Sobre este artículo
Howard Baker, 1970. 1st Edition 1st Impression. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Blue cloth boards with gilt titles to spine. 362pp. Boards very slightly rounded at corners; internally neat, clean, bright and tight, barring a little spotting on text block edges. In its original, gloriously and humorously illustrated dust jacket (faded, a little chipped and rubbed at extremities, single crease along upper edge). An indispensable biographical reference work for collectors and enthusiasts of British juvenile literature, containing biographical details of over 2000 authors and editors, including pen names. The product of 15 years of research, it includes many new names not previously credited with contributions to the genre - whether your interest is G A Henty, Rider Haggard, Frank Richards of Billy Bunter Fame, or the creator of Tiger Tim stories, you will find the information you need.
