SIGNED BY DAVID without inscription directly to the title page; a beautiful well-crafted early signature. True 1957 Lutterworth 1st edition but bookplate (W.H. Smith & Son Library) on front pastedown. Condition of book is good with clean text, actually feels unread, and blemishes on the boards as shown in my photos. Dust jacket is price intact but has numerous closed tears and edgewear. I've added a new mylar cover and perhpas you will agree that the cover still retains a fair amount of appeal. A truly scarce signed copy of David's 2nd published book. Expedited and international shipping are welcome; signed by author.

London: Lutterworth Press, [1956-63]. First Edition, first printings between 1956-63, with coloured frontispieces and a number of coloured and monochrome plates throughout. All in original cloth with gilt backs. A very good, clean set in dustwrappers - none are price clipped. The wrappers with some chipping to extremities. The first volume SIGNED by Attenborough without dedication to the title page. A very good, fresh set in the original colourful wrappers of Attenborough's earliest books, recording his 'Zoo Quest' animal-foraging expeditions in many different territories. A rare set by one of the leading presenters of all time.
