About This Item
New York, NY Penguin Books, 1985. Paperback First Edition Thus (1985), not directly stated, but implied by lack of subsequent printings cited, as is often the case with Penguin, but not universally so. First Edition Thus (1985), not directly stated, but implied by lack of subsequent printings cited, as is often the case with Penguin, but not universally so. Very Good in Wraps: shows indications of careful use: light wear to the extremities; some rubbing to the wrapper covers; the text pages have tanned somewhat, due to aging; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of any creases to the covers. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A carefully used copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing light wear and minor cosmetic flaws. Remains clean, sturdy, presentable. NOT a Remainder, but a local bookseller has placed a tiny read dot at the bottom edge of the text pages, to distinguish 'new' from 'used' books, so this should be considered a flaw. NOT a Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. (7.7 x 5.1 x 0.75 inches). 352 pages. Language: English. Weight: 9 ounces. Hardback with DJ. The Heroic Age", is about a group of children aged six to fourteen (the 'heroic' age) who are refugees of the Greek Civil War.
