About This Item
London: Michael Joseph, 1959. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good/Good. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Parkes and Wyndham are one and the same so the sleeve notes detailing the collaboration between them are somewhat disingenuous. Four short stores have been stitched together by him/them to create a novel of 'Troon' space exploration. Stock toned, but otherwise all in general good internal order, with no significant marking. Stamp of the Reserve Fleet Education Office to fep, suggesting institutional use, but no other indications thus. Black boards lightly bumped but showing minimal wear, with light cream titling to spine. G- d/j is well worn to all edges with closed tears, internal repairs and small loss head and foot of spine. 12mo. 192pp

About Dodman Books
Formerly Journobooks, my original speciality was books about journalism, journalists, newspapers and other media (hence the name) and I still have a good stock of hard-to-find books in that field. Over time I have added a wide and eclectic variety of other collectible volumes alongside a general secondhand stock. I am a collector as well as a seller so know all about the pitfalls of online buying as well as the joys. I will try to make your buying experience as easy and as pleasant as possible.
