About This Item
London: World Books, 1940. Book Club edition issued by World Books in 1940. A lot of creasing and tears to the edges of unclipped dustwrapper, minor bumping to spine ends and corners of light green boards, some old water-markings to boards but green titles thereon are still clear. Otherwise a good tight copy of this hard-cover book, the second novel by the author, originally published in 1939. The story is set in South Africa around the time of the Great Trek. 444pp.. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hard Cover. Good/Fair. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
