First UK edition, first printing. Publisher's original dark grey cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Sally Davies illustrated dustwrapper. A near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with a little dustiness to the closed text block are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the lightly rubbed, creased and spine faded dustwrapper that is otherwise free from loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£3.25 net to the front flap).
