First edition, first printing. Publisher's original blue cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A lovely fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth and gilt bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very lightly rubbed dustwrapper that remains without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (25s net price). A superb example.
The farewell volume of Hornblower containing the author's last uncompleted novel and two short stories published here for the first time in book form.
