A wonderfully droll anti-war, anti-government screed, not Orwell but entertaining never the less. No previous ownership marks. A very clean, attractive, copy.which has one small, nearly invisible blemish to front board, else as new. Near fine.. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Faux Leather. Near Fine. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
