About This Item
London: Longmans, Green & Co, 1900. No dustwrapper, some bumping and minor shelf-wear to spine ends and corners of blue cloth-covered boards, binding just starting to split at the page between the black free front endpaper and the half-title, which has a previous owner's name in pencil. Minor foxing to outer pages, otherwise a good clean tight copy, with gilt titles on spine and front board all still bright, of this hard-cover book. A tale of revolution in a (fictitious) Mediterranean country, this was Churchill's only novel. This is the first UK edition, one of 1500 copies, published by Longman, Green & Co on 30th January 1900 (a larger [4000 copies] edition was published earlier in the US in November 1899). 345pp, 2pp adverts.. First UK Edition. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
