Description

Published by Coward-McCann, Inc, New York; 1957. First American Edition. Signed. Condition: Near Fine Very Good.

Bound in original beige cloth boards with green cloth spine and red lettering to the spine. Other than some slight darkening and bumping to the edges, the binding is tight and square and in smart condition. Inside, the pages are clean and bright with just a touch of toning. The book is signed and dated on the ffep by the author (please note we have been unable to verify this signature).

The book is housed in the original dust jacket, with the price of $3.95 to the front flap. It was designed by C. Walter Hodges. It is in smart condition, with just a touch of chipping to the edges, including a small tear to the top edge measuring aprox. 1cm, and some darkening to the spine and edges. In spite of this the jacket is attractive and complements the book well.

Overall, this is a smart example of this first edition by Dorothy Charles, which tells the story of witchcraft and conspiracy during the English Civil War.
