About This Item
First Edition, Advance Copy; A Very Good book in a Very Good dust jacket with minor rubbing to the panel and board edges and some light age-spotting to the text block. This is John Fowles personal copy, with his bookplate affixed to the front free paper; laid in are 3 letters, 2 from the publishers thanking him for his contribution to the book (he wrote the introduction to the South Cornwall, Devon, and Dorset section), and one from Greenpeace again thanking him for his participation. A unique collectible for the Fowles fan! Not remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; in a protective Mylar cover and will ship in a sturdy box.
