About This Item
Ivor Nicholson & Watson, 1936. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good/Poor. First Impression of the First UK edition. Original black cloth with faded white titles at the spine. pp. 431. An important novel at the time in which the author - whose previous books had been burned by the Nazis in a formal ceremony - portrays Nazism as an epidemic and criticizes Hitler an a Hysteric. Now a rare book in any condition, this copy is reasoanble - bumped at the corners and pushed at the spine tips. Off-setting from the flaps to the endpapers. The top-edge is darkened and dust-stained, the other edges (of the block) browned and a trifle grubby. A tight and square copy, howeve, and free from owner names or library markins etc. The dustjacket has numerous chips at the spine ends and corners, some internal sellotape repairs and the rear panel is stained and browned. Poor condition jacket but it is not price-clipped and the illustration at the front cover is striking. Scarce item.
