About This Item
This is a near-perfect copy of Mr. Britling Sees It Through, the 28th book written by the great English writer H.G. Wells (1866-1946). It is known as his "masterpiece of the wartime experience" and was a huge best-seller.
It was published in the UK in September 1916. It was released in the US in January 2017. This is one of the subsequent numerous printings of the first edition.
It never had a dust jacket. It is dark red boards with the title impressed on the front cover. One color illustrations at the front. The rest of the 443 pages are unadorned. There is bright gold lettering on the spine.
The paper of this copy has darkened somewhat. There is a tiny bit of dappling to the cover. This book has been read but there are no marks on any of the pages; it is in superb condition.
