About This Item
Hutchinson of London, 1964. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fair/Fair. 272 pages. Ex-library with consequent heavy usage, debris and markings and annotations. This is the story of judicial corruption in England. Cecil himself was a county court judge as a hugely successful novelist and author. The dustjacket is much creased and worn. It is scruffy but sure. The cloth cover has the remains of tape and storage/ shelving marks. The front bottom edge has a depression. The spine has shelf pulls. There are Dewey classification annotations on the dj spine and the copyright page. The guttering along the inside back cover is open but the general security of the binding is confident. The condition of the contents is relaxed. Pages are clear, handled, fixed to the binding, complete and confident. The book is comfortable and benign. fk. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
