First US edition hardback with a full 1 to 10 number sequence indicating a first printing. Stated First Edition. Bumps to head and tail of book spine. Price still on dustjacket. Rough-cut leading edges on pages, common in American books. Volume Two of the Baroque Cycle. The book contains two novels: Bonanza and Juncto that take place concurrently during the span 1689-1702. Rather than present one then the other, the author has interleaved sections of one with sections of the other so that the two stories move forward in synchrony. “In the year 1689, a cabal of Barbary galley slaves – including one Jack Shaftoe, aka King of the Vagabonds, aka Half-Cocked Jack, lately and miraculously cured of the pox – devises a daring plan to win freedom and fortune. A great adventure ensues…” PLEASE NOTE: This will be an extremely heavy parcel as the book weighs in excess of 1.3Kg unpacked.
