Comments & Further Information

A US paperback edition in very good condition for its age.  Undated but circa 1966.  This book bears the Gold Medal number d1669, making it a second printing.

Age tanning to pages.   There is some disclolouration to the leading edges of the pages, not affecting page faces.  The covers are showing signs of wear to the extremities and the rear cover is rather grubby.  Reading creases to spine.
