About This Item

Sheridan House. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1938. First American Edition. Hardcover. B00085V12I . A clean and pristine copy of the first American edition, with a bit of age-toning, but no deterioration of the paper. Thoroughly readable. The colorful jacket is only lightly edgeworn and is not price-clipped. A mylar Brodart cover now protects it. It is not clear to me if this is fiction or nonfiction, as the protagonist is not the author, but a man named Toby, who previously starred In a book named Yangtze Shipper. However, it looks like a well-researched travelogue and account of life aboard a C-class cruiser in the British Royal Navy and on shore in the Mediterranean basin. ; A clean and pristine copy of the first American edition of this account of life aboard a Royal Navy C-class cruiser and on shore in the Mediterranean basin in the 1920's, entre deux guerres. The pages are age-toned but sound. There are no markings or signs of use. The colorful jacket is lightly edgeworn, but it is not price-clipped, and it is now protected by a mylar Brodart cover. This appears to be an authentic travelogue, but with an overlay of fiction, as the protagonist is not the author but a man named Toby, who previously starred in Yangtze Skipper. Fast shipping, with tracking number provided. ; 251 pages .
