About This Item
London: HarperCollins Publishers, 1992-2006. First edition. Cloth. Fine/Fine. 9.5" by 6.5". Not Stated. Four excellent first edition, first impressions from Cornwell's popular Sharpe series, in the original unclipped dust wrappers. The first edition, first impressions of these four works in the publisher's original cloth bindings, with the original unclipped dust wrappers. Bernard Cornwell's popular historical novel series focuses on the "brilliant but wayward" protagonist Richard Sharpe and his progress in the British Army during the Napoleonic Wars. These exciting novels were published in non-chronological order, meaning that while Sharpe's Devil was published before the other three in this collection, it sits last in the order chronologically. This selection comprises: Sharpe's Trafalgar (2000); Sharpe's Prey (2001); Sharpe's Fury (2006); and Sharpe's Devil (1992). In the publisher's original cloth bindings, with the original unclipped dust wrappers. Externally, cloth is very smart. Internally, firmly bound. Marginal age toning to pages, which are otherwise clean. Odd spot to the fore edge of Sharpe's Devil. Dust wrappers are in bright and lovely condition. Fine
