About This Item
Humanity Books First let's talk about the condition. It has a couple of leaves of photographs and one of them is loose, otherwise it's in very good condition. Now let's talk about the interesting part. The author, title and publisher are found only on the covers. The text block is actually a book called "The Millionth Chance, The Story of the R101" by James Leasor. Obviously the wrong cover has been applied to the text, no? But it gets more interesting. The seller can find no evidence of a book of this title by this author. A search of the Humanity Books list of publications does not show it. On the rear cover of this book are titles "Also Available" which WERE published by Humanity. Humanity Books is an imprint of Prometheus Books. The seller's email enquiry about this book to Prometheus has not been answered. And it gets even curiouser. On the rear cover, in the barcode, is an ISBN (0099474387). But this ISBN refers to a different book entirely, and the name of this book is "The Nonesuch" by Georgette Heyer. The nonesuch? Could this have been deliberate?. Unknown. Mass Market Paperback. Good/No Jacket as Issued. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
