dozen text leaves. A very good copy in virtually fine non-price-clipped dust wrapper. The author's sixth novel, and only his second not to feature spymaster George Smiley..
