Set in Central Africa, Biggles is sent on an urgent assignment to search for the elusive black elephant. Written by William Earl Johns, an English First World War pilot and writer of adventure stories, who wrote under the pen name Capt. W. E. Johns. He is best known for creating the fictional air-adventurer Biggles. Illustrated by Leslie Stead, a British artist and illustrator who worked on many of the books in this series. In the original red cloth binding. Externally, smart with minor rubbing and light bumping to the extremities. Original unclipped dust wrapper is also smart with light wear and minor chipping to the extremities. Minor sunning with the odd small spot to the panels.
