Sobre este artículo
London: Cassell and Co., 1941-1946. First English Edition Set (Cohen A142-A227) (Woods A66- A114). Hardcover in Dust Jackets. Very Good. 8vo. This is a very good First English edition set, in correct, unclipped dust jackets with very moderate wear and excellent shelf appearance. INTO BATTLE is the rare First State of the First Printing, per Cohen, with the printed numerals missing on Page 78. The dust jacket has fractional loss at the spine head and some scattered edge-chipping but is essentially fine. The book is virtually mint, save for a lovely bookplate from The Book Society on the front pastedown. THE UNRELENTING STRUGGLE is the First State of the First Printing, per Cohen, with the misprinted numerals on Page 281. The dust jacket has closed tears on the lower edges of the front face and very minor chipping to the spine tail. The contents are otherwise fine, with foxing to the prelims and fore-edges. ONWARDS TO VICTORY has a former-owner name inked discreetly on the front free endpaper, else fine. THE DAWN OF LIBERATION has very light, scattered fore-edge foxing, else fine. VICTORY is the First State of the First English Edition with the misprinted page numeral on on Page 177 missing the 1, as per Cohen. SECRET SESSION SPEECHES dust jacket is lightly edge-chipped at the spine head, else fine. Increasingly rare thus.
