London, United Kingdom: Collins , 1983. Book. Very Good +. Hardcover. Signed by Author(s). First Edition/First Printing. A square solid tight clean very carefully read copy. The fore and top edge of the text block are tanned which is not unusual for UK editions, possibly a bit worse than most. There is a small almost invisible see through stain to the top edge of the text block. The jacket is PC. This copy has been signed by Follett on the title page. I believe that the UK edition is the true first of this title. THIS COPY IS IN MY POSSESSION AND WILL NORMALLY SHIP NEXT DAY..
