Description:
The first print in a cream cloth binding and red endpapers of the author's acclaimed master work. Made into a memorable romantic war film that by turns is charged with emotion and the wages of war. Signed by the author on the title page. No other inscriptions or mark. A little toning of the book block (mainly on the top edge) and a little knock to the tips of the bottom corner of the binding. The jacket is virtually without fault, just a small crease at the head of the spine. Not price clipped and the colour is vibrant. A book that is both rare and desirable. A modern classic.
